Chalfant provides customers with premium cable trays made in the USA. This initiative is powered by our compliance with the Build America Buy America Act, enacted in 2021.
American-Made Cable Trays Since 1945
Our BABA-compliant cable trays are produced in Avon, Ohio, reducing the need for you to source from international markets. Plus, with our convenient manufacturing location, we’re in a prime spot to easily transport products to you.

The Advantage of Sourcing BABA-Compliant Cable Trays
In addition to fueling domestic supply chains, complying with BABA enables us to provide the highest quality products to our customers. Advantages our customers receive because of our compliance standards include the following.
| Advantage | What It Means for You |
|---|---|
| Shorter lead times | Having the capability to manufacture domestically in Ohio allows us to deliver fast shipments. This eliminates the challenges and delays of dealing with overseas supply chains. |
| Eligibility for public and infrastructure projects | Utilizing Chalfant products gives contractors the opportunity to bid on and secure government contracts since they will be able to maintain BABA compliance. |
| Ongoing material availability | Sourcing overseas often brings risks of material availability. At Chalfant, since we keep production domestic, we’re able to store our inventory on the warehouse floor. This makes for quicker lead times and ensures your operations don’t miss a beat. |
| Rigorous quality control | Chalfant’s manufacturing process includes strict oversight, with materials checked against load specifications and safety standards. Domestic production keeps products aligned with U.S. code requirements. |
The bottom line: Manufacturing in Ohio keeps lead times short, inventory available, and your projects eligible for federal funding.
