"Made in the USA" doesn't always mean every raw material originates here.

Some specialized raw materials are sourced globally because domestic availability, quality specifications, or supply reliability may not consistently meet the requirements needed for our manufacturing processes.

By partnering with trusted suppliers around the world and manufacturing, processing, and packaging our products in the United States, Carus helps ensure the quality, consistency, safety, and reliability our customers depend on.

Whether it's protecting our employees, supporting our customers, or delivering products that perform as intended, safety remains at the center of everything we do.
