American Recovery and Reinvestment Act ARRA logoOn the heels of an economic crisis, the President of the United States signed the American Recovery & Reinvestment Act (ARRA) in 2009 with the goal of:

  1. Spurring economic activity and invest in long-term growth
  2. Creating new jobs and save existing ones
  3. Fostering unprecedented levels of accountability and transparency in government spending

Subpart 25.6 is the Buy American Act provision of ARRA which requires the use of construction materials manufactured in the U.S. in projects funded by ARRA.

Manufacturing in the US since 1967.

Setra Systems is proud to announce that all of our room pressure monitors, pressure, humidity and current sensing products are manufactured in our Boxborough, MA facility in accordance with the definitions of this provision.*

The majority of Setra products are also compliant with the Buy American Act of 1933, which requires that the cost of components manufactured in the US exceed 50% of the total component cost and that the product itself be manufactured in the US.

Setra Products are manufactured locally at our facility in Boxborough, MA. Our ability to manufacture our products locally allows Setra to continue to help create American jobs which allows our company and our community to continue to prosper into the future.
