AUTUMN ROUND-UP Gasser Chair Company
“America’s First and Only Casino Seating Manufacturer”
T
here seems to be some discrepancy on the label “manufacturer” and how it may differ from “assembler”. While there may be a number of casino seating products that are assembled
in America using foreign manufacture components, there is only one company that is truly American manufactured: Gasser Chair Company.
Why American Manufacturing Matters
It was early in Gasser’s 75-year tenure when the key components of their business model took hold – enduring work ethic, sound engineering principles and meticulous attention to detail. While purchasing pre-manufactured components or using overseas labor would have saved Gasser millions of dollars over the years, it became obvious that the savings did not outweigh the sacrifice to do so. Instead, Gasser has, and continues to expand their Youngstown, Ohio manufacturing campus
to carry forward these key components and offer seating products and services that exceed customer expectations; all while staying true to one of their core values… preserving American jobs. From cutting and bending raw extruded
aluminum to welding and powder coat. From molding foam cushions and backs to stamping metal brackets. It is all done at Gasser to ensure quality and give customers near limitless options and freedom on their seating selection. “Manufacturing the entire chair makes us true
chair experts. Control over the manufacturing process means we know not only how the chair is made, but how to customize, improve, and service,” says Mark Gasser, President of Gasser Chair Company. In addition to directly maintaining its
employees’ jobs, Gasser also supports countless other American jobs by sourcing materials domestically whenever possible. By controlling all manufacturing processes in-house, Gasser has a tight grip on quality and

the flexibility to offer custom seating solutions for its customers’ unique needs. It also allows Gasser to focus on their green initiatives and limit their carbon footprint. “It is important for us to understand and
continuously lessen the impact of manufacturing on the environment. In doing so we are able to stop unnecessary and harmful byproduct from entering the air, waterways, and landfills,” says Gasser. So, the difference between an “assembler” and
a “manufacturer”? Everything. Where was your chair made?
