Commitment to Quality & American Ingenuity Make BrassCraft® the Professional’s Choice in Plumbing Products for Nearly 70 Years

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

NOVI, MI – For both new installation and repair work, professional plumbers and DIY homeowners alike rely on durable and safe fittings, connectors and valves. Since 1946, BrassCraft Manufacturing has been the professional’s choice, becoming a trusted partner in providing a full range of water, gas, faucet and toilet supplies, tubing and more.

Now serving the fourth generation of plumbers with dependable products, BrassCraft Manufacturing has set the standard in quality and ingenuity for the industry. With products designed, machined and assembled in the U.S., BrassCraft Manufacturing remains committed to the ideals of its founder, Robert Zell, with an acute focus on product innovation, efficiency, safety and supporting the business growth of professional plumbers.

“From the wall to the fixture or appliance, our products hook up more water and gas connections than any other brand in the industry,” said Joe Gross, president of BrassCraft Manufacturing. “Ensuring the safety and reliability of these critical connections is a top priority for our customers, and we take that responsibility very seriously. Both professionals and DIY homeowners know they can trust BrassCraft® products to do the job right, every time.”

The pioneer behind the first flexible, one-piece supply line for plumbing connections, BrassCraft Manufacturing revolutionized the plumbing industry 68 years ago, saving professional and DIY plumbers time, material and money by eliminating the cumbersome, time-consuming connections previously required with rigid brass or iron pipe. That legacy of innovation continued with the launch of the one-piece water stop and other design and manufacturing innovations that have set the production standard for the industry.

Today, BrassCraft Manufacturing continues to excel in developing world-class, dependable products like its Speedi Plumb PLUS® polymer braided connectors, along with the Safety+PLUS® excess flow valves and ProCoat® corrosion-resistant gas connectors, which recently won First Place in the 2014 Innovation Awards by Home Improvement Executive. The company has also been at the forefront of the industry in meeting the new no-lead laws with a full range of high-quality compliant products, helping customers to meet government mandates as quickly and efficiently as possible.

“We’ve designed our products to provide the fast, reliable and safe connections professionals demand to help ensure customer satisfaction and reduce call-back repairs,” Gross said. “At the same time, our products give homeowners the ability to buy what the pros buy to make every DIY project a success.”

In addition to providing customers with quality, reliable products, BrassCraft Manufacturing is also committed to investing in the future of the plumbing industry and supporting the next generation of skilled tradesmen and women. The company will award at least 100 $1,500 scholarships this year alone to help plumbing apprentices enrolled in accredited training programs complete their schooling to become journeyman plumbers.
