Brea, CA -- (SBWire) -- 02/04/2010 -- The majority of today’s small parts and control panel items - keypads, switches, lenses, plates, and more - are most affordable and accessible when purchased from foreign markets. American manufacturers know: It takes patience to deal with the makers of these necessary items.

The distance and language barriers that separate a Western purchasing department from an Eastern control panels manufacturer can not only be frustrating; they can consume a company’s valuable time and resources, even cutting into profits.

To address this problem, KEE Group - a control panels manufacturer with factory operations in China - established a U.S. division in 1998. The division, KEE Group USA, would support all of the company’s manufacturing facilities with North American-based engineering, sales support, and inventory management.

Now in its second decade, KEE Group USA continues to provide these services to companies who purchase the control panels manufacturer’s membrane switches, rubber keypads, hybrid keypads, plastic injection molded products, scratch resistant display lenses, product identification panels, capacitive switch film, and domed emblems.

According to one KEE Group USA representative, the division remains a welcome relief to countless domestic firms who prefer his company over other control panels manufacturers. "These products are used in items Americans use every day: remote controls, cameras, automobiles…"

"…So the companies who make them appreciate that their purchasing and customer service headquarters are located in the U.S. It eliminates any language barrier concerns, and because the inventory is located domestically, it ensures that orders are shipped and received in a timely manner."
