RediHEAT Bags Have Always Been Sewn in the USA!!

I read with great interest the article that appeared in last week's New York Times.   The article's link is below:

http://www.nytimes.com/2013/09/30/business/a-wave-of-sewing-jobs-as-orders-pile-up-at-us-factories.html?_r=0

This article references sewing work that is beginning to return to the US.  The US consumer is starting to wise up to the conditions of sewing in light of the 1,000 + dead in a Bangladesh sewing operation.  In addition, the long lead times and quality gaps have US sewing operators starting to hire.  The US factories are more automated which has driven down the labor cost in the US.

When I first became involved with RediHEAT in 2009, I was pounded by suppliers who could do our sewing in China and save our company money.  I was visited by at least 50 sourcing agents at our booth a various trades shows.  Several agents even mocked me for making such a poor decision by not sourcing our goods overseas, and I heard comments that our demise was inevitable.  


While the promise of cheap labor is appealing, we never have moved our sewing outside of Cleveland, OH.  The driving force was volume and stubbornness.   While our volume has increase every year for the last four years, we have resisted the move to offshore our sewing. Our profit margins would have definitely increased by moving our work to China.  

This article highlights the movement of bringing manufacturing back to the US.  While overall number of jobs will never return, it is a great lesson on how innovative manufacturers can support a business model that long ago left for Asia.

Many folks throw around the slogan "made in the USA", but most consumers do not practice this in real life.  A simple walk down any isle at Walmart or Target will prove this point.  The consumers have spoken and Walmart and Target have answered.  

RediHEAT, is a small niche sewing company that sells a specialty product.  It has been difficult to run our business knowing that profits can be improved by sewing in China, but you can not put a price on the pride I feel knowing that we can survive doing things against convention.

Our Heated Food & Pizza Bags Most Popular FAQs, Part IV


The system is simple: A strong, thin plate, acting as a thermal storage device, is secure inside a durable, insulated thermal bag. The element is connected to standard 120V power, and it heats up to 180F in a few minutes. Food is kept warm inside the bag, and when the driver is ready to go, the power cord is disconnected and left behind. The heat stored in the solid element is given up very slowly, allowing food to be delivered hot for up to 45 minutes.

Answers to frequently asked questions about RediHEAT are found below. If your question is not listed please contact us for information at 888-556-2024. 





Safety



Is there any safety issue when the heating element stops working
When the element reaches the end of its life, it will fail in the mode of not heating up.





Will I burn my hand inside the bag?
We recommend that the only thing you put inside the bag is pizza. Human touch is more sensitive to heat felt on a conductor, like aluminum, than to heat felt on an insulator like wood, or the material that the heating element is constructed from. Additionally, there is a layer of nylon over the heating element. Use caution and commonsense.





Product Life, Warranty, Replacement Parts



Does the system have a warranty?
Yes, RediHEAT provides a 24 month warranty on the heating element.

Do I buy the warranty?
No, the warranty is no cost.

Will the heating element plate break if I drop it? 
It is a rugged, durable composite, and will withstand reasonable wear and tear. It had to pass a drop test and an impact test for UL197, which included a 1.15 Lb. steel ball, 2 inches in diameter, dropped onto the plate from 55 inches height.

Are replacement heating elements, bags, and cords available?
Yes, replacement components are available from stock at a cost that is less than an entirely new system.

Ordering and AvailabilityWhere can I buy RediHEAT systems?
Buy them direct from the manufacturer - on the Internet at http://www.rediheat.com/ or by calling toll free 888-556-2024.

My chain of stores buy together as one buying group?
Yes, please call 888-556-2024 for more information, or email RediHEAT at info@rediheat.com.

How can I pay for my order?
Visa or Mastercharge on the e-commerce site. Corporate purchase orders accepted (30 days net, credit approval and minimum order quantity of 100 units); please call 888-556-2024 for more information and application.

RediHEAT NRA Press Release



Contact:
Dave Breen, President
RediHEAT, Inc
216-870-6302



CHICAGO, Illinois, May 18, 2013 – RediHEAT, Inc, manufacturer of durable and the most cost-effective heated food-delivery bags, is now making custom size heated delivery bags, for all types of unique size food containers.

The Cleveland company sells insulated bags with an integrated heating element to keep pizza and other delivered foods hot to the customer's door.  Restaurants that utilize unique-sized containers will now be able to have that food delivered hot.  According to Dave Breen, President of RediHEAT, “Our sewing operation based in Cleveland has the ability to sew almost any bag size imaginable.”

Breen also stated that “RediHEAT’s engineering team will work with you on developing delivery solutions to fit your specific needs. Each bag comes with our quality guarantee. We have both electrical and material experts able to design a product just for you.  No matter what you are delivering, RediHEAT will make sure your food always arrives hot.”

So RediHEAT offers a high-value solution that becomes a better investment with every satisfied diner’s repeat order.

Its heavy-duty insulated bags include a USA-made polymer plate that heats up quickly when plugged in and will keep pizza hot for up to 40 minutes. The plate remains inside the bag during use, but easily slides out so that the bags can be cleaned.  Custom quote requests are available at http://www.rediheat.com/custom_bag.php

Food is kept warm inside the bag, and when the driver is ready to go, the power cord is disconnected and left behind. The heat stored in the solid element is given up very slowly, allowing food to be delivered hot for up to 45 minutes.

Answers to frequently asked questions about RediHEAT are found below. If your question is not listed please contact us for information at 888-556-2024. 


Our Delivery Bags

Are the bags used with this system different?
The bags are high quality pizza delivery bags; made of 1000D nylon and insulated throughout. They have a special compartment to hold the heating element properly.

What are the construction materials used in the bag?
  • 1000 Denier Nylon Outer Material
  • 210 Denier Inner Nylon Material
  • Heavy Duty Polyester Binding
  • Rugged Molded Handle
  • Marine Grade Vinyl Window

Are these bags insulated?
Yes, they use insulation on all sides, including the flap.

Do these bags breath?
Heat stays locked in because of the insulation. But, nylon wicks moisture out, limiting internal condensation. The heat inside also helps minimize moisture build up.

Can I use my own bag or a different bag with RediHEAT plate? 
No, our commitment to performance, warranty, and as a system manufacturer all hinge on using the components we provide. The design is by RediHEAT, with explicit considerations for working in conjunction with our heating element.

Can I get a logo on the bag? 
  • Yes, a minimum order of 10 bags required.
  • Set up is $25 if you supply a vector art file.
  • Silk screening (one color only) is $5.25 per bag.
  • Lead time is 7-10 days once artwork is approved.
  • 5-pie and 10-pie systems only have a 5 bag minimum order because each bag has 2 logos.
  • Design charges are $60 per hour if art needs to be created.
  • Please call 888-556-2024 for exact pricing and details.

Can I wash the bag?
Yes. We recommend hand washing or wiping down with a damp cloth. If you choose to wash the bags in a washing machine, you must first remove the heating element and close the front flap to connect the Velcro hook and loop. The bags can then be tumble dried. It is important to note however, that the bags were not designed for frequent machine washing. Also, any screen printing may be degraded during machine washing.

How many pizzas does each bag hold?
Our bags are designed to hold a minimum of 2 16-inch pizzas or 2 18-inch pizzas quite easily. Internal height is 5.25 inches, so 3 pizzas boxes may be possible, depending on box height. RediHEAT offers two larger size bag in 16" and 18" sizes that will hold up to 5 and 10 pizzas. We can also address your special requirements through custom sewing.

Answers to frequently asked questions about RediHEAT are found below. If your question is not listed please contact us for information at 888-556-2024. 



Heating Element

Is the bag's fabric being heated directly? 
No, the bag is a normal, premium quality pizza bag, and is not electrically conductive. Inside the bag, there is a heating element that connects directly to the power cord and heats up. When it reaches temperature, you can disconnect the power and it remains hot.

Where is the heating element?
Enclosed in a pocket at the bottom of the bag, secured by a Velcro strip fastener.

Is there a temperature control on the heating element?
Yes, the solid state heating element is the control. The element will self-regulate its temperature. More power will be applied upon heat-up, and will be reduced once the bag is at temperature. The system is UL recognized for food heating.

Does the heating element open?
Do not, under any circumstances, try to open up the element. Doing so compromises the safety and performance of the unit. If you have any issues or concerns, return the element directly to RediHEAT for immediate replacement.

How strong is the cord attachment to the heating element?
The strain relief is rated for 35 pounds for UL197.

How long is the power cord?
The cord that extends from the outlet to the external connection on the bag is 6 feet.

Will the cord melt in the hot bag?
No, it is agency safety rated.

Why is the cord from the element attached to a cinch inside the bag?
It has been reported over the years that one of the biggest nuisances of previous corded systems is the pig tail connector hanging outside of the bag. They get stuck in doors, or can be damaged if exposed. This design was meant to keep the cord in place and eliminate these problems.
