Monroeville's CSE Corp. rebounds after turning back to domestic suppliers
What looked like a bonanza in 2007 turned into a nightmare three years later for CSE Corp., a Monroeville company that makes breathing and gas detection equipment used in coal mines.
President and co-owner Scott Shearer said the experience with faulty cylinders from an overseas supplier that caused the company to halt production did have a silver lining: Instead of buying many components for its air pack business overseas, CSE has brought the work back home and now relies on about three dozen suppliers within a three-hour radius of the Monroeville plant.
"I'll never go back. I won't," he said when asked about using overseas suppliers.
