CordSafe: The American-Made Weatherproof Cord Cover Built by Rogers Manufacturing

Part of the America250: Built Here. Built Better. series — celebrating the American makers, manufacturers, and entrepreneurs behind every FLI Products innovation.

Every homeowner, event planner, and outdoor enthusiast has experienced it: you run an extension cord outside, connect your string lights or pool pump or holiday display — and then it rains. Or the connection works loose. Or moisture creeps in and trips the GFCI. Or worse.

Outdoor electrical connections are one of the most overlooked safety hazards in American homes. And the solution — a weatherproof cover that protects the connection point — has been made right here in the United States for years.

That solution is CordSafe.

Built by Rogers Manufacturing — 135 Years of American Craftsmanship

CordSafe is manufactured by The Rogers Manufacturing Company, located at 72 Main Street, Rockfall, Connecticut 06481. Founded in 1891, Rogers Manufacturing has been producing quality American-made products for 135 years — a manufacturing legacy that predates most of the brands you know by name.

Rogers is a family-owned plastic injection molding facility specializing in thermoplastics, producing more than 3,000,000 units per year across 7,000+ orders annually. Their capabilities span rapid prototyping, custom molding, engineering, mold refurbishing, and mold maintenance — the full spectrum of precision American manufacturing.

Rogers Manufacturing is also the maker behind Blade Guard and CrateMate — three FLI Products brands, one trusted American manufacturing partner, 135 years of expertise behind every unit.

Made in the USA — Since 1891

CordSafe is manufactured in Rockfall, Connecticut by The Rogers Manufacturing Company — a family-owned plastic injection molding facility that has been producing quality American-made products since 1891. That's 135 years of manufacturing expertise, 3,000,000+ units produced per year, and a commitment to American jobs and American craftsmanship that predates most of the brands you know by name.

As America celebrates its 250th anniversary, CordSafe is proud to be part of a manufacturing legacy that has called New England home for over a century. When you buy CordSafe, you're not just buying an extension cord cover — you're buying into 135 years of American industrial tradition.

Designed and manufactured in the USA. Built to last.

What CordSafe Does — and Why It Matters

CordSafe PLUS is a weatherproof outdoor extension cord cover that protects the connection point between two cords or between a cord and a device. It seals out rain, moisture, and debris — keeping outdoor electrical connections safe, dry, and reliable in any weather.

The applications are everywhere:

• String lights — patio, pergola, wedding, event, and holiday lighting
• Pool pumps — protecting connections from splash and rain exposure
• Holiday displays — Christmas lights, inflatables, and outdoor decorations
• Farm and ranch — heated water bowls, bird baths, and outdoor equipment
• Contractors and job sites — protecting connections during outdoor work
• RV and camping — shore power and outdoor appliance connections

Available in Black, Green, White, Orange, and Red — in 2-pack, 10-pack, 20-pack, and 100-pack quantities — CordSafe is sized for every application from a single patio light string to a full commercial event installation.

Tom Whitaker has used CordSafe on his farm for years — protecting connections on heated water bowls, outdoor lighting, and seasonal equipment. His assessment is straightforward:

"Outdoor electrical connections fail at the worst possible time — in the middle of a storm, on Christmas Eve, when the pool pump trips at midnight. CordSafe is the simplest fix I know. Snap it on, forget about it. And knowing it's made right here in America by people who've been doing this for 135 years — that matters to me." — Tom Whitaker, FLI Products Advisor

The Real Cost of Outdoor Electrical Failures

Outdoor extension cord connection failures aren't just inconvenient — they're a genuine safety hazard. The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) reports that electrical failures are among the leading causes of home fires, and outdoor connections exposed to moisture are a significant contributor.

Import cord covers — when they exist at all — often use lower-grade plastics that crack in cold weather, warp in heat, and fail to maintain a weatherproof seal after a season of use. CordSafe's American-made construction means:

• UV-stabilized materials that don't degrade in sunlight
• Temperature-resistant construction that holds up from winter holiday displays to summer pool season
• Consistent seal geometry — Rogers Manufacturing's precision molding means every unit seals correctly, every time
• Multi-season durability — buy once, use for years

Why Retail Buyers Choose CordSafe

For retail buyers in the electrical safety, outdoor living, and seasonal categories, CordSafe delivers the domestic supply chain advantages that import alternatives can't match:

• 7–30 day domestic replenishment vs. 90–140 day overseas lead times — critical for seasonal categories
• No tariff exposure — stable pricing for holiday and seasonal buys
• Consistent quality — Rogers Manufacturing's precision molding means every unit meets spec
• Multiple SKUs — 5 colors × 4 pack sizes = 20 SKU options for planogram flexibility
• Year-round utility — not just a holiday product; pool season, patio season, farm use, and contractor use drive 12-month turns

FLI Products and the Walmart Open Call

CordSafe is part of FLI Products' commitment to the Walmart Open Call program — Walmart's annual event connecting American-made products with Walmart buyers for potential shelf placement. CordSafe is already available at Walmart, and its year-round utility — from holiday lighting to pool season to farm use — makes it a strong candidate for expanded placement across multiple Walmart categories.
