Customer Service
Schaeffer Manufacturing Co. DuQuoin is a service orientated company.
Our staff continuously evaluating better ways to serve our customers. Notably, a new production line has been installed and substantial expansions have been made for pallet racking. This has allowed us to fill product more efficiently and expanded the space for warehousing, which has helped cut down on order lead times for customers.
In early, we implemented a new inventory management and purchasing software system. This system helps us serve customers more efficiently with order processing, and also aids continuing efforts to be environmentally friendly by reducing paper waste.

Working in conjunction with industry leading additive manufacturers, Schaeffer Mfg. Co. DuQuoin has developed over 400 custom products for our customers. Many of these products were designed for customer specific applications and are not marketed under our brand names. Here is a summary of products we currently offer.
Dedication to Oil
Schaeffer Manufacturing Co. DuQuoin is dedicated to oil.
We do not blend and package antifreeze, or windshield wash, or brake fluid. Hicks Oils blends and packages oil! This dedication to petroleum and synthetic petroleum-based products is our first line of defense against product contamination.
To further avoid contamination between products, we have dedicated plumbing for incoming and outgoing materials separated by product family. Because of this, there is no possibility of having trace amounts of transmission fluid packaged with a motor oil.
Audited to the ISO 9001 standard, Schaeffer Mfg. Co. DuQuoin has a stringent sampling and testing procedure on all incoming and packaged products. Learn more information about the capabilities of our lab.
