Maize, KS -- (ReleaseWire) -- 02/24/2015 -- Carlson Products has invited a Youth Entrepreneur class from East High School to tour their manufacturing and certified field laboratory and testing facilities on Tuesday, March 3 at 10:30 a.m.

According to sba.gov, the U.S. Census Bureau reports that self-employment among younger age groups has been declining. From 2002 to 2012, self-employment among individuals ages 25 years and younger decreased by 23 percent.

"America needs more entrepreneurs who take risks to make great products or deliver outstanding services," said Austin Peterson, president of Carlson Products. "We're pleased to expose young minds to manufacturing. We hope the experience will encourage students to consider jobs in manufacturing and perhaps even to start their own company someday."

Carlson has three major product lines which include Carlson Pro Pets, Carlson Doors and Carlson Pans. Since 1956, Carlson Products has been a major supplier of formed and fabricated component parts, as well as finished aluminum products for industry leaders in the commercial bakeware, industrial and doors categories.

"Carlson makes products that these students can relate to," said Peterson. "The next time they enjoy a hot pizza, they'll know it was probably baked on one of our pans. It really brings manufacturing home."

The new website offers online ordering for a variety of insulated door mount, wall mount and guillotine products that fit pet and application. Carlson pet doors are commercial grade, have replaceable gaskets, are non-chewable and nearly indestructible. All doors come with a training tool.

"Carlson's insulated pet doors are one of the best investments I have ever made," said Sharon Shultz, owner/CKO of Pampered Paws Pet Grooming & Boarding. "My electric bill was $500 one July. After installing 24 Carlson doors, my electric bill dropped to $280 for the same period the next year."

"Carlson's insulated pet doors were the answer to our problems, as well as those of our boarding clients. We will pay for our doors on what we save on heating and air-conditioning."
