Company details
Where Siligrams products are made
“Made in America by a small business in Concord, Massachusetts” — carried on the custom lettering trays and repeated across the state-shape, hobby, sports, holiday and summer designs. Naming the town rather than the country is a specific, checkable assertion, and it matches the address in the company’s own privacy policy.
“Made in the USA with 100% food grade silicone” on the ready-to-ship standard tray, and “Top Dog Treat Molds Made in the USA with 100% food grade silicone” on the pet line. Two distinct product families, same claim, same material statement.
Rocks glasses, bitters, cocktail smokers and dog-biscuit mix carry no origin line, and the company does not extend the claim to them. The separation between manufactured and sourced goods is visible in its own listings.
The Federal Trade Commission reserves an unqualified Made in USA claim for goods that are all or virtually all of domestic origin. Siligrams makes that claim for the silicone trays and molds it produces in Concord and does not extend it to the barware and mixes it resells alongside them. This page follows that line exactly, which is why the label is American Manufacturing with the scope stated.
The story
Siligrams is a small manufacturer in Concord, Massachusetts making something narrow and specific: silicone trays that freeze ice into letters, words, state outlines and shapes, and molds that do the same for pet treats and soap.
The business is built on personalisation, which is a form of production that only works close to the customer. A tray spelling out a particular name or a particular date cannot be forecast, containerised and shipped; it has to be made after the order arrives, which is why the company also sells a “skip the production line” fee for customers in a hurry.
The company does not publish a founding year, so this profile prints none. What it does publish — a street address in Concord and a manufacturing claim naming that same town inside the product copy — is the more useful pair of facts.
Why they matter
Housewares of this kind are the default import category. A silicone tray is light, cheap to mold and trivially shipped, and almost everything in this aisle is made overseas. A domestic maker here is competing against the lowest-cost version of exactly the same object.
What makes it possible is customisation. Short, personalised runs are the one thing a domestic small manufacturer can do better than an ocean freight schedule, and the company has built its whole catalogue around that advantage rather than fighting on price.
It is also a clean example of a company being precise rather than expansive. Plenty of businesses that make one thing domestically let the claim drift across everything they sell. This one does not, and that restraint is exactly what makes its actual claim worth trusting.

Siligrams questions
Are Siligrams trays made in the USA?
Yes. The product copy reads “Made in America by a small business in Concord, Massachusetts” on the custom trays, and “Made in the USA with 100% food grade silicone” on the ready-to-ship line.
Where is Siligrams based?
Concord, Massachusetts — 23 Bradford St. The same town appears in the product descriptions as the place the trays are made.
Does the claim cover everything they sell?
No. The silicone trays and molds are made in Concord. The glassware, bitters, cocktail smokers and biscuit mixes sold alongside them are sourced goods and carry no origin claim, and this profile does not extend one to them.
When was Siligrams founded?
The company publishes no founding year on its own site, so this profile records none.
