I dunno if Donaldson outsources any of their work but they are American owned. M1 is made by American owned champion labs. All M1 filters I've had are made in the USA. Also as was pointed out to me, Baldwin, Hastings and Parker are American owned.
Motorcraft is Ford's Brand but their filters are made by Purolator which is not American owned anymore.
I'm sure most of Baldwin/Hastings filters and Donaldson filters sold here are made here.
Champion labs makes filters for many companies including Royal purple, M1, maybe k&N again. They are now making Walmarts supertech filters I believe.
Anyway someone will surely come along and correct me on something if I'm wrong about anything. Also Im sure someone has more info. on the matter than I do and can share it.
