Thats a ~~US'~~ British companies brand identity, might say something about US-ans that they make a profit this way but might also not say anything about people from the usa.

Edit: Numatic the name of said company and it is from England. Interesting fact as a bonus:

The company was founded on 9 September 1963, and as of 2024 is owned solely by Chairman and Founder Chris Duncan, who created the compact shape for the cleaner. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numatic_International
