2023 Stewardship Report

For nearly 80 years, our company has thrived on the foundational pillars of people, innovation, and creativity—working tirelessly to make facilities 'cleaner, safer, and more productive.' This mission is at the heart of our existence. Collaborating with our dedicated employees, we are committed to 'Transform Opportunity into Action,' shaping a future for the next generation. This initiative is deeply connected to our 'Why Statement': 'Ignite Excellence so that Families Thrive and Communities Flourish.

Through our innovative products and streamlined manufacturing processes, we've cultivated strong partnerships with our customers, aiding them in reducing spillage, noise, and pollution in their facilities. Complementing our product offerings, we provide diverse training programs. The FOUNDATIONS™ Learning Center is a hub for bulk material handling articles, and our resources include downloadable E-books, on-demand/live webinars, and the comprehensive FOUNDATIONS™ book series, all geared towards promoting efficient bulk material handling.

Supporting the communities where we operate has been ingrained in the DNA of our family business from the very beginning. Our organizational culture strengthens community partnerships across our 20 locations through outreach and a commitment to sustainability. As a preferred employer, we are dedicated to enhancing employee well-being through competitive compensation, a safe work environment, outstanding benefits, and ample development opportunities. We extend a helping hand to those in need, whether it's assisting an employee in an emergency, supporting neighboring communities affected by earthquakes or other disasters, or contributing to children's and senior homes. Through Martin's support, we collaborate closely with our employees who generously volunteer countless hours to assist our community partners.

Our ongoing success relies on our dedicated employees and the strategic use of our knowledge and products to collaborate with customers, enhancing their processes while continually improving our own. As we approach 2024, we are poised to build upon our achievements and further integrate the principles of Stewardship for the benefit of both our customers and employees.
