Good morning! It's quite an achievement for a business to last 50 years. The family-owned Agri-Industrial Plastics of Fairfield, Iowa, is approaching that milestone, taking pride not only in its strategic equipment investments and the blow molded products it turns out, but also in its service to its employees, its community and the environment. See why the SPE Blow Molding Division honored the company with this year's Recognition of Excellence.

We also have a new curing oven from Vastex and a new regional sales manager for Absolute Group. If you enjoyed our recent series on maintenance, check out the offering below from our colleagues at Plant Services.
