Manufacturers to learn importance of innovation to successful operations

Next Generation Manufacturing (NGM), a nonprofit dedicated to the support and growth of manufacturing in Georgia, invites manufacturing executives to a plant tour at Hansgrohe USA on June 18, 2013.  Hansgrohe USA is a manufacturer of high quality faucets, showerhead assemblies and Physical Vapor Deposition, a process for creating special finishes with superior durability.

According to the 2012 Georgia Manufacturing Survey, innovation is an important strategy for successful manufacturing operations today.  Survey results revealed that innovation strategies are associated with the highest mean return on sales at over 10 percent, a fact known by executives at Hansgrohe USA.

Manufacturers attending the program and plant tour at Hansgrohe USA will learn from Russ Wheeler, president of the Company and Stefan Hammann, vice president of operations.  Wheeler and Hammann will discuss the Company’s use of innovation in their manufacturing operations and how innovation has improved their product offerings through the decades and enabled the Company’s success.
