As Bob’s Machine Shop evolved into one of the country’s premier manufacturers of jack plates for boats, their finishing equipment needed an upgrade. A new Performer ES Paint Booth from GFS with long-lasting GFS Wave exhaust filters has Steven Pelini confident in his company’s future, thanks to increased production, shorter lead times and improved efficiency.
Eric Zimmermann has experienced the damaging effects a production bottleneck can have on a business. When Valme North America was looking for finishing equipment for their new Wisconsin facility, he turned to GFS because he needed a paint booth manufacturer with local support that he could trust.
When Amerequip needed new finishing equipment, the decision to invest in a Batch Burn-Off Oven from GFS was an easy one, as Nick Vollrath knew the payback period would be short and trusted the equipment manufactured in his backyard.
As we look forward to what 2021 has in store, we pause to look back on 2020. While this year was marked by uncertainty and change, we enjoyed sharing customer stories, assisting you in keeping your shop and employees safe, and highlighting the process of achieving high-quality paint finishes.
Next month, GFS will be hosting a virtual Industrial Finishing Summit, a chance for industrial businesses to learn from industry experts about ways to improve their finishing operation, from the comfort of their own homes.
Codes and standards outlining proper paint storage guidelines minimize risks and protect your workers, equipment and facility. Understanding those codes and standards is key when storing, dispensing or mixing paint and selecting the right type of enclosure for your needs.
