February 2015

2015 is off to a great start as our industry continues to improve. We're seeing more plants running with additional shifts added in many plants around the world.

 

Customers are investing in their employees' education with several in-plant training courses held this year. Our Blockmakers Workshops® kick off in April with the Concrete Masonry Technology and Vibrapac® courses. Our first-ever Servopac class will be held 9-13 March 2015 at Fay Block in Fayetteville, North Carolina, USA.

 

This week we'll be at the ICON-Xchange hosted by the National Concrete Masonry Association (NCMA) and the Interlocking Concrete Pavement Institute (ICPI) in San Antonio, Texas, USA. We look forward to discussing how we can support improving plant operations with those attending.  Earlier this month our team was at the World of Concrete in Las Vegas, Nevada USA with over 55,000 industry professionals attending.  Next week we'll be at the United Kingdom Concrete Show, followed by the Precast Show in Orlando, Florida USA. Visit besser.com for a complete list of trade show where we'll be exhibiting, we love to see our customers in person.

 

We're focused on exceeding your expectations, whether in the upgrades we offer to improve your existing equipment, our innovative new equipment, continued education, genuine Besser parts or our continued support. We look forward to an improving economy in 2015 and wish you nothing but success this year and always.  

 

Sincerely,

Kevin L. Curtis
