I am pleased to announce that this Continuous Improvement newsletter includes stories about two of our 2025 IndustryWeek Best Plants Awards winners: Intertape Polymer Group (IPG) in Tremonton, Utah, and Freudenberg-NOK Sealing Technologies in Santa Ana, Calif. If you are looking for ideas to improve your own operations, there is every chance that you'll find a nugget in one of these articles. Every IW Best Plants winner is doing extraordinary things to make their operations shine.
And while I have your attention, I'm putting out a request for your ideas about what you'd like to see in this newsletter in 2026. Are the continuous improvement efforts of a specific manufacturer of interest? Is there a continuous improvement leader you'd like me to speak with? Let me know.
