The state of the art Innovation Center is home to our team of Expert Frame Engineers and our Test Laboratory. The lab is equipped to run the full spectrum of static and cyclical tests to BIFMA X5.4 Public & Lounge Seating standard. *Product Development* Work alongside our team of engineers to bring a concept piece to life. Our engineers can provide insight in the design phase that can then be analyzed in the lab. *Hospitality/Contract Furniture* Our test lab is open to current customers as well as servicing testing needs of contract/hospitality providers who require their furniture to be tested to the BIFMA standard. *Frame Analysis* Our hybrid frame variations provide customers with multiple options of internal frame infrastructure that aim to bolster key metrics such as assembly speed, total piece count, and overall frame cost without changing the outer dimensions. When a new design is presented, the test results confirm the design will stand the test of time before releasing it to production. #Innovation #Sustainability #Optimization #Design #Engineer #BIFMA #Manufacturer #FurnitureDesign #FurnitureMaker #USA #MadeInTheUSA #AmericanMade #Results #CostReduction #WorkingCapital #ValueStream #LeanManufacturing #LeanSixSigma #TheSmartPlay

🌪 What would a natural disaster do to your operations?🌪 NOAA predicts a very high likelihood (85% chance) of an above-normal Atlantic hurricane season in 2024. Many companies have consolidated their footprint in an effort to right-size their business in the current economic climate, but what does this mean for their production capabilities if a facility is affected for a week? A month? Loss of inventory, inability to manufacture, months of insurance claims and rebuilding... In order to decrease exposure to risks like these, many companies have a designated back-up supplier who can be tagged in during a recovery period after a natural disaster strikes. With 7 strategically located facilities and over 100 pieces of the latest technology across the Southeast and Mexico, Industrial Timber is well equipped to handle any production needs and uniquely positioned for disaster recovery, ensuring your operation never skips a beat. Start the conversation today to learn how we can help you feel protected from natural disasters and assist in your production needs while you focus on recovery efforts. https://lnkd.in/eahWuGT4 #NaturalDisaster #HurricaneSeason #HurricaneSZN #Preparedness #Rebuild #Recovery #Protect #Insurance #Manufacturing #Innovation #Flood #Storm #Damage #SevereStorm #BackUpSupplier #Readiness #HighWinds #Tornado #Weather #SupplyChain #Logistics #Help #Solution #FurnitureMaker #HomeFurnishings #NaturalDisasterRecovery #TeamWork #BadLuck #WarningSigns #GlobalWarming #DisasterRecovery #Prediction #RiskAssessment #RiskManagement #SpeedyRecovery #WeCanHelp #Motivation #Economy #Economics #Growth #GrowthGoals #Protected #TheSmartPlay https://lnkd.in/gsayAna9
