Musings, Advice, and Comments on Industry Topics and Trends Hosted by Matt Handling  

 
Several years ago we introduced several fictional Sales and Application experts. When we decided to begin publising our blog we thought they'd be perfect to present information on wide range of topics.

 

Meet the Team:

Matt Handling - Our Sales Manager and Group leader. He's been a fixture in Southworth's internal and external communications for over 25 years.

 

Tubs Tiltzer - An expert at solving problems related to machine feeding, especially when parts need to be retrieved from wire containers, totes, gaylords and yes, even tubs.

 

Otto LeVeleur - If you're involved with loading and unloading pallets, you should get to know Otto. He'll show ways to eliminate bending, lifting and walking around with heavy loads.

 

Dude Saifer - He's our resident Safety Expert. Not only can he spot potential problems, he can offer solutions too.

 

Flo Matterz - Our Productivity Specialist can identify a potential bottleneck from miles. She'll show you ways to keep things moving to maintain maximum productivity and ultimately profitability. 

 

They'll be posting often, so check back on regular basis, or better yet fill in your name and email address in the box to the right, and we'll alert you of new postings.
