certainly help me in the future to make better decisions in our company’s
growth in technology and manufacturing.”
    Steve Gerber, Gerber Wood Products, added “I found the quality of the plant
tours to be excellent. They offered a diverse view into the European philosophy
of manufacturing by utilizing more automation and technology, replacing aging
equipment quickly, and utilizing a wide range of wood composite materi-
als. I saw levels of automation in action that I had often dreamt of but never
believed were being applied in real woodshop applications. I left my week in
Germany inspired and ready to apply aspects of what I learned in my own
business.”
    Overall, quite a bit of ground was covered during the week, and the group
saw a variety of manufacturers – from high-end global suppliers, to local
custom shops. The consistent method for their success was utilizing automa-
tion to meet customers’ needs, production times, to work around an unreliable
workforce, and efficiently produce the quality products customers expected.
    Because of its success, the WCMA is planning a European Plant Tour event
in 2020. If you were unable to participate in 2018, you will surely want to par-
ticipate in 2020! Plans are still being finalized; be sure to check our website,
