Saint-Gobain CEO: Closing Manufacturing Perception Gap

"With 3.8 million manufacturing jobs to fill over the next 10 years, closing this perception gap is critical. It means manufacturers must take charge in showing the next generation that modern manufacturing is clean, high tech and full of career paths that don't require a four-year degree."

When Beacon Adhesives started in Manhattan, New York back in 1926, the manufacturing landscape looked completely different, but our goals were the same then as they are now. Beacon began with a straightforward commitment to American manufacturing. Four generations later, we are still family-owned and operating from those same New York roots, but now we support some of the most unexpectedly diverse industries in the country. The very same facility that produces high-performance bonding materials engineered to support aerospace and electric motor assembly also develops the niche, high-end consumer adhesives used to secure elaborate costumes for the MET Opera or iconic holiday window displays in New York City. Reaching a 100-year milestone as an independent business comes down to one thing: a job well done. We’ve spent the last hundred years ensuring that whenever you use a Beacon product, you'll see exactly that.
