Who We Are
Designers, Manufacturers and Acquirers of Market-Leading Brands
The Golden Rule
Simple. Powerful. Authentic.
Maybe it comes from our humble Midwest beginnings, but we believe in treating our employees, customers, suppliers, and shareholders as we would like to be treated. And we encourage our employees to live this philosophy at all times.
John P. McConnell, Retired, Executive Chairman and CEO
I look at Our Philosophy and realize that core values don't change. And I realize that these are great principles for life, not just for business.
WE WILL LEAD

Employees
Our employees are our greatest asset. That's why we create avenues for growth, opportunity and fair compensation. Whenever possible, we tie compensation to job performance through incentives, profit sharing or otherwise. We believe in the mutual benefits of long-term employment and promote from within often.
Suppliers
Our suppliers are a critical component of our value chain. It's why we ask them to be highly competitive with regard to quality, pricing, delivery and volume purchased. We are loyal to suppliers that meet our quality and service requirements through all market conditions.
Customers
Our customers' need for our products and services is the reason for our existence. We exert every effort to consistently exceed their expectations. When we make a commitment to a customer, we take seriously the responsibility to fulfill that obligation.
Sustainability and Corporate Citizenship
Choices Today. Impacts Tomorrow.
We are making strategic choices to reduce our environmental footprint, innovate sustainable offerings, improve processes with technology, and expand and deepen our commitments in our communities.
