Brief Introduction to Team 1 Plastics, a plastic injection molding company for the automotive industry. Welcome Plastics was ranked number 19 in the Japanese edition Rolling Stone's list of 'The 100 Greatest Japanese Rock Albums of All Time'. Track listing. All lyrics written by Toshi; all music composed by Hajime & Toshi, except where noted.

For years, ' name has adorned the two welcome signs in his hometown, Marshville, N.C., but recently, those signs have been removed and replaced some that don't say 'Home of Randy Travis.' Town Manager Fern Shubert that the old signs with the singer's name were falling apart, and by no means was the disappearance of Travis' name a result of the problems (including arrest and driving while intoxicated) he's recently had.Rather, Shubert says, it was an attempt to make the signs more readable and visually appealing - many townspeople apparently thought the signs were 'too busy.' The two signs certainly had a lot going on; not only did they read 'Marshville: Home of Randy Travis & Country Living,' but they also featured a train, a corn stalk, a guitar and a chicken. The shiny new signs simply say: 'Welcome to Marshville, North Carolina.' A train is in the background of the sign, since Marshville has a history as a railroad town.“It’s nice, it’s dignified and it gets the job done,” Shubert shares. “There was no disrespect to Randy Travis.

It looks more like your traditional welcome sign.”Instead of plastic, the new signs are made of aluminum.Travis, and a few months ago, his friends reported that he was on the road to recovery. While it was unclear if he would ever be able to sing again, Travis and focusing on a comeback, making huge and encouraging strides. He n late July and in August.

Team 1 Plastics, a plastic injection molding company for the transportation industry, believes that “Building an exceptional company is the result of building exceptional teams with exceptional people.” Team 1 has been and continues to be a successful company because of exceptional people – its Team Members. Today continues a series of articles profiling Team 1 Plastics’ Team Members. Each month, you’ll be introduced to one of these exceptional Team Members, including William (Will) Adams. Name: William (Will) Adams Position: Machine Specialist II Date of Hire: 6/6/2011 Other Positions Held / Length of Each: Production Assistant – 1 year; Quality Assistant – 1 year; Die Setter – 2 years Favorite Story / Memory during Time Working at Team 1: Will’s favorite memory occurred about three years ago at a Team 1 Plastics Christmas party. The party was held at a bowling alley, so, of course, bowling was one of the evening’s activities.

Laughing at the memory, Will said that he “threw like five gutter balls in a row.” He admits to not being a good bowler, “but that was unusual.” And, he said that his teammates did a good job of teasing him about the gutter balls. “Charles was on my team, and he had a couple of good rips in there!” How has Team 1 helped your Personal and/or Professional Development? Will said that Team 1 Plastics is currently paying for him to go to school at RMTC (Regional Manufacturing Technology Center) for Machine Electrical training. When he has completed the schooling, he will have earned an Associates in Applied Sciences degree.

“I work four 10-hour shifts, and I have Wednesdays off to go to class. The training helps me in my current position as Electrician for the shop. It helps me on my day-to-day projects.” Team 1 has also sent Will to both Chicago and Cleveland for Maintenance Training on the Sodick and Sumitomo brands of injection molding presses. Favorite Aspect of Working at Team 1: “I like the people here,” Will said. “It’s one of the best working environments that I’ve ever been in.” And, he added that the flexibility that Team 1 gives him in adjusting his work hours “is definitely helping me out in the schooling aspect. They give me the freedom to take days off when I need to, like if I have a doctor’s appointment.

They’ll let me take off a day, and then make it up later in the week.” What do you want to share about your life outside of Team 1? “I like to tinker around.” Will said that he has always been interested in fixing things, even as a boy. “I’ve got a Jeep that’s in the garage right now that I’m building up for Silver Lake. It’ll be kinda like a dune buggy.” Piece of Advice and/or Encouragement for Future Team 1 Team Members: “Whenever Team 1 has training programs coming up, always apply for them.” That’s the piece of advice that Will would give to a future Team Member, and it’s advice that he has followed. “That’s how I got the position that I’m in. I went through the Maintenance training program.” Will said that he had also gone through the Die Setter training program before he held that position. And, he even did the Process Tech training program.

But, the Maintenance Department is where Will feels most comfortable and thinks he will stay, because “I’ve always worked on things. It’s nice that you get a sense of accomplishment when you’ve finished repairing something.” Random Question: What is the Best color of M&M’s? Because,” Will said laughing, “It’s my favorite color!”.

In a ceremony at the plant on Tuesday, November 21, 2017, Team 1 Plastics, a plastic injection molding company for the transportation industry, honored six of its Team Members for achieving milestone anniversaries with the company. In a final celebration event of its 30th Anniversary, Team 1 Plastics, a plastic injection molding company for the transportation industry, buried a time capsule on Tuesday, November 21, 2017. Co-owners Gary Grigowski and Craig Carrel began the brief ceremony by sharing a few words. Then, each took a turn throwing a shovel-full of dirt unto the time capsule. Also participating in the ceremony by taking a turn with the shovels were five long-time Team Members, each hired in the 1990s: Shelley Lewis, Tammy Dowding, Wanda Manthei, Susan (Susie) Muma, and David (Dave) Sanford. Team 1 used a material barrel for the time capsule, which will be opened on November 21, 2047. Items inside the time capsule included a scrapbook containing pictures of Team 1's history, the owners and their families, and current Team Members, predictions of what the Team Members think 2047 will be like, current and past newspaper clippings, current automobile industry magazines, pictures of current day Albion, and a signed banner.

The official date of Team 1 Plastics’ 30th anniversary is December 1, 2017, but the company has been celebrating through the whole year of 2017. Each month, different milestones of the company’s history have been featured on the of the company website and on social media. In April 2017, the Team Members that was held at both the Bohm Theater and the Ludington Center. And, Team 1 has also been sponsoring a, designating 30% of all funds to go to Starr Commonwealth's Resilient Communities and the other 70% of funds to go to Team 1's fund with the Albion Community Foundation. The burying of the time capsule is the final Celebration event. As part of the year-long celebration of its 30th anniversary, Team 1 Plastics, a plastic injection molding company for the transportation industry, is highlighting different milestones in its history through a series of articles. This month’s article features the long-standing partnership of Team 1 Plastics, the, Michigan, and the.

In 1987, Craig Carrel, Gary Grigowski, and Jim Capo had a great idea for a company. Capo had discovered that there was a shortage of quality plastic parts suppliers in the U.S. That could meet the expectations of the Japanese automotive suppliers setting up new manufacturing facilities in the Midwest - and in particular - in Battle Creek, Michigan. The three plastics engineers knew what they wanted to manufacturer and sell. Now, they just needed money and a location for the business. They began to hunt for both.

They decided that the location of the business should be within an hour drive from Battle Creek. They visited several available buildings, but as Carrel said, “When we were looking for vacant buildings, we noticed that most were large (in excess of 20,000 square feet).

We would be paying for a lot of vacant space.” As they began to raise capital, it quickly became evident that banks were not lending money to unproven, start-up companies. Carrel explained, “As we developed our business plan, we started to solicit funds from banks. We quickly realized that banks do not lend money to start-ups with only a business plan and no financial history.

We had begun raising our start-up cash from our own savings and soliciting family and friends, and we had obtained financing for our from their leasing company, but we still needed some working capital.” The solution to both problems presented itself one day when Grigowksi and Capo stumbled on to the Albion Industrial Park. They spotted the Industrial Park sign in their rear view mirror as they were driving out of the city limits. Turning the car around, they soon discovered that the City’s Economic Development Corporation (EDC) had a with space to rent and loan funds available for new business start-ups. Carrel said that the Incubator had “the perfect amount of space for our start-up – 5,000 square feet. This was key since we had only two machines and no work when we started leasing space in September 1987. It wasn’t too big, but had ample space that we could use for expansion in the future. In addition, the Incubator leased us a single office, and we were able to rent the conference room, copier, fax machine, and fork lift when we used them.” And, the Albion EDC had a (RLF).

Carrel said, “Once we submitted our business plan to the EDC, they approved it quickly and the final financial piece of $70,000 for our start-up funding was in place.” The terms of the loan were very favorable to Team 1. Carrel explained, “The payment structure was based upon our cash flow needs and back loaded. It had a very low interest rate (at that time) of 3.0%, and the loan was subordinate to our other loans as we expanded.” Team 1 Plastics sputtered and hobbled along for many months as customer relationships were being formed and cemented. With just $2000 left in the bank, Team 1 Plastics finally made its first profit, and soon afterward, began to experience accelerated growth. As business grew, the space in the Business Incubator began to get crowded as more presses and Team Members were added.

It wasn’t long before the trio realized that it was time for the company to have its own space. The City of Albion and the EDC helped the company once again. Team 1 Plastics purchased a lot in the Albion Industrial Park, down the road from the Incubator, for just $1.00 per acre. Carrel said that the City chose to “sell the land at minimal cost knowing that the taxes assessed on the company’s property and machinery would benefit the City in the long run. After 30 years of paying these taxes,” he said, “it has worked out very well for both parties.” And the City of Albion has also supported Team 1 financially with tax incentives.

“We have received on all of our major expansions and equipment purchases.” The Albion EDC’s revolving loan fund has continued to support Team 1 Plastics throughout its 30-year history, during times of growth and expansions as well as recessions. “It has helped us bridge our financing needs during these times,” said Carrel, “and helped us get additional traditional financing from banks because of the loans’ subordination.” Not only supporting Team 1 financially, the EDC has helped the company with other business issues.

“They have been a great resource to help us with city, state, and federal issues and have helped us navigate them successfully. It has truly been a stellar partnership between Team 1, Albion EDC and the city of Albion,” Carrel said. “They had the Business Incubator and revolving loan fund – which were critical to our start-up success – and have supported all of our requests since. In exchange, Team 1 Plastics has tried to be a ‘,’ employing 70 team members and giving back to make Albion a better place to live and work.”. Team 1 Plastics, a plastic injection molding company for the transportation industry, believes that “Building an exceptional company is the result of building exceptional teams with exceptional people.” Team 1 has been and continues to be a successful company because of exceptional people – its Team Members. Today continues a series of articles profiling Team 1 Plastics’ Team Members.

Each month, you’ll be introduced to one of these exceptional Team Members, including Andrew Zblewski. Name: Andrew Zblewski Position: Maintenance Captain Date of Hire: 11/8/2010 Other Positions Held / Length of Each: Tooling Specialist – 4 years Favorite Story / Memory during Time Working at Team 1: Andy said that his favorite memories at Team 1 have been during plant shutdowns and installation of new machines when the members of the Maintenance Department are working together on the same project.

He explained that most of the time, the Team Members of the Maintenance Department work independently on different tasks and on different shifts. But, during shutdowns and installations, they all work on the same shift, and are all focused on the same project. For example, he said, “Two years ago when we installed our new water tower, that was a two-week shutdown, and we were in a tight timeline.

We just all worked together to get it done. We work well as a team.

I really enjoy that!” He added, “You learn a lot about each other during these times.” How has Team 1 helped your Personal and/or Professional Development? “Personally,” Andy said, “Team 1 has taught me to be more patient with people.” He admitted that he has struggled in the past with patience. He said that in his position as Maintenance Captain, he has learned that “being in charge of a department, you have to be patient with people.

Sometimes I have to lay off people and not be so demanding.” Favorite Aspect of Working at Team 1: Laughing, Andy said that his two favorite aspects of working at Team 1 seem to contradict each other. The first is “that Team 1 keeps us the Team Members informed of pretty much everything that is happening at the company. I really enjoy that. No surprises!” Andy said the second aspect is that the “Work in the Maintenance Department changes minute to minute. Lots of surprises! There is no monotony. We plan out a schedule, but we know that it is very fluid.” Upon closer reflection, Andy agreed that the two really do not contradict each other.

One is about the culture of the company – the other is about the type of work that the Maintenance Department is assigned. What do you want to share about your life outside of Team 1?

Andy is married, and for many years, he and his wife enjoyed the freedom of “grabbing a bag and running to wherever we wanted to go.” Fourteen years after they got married, twins girls were born to the couple, and life changed dramatically. The girls are now eight years old, and Andy and his wife spend “ a lot of time doing things with them like gymnastics, cheerleading, Girl Scouts, all that good stuff.

Those olds days are gone. It’s different, but it’s enjoyable!” He said that the family enjoys traveling together, taking at least two vacations each year with some weekend getaways scattered in occasionally during the year.

After Andy graduated from Marshall High School, he attended two years at Ferris State University. Then, he found a job and an apprenticeship at a Pattern Shop in Albion and has established deep roots in the local community. He is currently involved in several local organizations, including the Knights of Columbus, the Albion Historical Society, the Albion District Library, and Right to Life. Andy also served on the Albion City Council for 12 years. Piece of Advice and/or Encouragement for Future Team 1 Team Members: “Set goals for every day, week, month, year, and don’t get settled.” Andy said that he sees way too many people that are just floating through life. He encourages future Team Members to “Set a small goal and achieve that and then get something bigger. As the year goes on, you’ll realize that you’ve accomplished a lot.

If you went through the year and never had any goals set, then what did you accomplish?” Random Question: Best movie quote? Andy chose this quote from the movie, Joe Dirt: “ Life is a Garden, Dig It.” He admitted that the movie is “kind of slap-stick comedy, but I like that one.”. As part of the year-long celebration of its 30th anniversary, Team 1 Plastics, a plastic injection molding company for the transportation industry, is highlighting different milestones in its history through a series of articles. This month’s article features how the Cold War affected Team 1 Plastics’ purchasing decisions of injection molding presses. In 1987, the three original owners of Team 1 Plastics, Craig Carrel, Gary Grigowski, and Jim Capo, were formulating their plans to open the company. A major decision that needed to be made was what injection molding presses would be purchased. The dependability and quality of those machines had the potential to make or break the company, and dollars were limited.

The three men devoted much time and research in determining what brand and size of presses to obtain. The men decided to purchase two 90-metric ton presses from the Toshiba Machine Company.

According to Craig Carrel, President of Team 1 Plastics, “We researched our first machine purchase and decided on Toshiba because Jim Capo knew that many of our potential Japanese customers used Toshiba machines and would be very comfortable with Team 1 using them. Presses built by Toshiba had excellent reputations of quality, and we would be able to finance the purchase through their leasing company. “We ordered two identical 90-metric ton Toshiba molding machines, thinking that we wanted a direct backup. In case one machine had problems, we could transfer the parts to the other identical machine,” Carrel said. “We knew that our potential Japanese customers would have small parts to transfer, and our plastics experience with Celanese resins, nylons, acetals and polyesters fit this tonnage size.” The decision was made, and the order was placed. Then, came the first wrinkle. Toshiba did not have two 90-metric ton presses in stock – it only had one.

“If we really wanted two 90-ton machines,” Carrel said, “we would have to wait for the second press to arrive from Japan. That would delay our planned start-up date for the company.” Toshiba did, however, have a 120-metric ton press in stock. “We decided that we would purchase the 90- and 120-metric ton machines.

That turned out to be a very fortuitous decision because our very first job from Regal Plastics would only fit in a 120-ton machine. We would not have been able to run it if we had only 90-ton machines.” Soon after Team 1 owners had decided to purchase presses from Toshiba Machine Company, disturbing news reports were published about Toshiba. It had been discovered that, beginning in 1981, Toshiba Machine and Kongsberg Vaapenfabrik had sold sensitive technology to the Soviets in violation of the regulations of the (COCOM).

According to the New York Times article, “Under false pretenses, the companies shipped machinery to the Soviet Union that will enable the Russians to fabricate quieter submarine propellers. Soviet submarines will now become much harder to detect.” “Defense experts said the sale, which went unnoticed for months, has seriously jeopardized the security of American naval forces,” according to the Chicago Tribune article,. “American ships had been able to hear Soviet subs as far as 200 miles away, but now, officials say, the hearing range is about 20 miles. The milling equipment sold to the Soviets enabled them to make quieter submarine propellers. `With this sale, we find ourselves with a nation arrayed against us with submarines which are not only faster.

But as quiet,` Sen. Malcolm Wallop (R., Wyo.) said.” In 1988, the U.S. Government punished Toshiba by banning sales of their products in the United States for three years. Wrinkle number two – just as Team 1 Plastics was getting started and beginning to grow, its chosen supplier of injection molding presses was banned from selling in the United States. Carrel recalled Team 1’s reaction to the news. “When we purchased our two initial presses, nothing had come out yet about Toshiba selling technical equipment to the Russians. When the news finally broke and Congress banned them from selling in the U.S., it was devastating news.

We were starting to grow and were very happy with the Toshiba machines.” He continued, “We had to shift gears quickly. After further research, we decided to purchase Nissei molding machines – for many of the same reasons as we had originally selected Toshiba. As we began working with Nissei, we found them to be comparable to the Toshiba machines, and they met our needs as we expanded.” Over the years, the company has added other brands of injection molding machines. The company wanted at least two different brands in the plant. Because Toshiba wasn’t an option, the company purchased a few Mitsubishi injection molding presses. Then, Carrel said, Sumitomo offered the company “great pricing on a package of machines, and we purchased several machines.” He added that “at one point in our history, we had four different brands – Toshiba, Mitsubishi, Nissei and Sumitomo – in the plant at the same time. We discovered that having so many different machines added complexity, along with more spare part inventory.” More recently, Team 1 Plastics has purchased.

“We discovered Sodick based upon their reputation with lens and light pipes. Their screw/plunger design minimizes black specs and has become a workhorse for our lens and light pipe parts. In addition, we have experienced reduced maintenance costs related, in particular, to screw and barrel replacements,” Carrel said. Going forward, Team 1 Plastics expects its future purchases of injection molding presses to be mostly focused on the Sumitomo and Sodick brands.

But then, thirty years ago, the company had expected to purchase more Toshiba presses – that was, until the Cold War got in the way. Team 1 Plastics, a plastic injection molding company for the transportation industry, believes that “Building an exceptional company is the result of building exceptional teams with exceptional people.” Team 1 has been and continues to be a successful company because of exceptional people – its Team Members. Today continues a series of articles profiling Team 1 Plastics’ Team Members. Each month, you’ll be introduced to one of these exceptional Team Members, including Derrick Goble.

Name: Derrick Goble Position: Process Technician Date of Hire: 9/13/2010 Other Positions Held / Length of Each: Assembly Assistant: 4 months; Production Assistant: 1 year; Die Setter: 4 years; Lead Captain: 1 year Favorite Story / Memory during Time Working at Team 1: Derrick said that his favorite story “ has to be the story that I have with Shelley Lewis.” Then, he explained, “One day, shortly after I first hired in as a Production Assistant, I was talking to Shelley. I asked her how long she’d been at Team 1. She replied, ‘Next month, I’ll have been working here 20 years.’ ‘Man!’ I replied, ‘That’s a crazy long time!

Plastics Welcome Back Rardy 2017

I don’t think I could work at this place for 20 years. That’s forever!’ She replied, ‘You just wait – it’ll creep up on you and the next thing you know, it’ll have been 20 years.’” Derrick said that Shelley often reminds him of their conversation.

“After I had been at Team 1 about three years, Shelley said, ‘Hey, I see you’re still here! You’ve got another year under your belt!’ And just a couple of months ago, she said, ‘It’s been about 7 years now, hasn’t it? You’re going to be a lifer here with me!’” How has Team 1 helped your Personal and/or Professional Development?

Derrick said that at Team 1 Plastics, he has found a position Process Technician which fits wells with his problem-solving skills and interests in math and science. “I’m in a position that works with things that I like to do.” This position has also generated an interest in furthering his education to obtain an engineering degree. And, education is not something that Derrick has enjoyed in the past. “I hated high school.

Plastics Welcome Back Rardy Video

I hated that when studying general education, you’re learning stuff that’s not going to be relevant to you.” However, being a Process Technician has helped him identify that he would like to pursue Engineering, and he has been investigating the different options of schools and degrees. Derrick also said that being at Team 1 has “taught me a lot of patience. Working on stuff has taught me patience. For example, one day, I literally had to sit there and watch the machine run for an hour and seven minutes.” Favorite Aspect of Working at Team 1: “I like all the people.

They are good, friendly people. Everyone knows you, and they are usually trying to help others.” Derrick remembered when Team Members with more experience than his “took time to sit and explain everything to me, being patient with me so that I could learn it. They would tell me things over and over until I got it into my head.” Another “big thing,” Derrick said, is that “the owners care about each individual person.” What do you want to share about your life outside of Team 1? Derrick admitted to being “a huge video game nerd.” He said that he has taken different networking and computer classes and has built computers. He also said that he has just begun playing golf. “That’s been fun for me. It takes a lot of practice.

You definitely have to be committed if you want to get decent.” Piece of Advice and/or Encouragement for Future Team 1 Team Members: “If you have a little bit of patience, there’s always room for advancement. There are always positions open. And, there’s training to help you progress and move up.” Derrick is puzzled when he sees people stuck at an entry-level job for years and years. He wonders, why wouldn’t you want to move up? Derrick thinks that maybe they are fixated on one specific job, but he advises that you be flexible and willing to move around.

“If you do one job, and you do that well, and you move to another and you keep moving up, I feel like you have a better track record and well-rounded knowledge of the place so you know how the whole business works.” Random Question: Which is better: Football or Baseball? “I like football better.” Derrick said that he played football in both middle school and high school. And he said that football is more entertaining to watch than baseball. “There’s a lot more action. It’s more eventful.”. Team 1 Plastics, a plastic injection molding company for the transportation industry, participated in on October 6, 2017, by hosting about 70 students from in Jackson, Michigan.

During the afternoon event, the students toured the company’s plant and had opportunities to ask lots of questions. “Many of the students had never seen a manufacturing facility in real life. Our goal was to let them experience first-hand some of our cool processes and equipment,” said Robert Clothier, Team 1's Human Resources Manager. This was the first time that Team 1 Plastics had participated in Manufacturing Day, an annual event that began in 2012 and occurs on the first Friday of October.

According to its, Manufacturing Day “is a coordinated occasion during which U.S. Manufacturers open their doors to demonstrate the potential of modern manufacturing and foster interest in manufacturing careers.” “We wanted to showcase some of the opportunities that are available to students in the manufacturing industry,” said Clothier. “Companies like Team 1 can offer high-paying jobs and opportunities for development through on-the-job learning and outside education at no cost to the students.” Manufacturing Day does impact students’ interest in manufacturing jobs, according to its. A survey taken after Manufacturing Day 2016 showed that 89 percent of participating students were more aware of manufacturing jobs in their communities. And 84 percent of students were more convinced that manufacturing provides careers that are both interesting and rewarding. For Team 1 Plastics, “The day was a huge success, and we immediately decided that we’d continue to hold Manufacturing Day events in the future,” Clothier said.

“We were very impressed by the interest of the students and the great questions that they asked.”. Craig Carrel, Co-owner and President of Team 1 Plastics, a plastic injection molding company for the transportation industry, was recently honored by the Marshall Public Schools (MPS) for his support of the school district. At the school’s annual Welcome Back Community Breakfast held on August 30, 2017, Carrel was announced as the recipient of the Golden Apple Award, which, according to Dr. Randy Davis, Superintendent of MPS, is given “on an annual basis, to recognize a community member or members who have been especially supportive of our schools.” In announcing the award, Davis shared these remarks, “Craig and Team 1 Plastics was an initial sponsor of our robotics program.

He is an inaugural member of the Skilled Trades and Engineering Partnership, supporting our efforts in Career and Technical Education. He has influenced the District’s approach in helping our graduates become Career-Ready and has invested his resources of time, talent, and treasures in this regard.” Davis continued, “Team 1 Plastics has just celebrated its. And in the video they launched to commemorate this great accomplishment, Team 1 showcased the Marshall Public Schools’ Red Hot Chili Bots robotics program and the STEP program as prime examples of how they value their connection to the communities in which they belong.” Being a Positive Community Members is part of the culture of Team 1 Plastics as evidenced in its. “We believe that Team 1 has an obligation to be a strong positive influence on our team members’ families and their communities. We strongly value the importance of continuous learning of our team members and their families with special emphasis on the children of our communities.” In his response to receiving the Golden Apple Award, Carrel said, “It is an honor to be recognized by the Marshall Public Schools with such a prestigious award.

I accept the award on behalf of Team 1 Plastics whose focus has always been on developing the children of our communities. We are happy to be an active partner with Marshall Public Schools in their STEP and robotics programs and look forward to future successes in these critical areas.” Because Carrel was not available to attend the Welcome Back Community Breakfast, he was presented with the award at the School Board’s meeting on September 11, 2017.
