Check out your Company Bowl for anonymous work chats.
The team at Grede headquarters had an excellent holiday luncheon last week in Southfield, MI. 🎄 Each year during the holiday luncheon, the corporate team takes a quiz to predict how significant events will play out next year, such as who will win the Super Bowl and what Grede's biggest opportunity will be in 2024. They revisited last year's quiz to see who got their predictions right for 2023 and made predictions for next year. 🔮 It was a great way to wrap up the year before the holidays. #2024predictions #HappyHolidays
Grede shares the spirit! 🎁 🎄 Our St. Cloud, MN, team adopted a family in need through their local Catholic Charities' "Share the Spirit" program. The team raised money and bought gifts for a 4-year-old girl, an 11-year-old boy, and their parents. #GredeCares #HappyHolidays #CorporateCitizenship
We strive to lead the industry in energy savings. 💡 💪 This year alone, through optimizing the metal holding and transfer processes, Grede eliminated three energy-intensive furnaces to reduce energy by roughly 15%! To put this into perspective, these energy savings equate to powering 1,300 homes for an entire year, totaling 14 million kilowatt hours annually! 🏡 Our journey with ENERGY STAR enables us to challenge ourselves to become better stewards of our resources and set new standards for sustainability. 🌱 #CastingABrighterFuture #MobilityIndustry #MetalcastingIndustry #GoFurtherWithGrede
Our Iron Mountain, MI, plant had a great time sponsoring and participating in the City of Kingsford Holiday Tree Lighting Event last week. We used our foundry-in-a-box kit to make ornaments for the kids to decorate. We enjoyed spreading awareness of how Grede impacts our local community while also spreading holiday cheer. 🎅🎄 #GoFurtherWithGrede #CastingIntegrity #FoundryInABox #HappyHolidays
We're always looking for ways to save energy in our foundries to achieve a clean energy future. Thank you to ENERGY STAR for helping us track, measure, and reduce the energy intensity of our furnaces and other equipment. 🎄 #CastingABrighterFuture #CleanEnergyFuture #ESG #Sustainability
By partnering with Focus on Energy, we significantly reduced our energy intensity at our Browntown, WI foundry by shutting down one of two furnaces while still meeting our production goals. 💡 By reducing our energy intensity, we're saving enough electricity to power 345 homes yearly! 🏡 At Grede, we're committed to reducing our carbon footprint to cast a brighter future. #CastingABrighterFuture #CleanEnergyFuture #ESG #Manufacturing #MobilityIndustry
