Matric Group

Here’s a delightful success story in manufacturing: Did you know that Milton Hershey faced three failed attempts at starting a business before successfully founding the Lancaster Caramel Company in 1883? This venture eventually led to the creation of the Hershey Chocolate Company. Today, iconic products such as the milk chocolate bar, Krackel, and Mr. Goodbar are still produced, but it’s the Hershey's Kiss and the innovative machine wrapping that truly capture our attention this time of year. A staggering 70 million candies are manufactured every day—now that’s a sweet achievement in manufacturing!

In the competitive manufacturing industry, it’s inspiring to see companies giving back to their communities! Recently, Matric Group participated in @Progress Rail annual "Christmas for Kids" event, which has been supporting disadvantaged children for 30 years. Through their golf tournament, they raise funds to help hundreds of families in Alabama provide gifts for their kids during the holiday season. It’s a wonderful way to spread joy and make a difference! This event is a perfect example of how manufacturing companies can leverage partnerships with customers and suppliers to generate support for worthy causes. 🎄❤️ #Community #GivingBack #ChristmasForKids

Manufacturing goes beyond merely creating products; it’s about shaping the future. Introducing youth to the manufacturing industry is a vital investment in our company’s long-term success. By hosting open houses and inviting school students for tours, we can share our story and showcase our contributions to the community and beyond. Companies like ours are actively fostering a pipeline of talented and passionate students by equipping them with knowledge, essential skills, and internship opportunities that can open doors to careers after graduation. A heartfelt thank you to the 6th graders from Keystone Elementary School for visiting our facility yesterday! We had a wonderful time and truly enjoyed meeting each of you. Wishing you all the best for the remainder of your school year!

Have you ever wondered when the term aerospace was first coined? In the 1950s, as the world began exploring the integration of atmospheric and space flights, "aerospace" emerged to describe this new frontier. Today, aerospace certifications like the AS9100 ensure that companies meet the high standards necessary for this critical industry. At Matric, we proudly hold the AS9100 Certification, underscoring our commitment to quality in the aerospace industry.https://hubs.ly/Q02TfKyB0 #mamufacturingmonth #engineeringcommunity #aerospaceprofessionals

🔌 Celebrate Manufacturing Month with Us! 🌟 At Matric Group, we understand the importance of protecting your products from environmental elements like static electricity. Less than 1000 volts can damage a PC board and its components. That’s why electronic contract manufacturers invest so heavily in ESD flooring and mats, educate their teams, and provide them with smocks and straps. Did you know that walking across a carpet in socks can create a staggering amount of static electricity? Here's a quick trivia question for our fellow electronics enthusiasts: How many volts of static electricity can be generated by walking across a carpet in socks? A. 15,000 volts B. 25,000 volts C. 30,000 volts D. 35,000 volts Share your answer in the comments below! ⬇️Join the conversation, and let's keep advancing the world of manufacturing together! #ManufacturingMonth #ElectronicsExcellence

To remain competitive in our fast-evolving tech landscape, we actively demonstrate our capabilities at contract manufacturing trade shows. Interestingly, the first international trade show was held in London in 1851. This week, we spent three days at the 2024 Battery Show in Detroit, MI, engaging with potential customers about our manufacturing services while also networking with fellow companies.

In the past, manufacturing was synonymous with the idea of "one size fits all." However, as industries evolve and consumer demands become more specific, the realm of manufacturing has transformed remarkably. Today, it's not just about producing identical items on a large scale; it's about tailoring solutions to meet precise requirements. Size and shape are two areas that have completely changed due to customization. The manufacturing of circuit boards has evolved beyond rigid rectangles; they now come in various shapes and are flexible! Moreover, the components have become so small that they are even smaller than a grain of pepper! #MFGMonth #electronicsmanufacturing

We're committed to educating our community and the next generation of manufacturers by sharing our story about what we do, how we do it, and why it matters. One great way we do this is by attending fantastic events like the Annual @Manufacturer&BusinessAssociation MFG Day in Erie! It's an amazing opportunity to showcase our capabilities and introduce students to the exciting world of electronics contract manufacturing! #ElectronicsManufacturing #Community #MFGDay2024

To continue celebrating Manufacturing Month here is one for you. We owe a debt of gratitude to Ransom Olds and Henry Ford for pioneering the assembly line, a true game-changer in electronics manufacturing. This innovative approach revolutionizes complex processes, turning them into efficient and streamlined production methods. At the core of innovation, the assembly line enhances productivity while maintaining precision and consistency. #ElectronicsManufacturing #AssemblyLine #MatricGroup #MFGMonth
