If you’re looking for Cortney on the production floor, good luck pinning her down. As a Material Handler, she spends her days wherever production needs her, whether that’s setting up workstations or running the forklift to put away felt and resin.

That forklift is actually a point of pride. She was nervous to drive it when she first learned, and today it’s second nature. It fits a career path that’s never stood still: production first, then shipping and numbering within her first year, then several years in logistics before her current role.

Cortney describes Designetics as a company that gives back to its community and takes genuine care of its employees. Her pitch to anyone considering a job here is simple: everyone is like family. And the cartoons that mysteriously appear in company presentations never fail to crack her up.

Summer is her season outside of work. You’ll find her outdoors with her family, probably at a cookout. We’re lucky to have you, Cortney!

Delivery Excellence. Those two words mean a lot to us.

Have you heard? Max Eboch is our new Head of Operations & Engineering!

If you've spent any time on our floor, you know how much moves between production, engineering, quality, molding and automation on a given day. Max will be the one keeping all of it connected and pointed in the same direction. Call it stronger together in action.

If you know Max, you know he's going to ask why. He'll analyze something until he understands how it really works, and he asks the questions the rest of us should be asking. That's how relentless improvement actually happens, and it's a big part of why this team looks up to him.

Congratulations, Max!

Meet Barb Betts 👋

Barb is a Production Associate here at Designetics, and she helps keep things moving. On the busiest days, she stays motivated with a little friendly competition. Seeing who can get the job done fastest keeps the work moving and the energy up.

Since joining the team, she's cross-trained across several of our production processes, including thermosealing, wand sealing and soft felt. That range makes her a real asset on the floor, and it's an accomplishment she's proud of.

Her approach to the people around her is simple: treat others the way you want to be treated and help out whenever you can. It's also a big part of why she loves working here. In her words, Designetics is a wonderful place to work with leaders who truly care about their people.

Thanks for everything you bring to the team, Barb.

Three playhouses, 15 kids and one very good Thursday. We were proud to take part in the Arrowhead Mini-Blitz with Maumee Valley Habitat for Humanity's Playhouse Project. Every playhouse helps build the dream of homeownership for a local family, and we're glad to have played a part.

Happy Fourth of July from all of us at Designetics! We hope your day is full of good food and great company.

Meet Kayley Kimball, our Logistics Team Lead here at Designetics!

On any given day, you'll find her right in the mix, coordinating shipping and receiving, working with carrier reps and customs brokers and making sure orders reach customers without a hitch. She tackles transit delays, tracks down missing shipments and supports import and export needs to keep things running smoothly behind the scenes.

One accomplishment she's especially proud of is earning her Certified Export Specialist (CES) certification. The work she put into studying gave her a much deeper understanding of international trade and compliance, knowledge she puts to use every day when helping customers work through complex shipping challenges.

Ask her what she loves most about Designetics, and she'll tell you it's the people and the culture. A team-first environment where leadership genuinely invests in your growth makes it easy to show up and do your best work.

Outside the office, she enjoys spending time with her fiancé, Blake, and their cats, Loki and Boots. She's always in the middle of an audiobook, keeps a rotating list of creative hobbies and loves supporting the local arts scene at art fairs and live music shows.

We're so glad to have you on the team, Kayley. Thanks for everything you bring to Designetics!
