What are these guys so excited about?

Congratulations!

We were proud to welcome Cory Baird from Worldwide Flight Services and Jeff Stone from Atlas Toyota Material Handling to our facility for a firsthand look at two of the newest additions to their fleet – Integrated Electric Pneumatic Forklifts.

When asked about their recent order, Cory shared,

“The standard 15,500-pound pneumatic fossil-fuel forklift has been the backbone of the WFS North American cargo network for decades. Until now, viable electric replacements capable of meeting the durability and performance requirements of our operations have been limited.

The 9FBZ truck changes that paradigm—delivering a fully electric solution within the rugged, outdoor-ready platform our teams depend on. This unit checks all the critical boxes, including extended runtime, rapid charging capability, excellent operator sightlines, enhanced ergonomics for smoother operation, and integrated pedestrian safety features. WFS is proud to begin introducing these units into our cargo warehousing fleet as part of our broader sustainability strategy, reinforcing our commitment to operational excellence while reducing environmental impact."

Huge thanks to Bret Bruin, Chris Craig, Mark Albers, BeckTrajkovic, and Dustin Fullerton for coordinating this visit and to Worldwide Flight Services for the continued partnership!

We can’t wait to see your operation thrive with the new electric solutions.

Kevin Trick stand out the moment you meet him!

When you talk to him you realize how important in-house welding is to the way CIT operates.

When your welding team is under the same roof as engineering, fabrication, and production, things move faster.

Problems get solved quicker.

Quality gets protected.

Communication improves.

That matters when you’re building complex industrial projects where precision and timelines are everything.

Kevin oversees welding at CIT, but what really comes through is the pride in the craft and the responsibility that comes with it.

A lot of companies outsource critical parts of the process.

CIT has invested in keeping that expertise inside the building.

And you can feel the difference.

Thank you Kevin!

PS Please show Kevin some by like, commenting or sharing!

Is this a Star Wars character or a CIT team member? 🤔 🧐

In aerospace, there is no margin for error.

Every weld, every joint, every detail carries weight.

This is what that standard looks like in real life.

Skilled hands, disciplined process, and a level of precision that does not show up in a spec sheet, but shows up in performance.

At CIT, we are not just building components.

We are building confidence into every structure that leaves the floor.

CIT Folks let's tag our people!

CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2026 reminded us why this show only happens every three years.

⭐ 140,000+ attendees.

✅ 2,000 exhibitors.

🦅 Nearly 3 million square feet of innovation.

For CIT, this was our most successful show yet.

We saw our highest volume of leads ever, but more importantly, real conversations with companies looking for engineering, prototyping, and manufacturing solutions they can act on.

Huge credit to our team for showing up strong before, during, and after the show.

A highlight was welcoming a congressional delegation, including Lori Chavez-DeRemer, along with leaders from the Association of Equipment Manufacturers (AEM)

Nine hours a day on concrete is tough.

Conversations like these make it worth it.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by. See you in three years.
