BENTON HARBOR, MI—Whirlpool is set to officially open its new office campus here. The $70 million project is a part of a larger plan to consolidate 15 facilities into three centralized office campuses.
During the past 100 years, Whirlpool has withstood labor unrest, mergers and acquisitions, product design changes, new technology, new materials, changing consumer tastes, globalization and restructurings. But, one thing has remained steady-its production prowess.
Structural adhesives are typically associated with automotive and aerospace applications. But, many appliance manufacturers are examining the pros and cons of bonding, because it offers numerous benefits. Despite those advantages, screws, bolts and rivets still remain popular with appliance engineers.
