Congrats to the rig winner, Gino!

Paving the Way – Phase 2

Posted on June 24, 2022July 7, 2022 by Josie — 8 Comments

Phase 1 brought us new sidewalks, phase 2 brings us a new parking lot!

A new parking lot is just one of the great improvements we have been making to help our employees, customers, and vendors. It was entertaining to watch the machines every step to make our parking lot go from a hot mess to a smooth and organized space.

Step 1: The soil stabilizer

This heavy piece of machinery ground up the existing parking lot, mixed in a binding agent, and created a better base for vehicle traffic.

Step 2: Base Layer

This is a critical step to ensure the foundation for the parking lot is compacted correctly and has proper pitch for drainage.

Step 3: Asphalt

It was a pretty warm day, but these guys did a great job to ensure the paving machine created an even pour. We had two layers installed. After each layer, they used heavy rollers to compact the surface.

Step 4: Marking

If you have visited us before, you may have noticed that we aren’t the best at parking in a straight line. This not only looks great, it also added designated accessible spaces. No promises that the stripes will be helpful in the winter!

Stay tuned to see what other improvements we are doing!

Paving the Way – Phase 1

Posted on May 31, 2022June 6, 2022 by Josie — Leave a comment

As we continue to create generators that make your life easier, we also invest in our company to make it easier for our employees. We have started working on our parking lot. If you’ve visited us before, you probably thought, “They really need parking stripes!” You see, the parking lot has become half gravel and half pavement. It is very uncomfortable on my paws when I have to walk across it to get to the grass.

Phase 1: Sidewalks

We added sidewalks and an outdoor break area around the building.

Stay tuned for Phase 2!

Expos – Spring 2022

Posted on March 9, 2022March 21, 2022 by Josie — Leave a comment

Our Sales team traveled down to San Antonio to attend Spray Foam World Wide, the Spray Foam Expo, and the EGSA Spring Conference. This was a great opportunity to showcase our generators, as well as have communication on how WINCO can improve and create generators dedicated to the spray foam industry.

Spray Foam World Wide

WINCO teamed up with Spray Foam World Wide (SFWW) this year and donated a DE30. SFWW gave away a fully equipped spray foam rig, powered by a WINCO DE30. Our DE30 has a new design with a standard rocker manual panel along with the trusted FPT 3.4L engine, coupled to an industrial Cummins gen end.

We had our own give away drawing for a DE50.

Congratulations to Mid Michigan Spray Foam for winning the DE50!

SPRAY FOAM EXPO

The SprayFoam Expo had a record turn-out this year!

Our team was was busy showing off our new gasoline unit and the new DE designs. It was a great opportunity to meet our dealers and end users. This gave us a chance to hear what types of options the industry is looking for.

EGSA SPRING CONFERENCE

We sent Shane and Tyler to Las Vegas to participate in the EGSA Spring Conference. The two-day conference included classes and training on strategies and applications with special keynote speaker, Terry Bradshaw. They were able to meet up with a few of our dealers as well as go golfing with the group. Shane and Tyler were partnered up with Jim and Will from FM generators.

UP NEXT

The re-scheduled PowerGen will be May 23-25, 2022.

We are excited to show off at our largest booth yet!
