82 THE DISTRIBUTOR’S LINK WORLDWIDEFASTENERSOURCES.COM, LLC 11305 E. Monument Drive, Scottsdale, AZ 85262 TEL 602-793-2383 EMAIL mmcguire@worldwidefastenersources.com WEB www.worldwidefastenersources.com FASTENER INNOVATION AWARD By Mike McGuire Innovation is a very powerful motivator and one of the greatest qualities Americans have and use every day. The United States leads the world in innovation, particularly in fasteners and fastening systems. Fastener innovation is so strong and ongoing, it is called a “Technology Trend” in the fastener industry. Worldwide Fastener Sources.com has taken their entrepreneurial spirit once again and has developed the new Fastener Innovation Award to recognize the people and companies that are leading the way to specific performance with new fastener development, innovation and design. Today, fastener engineers and designers dictate that fasteners are an important component of product design and are now thought of “first” in specifying fastening applications, not an afterthought of how to assemble the product. The driving force in the evaluation process for a Fastener Innovation Award by Worldwide Fastener Sources.com is that the fasteners be innovative in assemblies today and that they will be tomorrow’s standard. Our philosophy is continuous improvement with the innovative solutions for customers’ fastening applications. The Certificate of Recognition was presented to three honorees at the recent STAFDA convention; 1 Shot Steel Anchor®, Grabber® and Simpson Strong-Tie®. The other six honorees are Bollhoff, Bryce Fastener, ITW Shakeproof Group, MAThread®, Penn Engineering and Stanley® Engineered Fastening. A Reploge Crystal Marquise globe was chosen instead of a plaque for its honorees because of its unique innovative modern design. BUSINESS FOCUS ARTICLE WORLDWIDE FASTENER SOURCES.COM
