The culture at Southwest Agri-Plastics is centered around listening to both the market and the customer. A key value that we hold close is what we call our “Obsession with our Customer”. For over 50 years this obsession for the customer, and the innovation from our team has led to countless products that had positive impacts in various industries. An example of this would be in the poultry breeder segment. This industry had historically utilized wooden slats to elevate the birds off the ground. Wood is hard to clean and ultimately can hold salmonella which can have negative impacts on humans and birds. Additionally, wood can rot over time adding cost to the production system and create a safety concern for workers and animals. Our DURA-SLAT line was a revolutionary product that changed the way breeder hens are raised, and ultimately led to increased safety for the animals and consumers. This is just one of the countless examples where we obsessed with the customer, listened to the market, and created an innovative solution that changed an industry.
