InSinkErator® Manufacturing Improvements

InSinkErator strives to invest in its people and facilities by renovating its 55+ years old production facility into an engineered assembly process driven by robots and advanced technology. This has enabled fabrication improvements and allowed for outsourced components to feed assembly lines to support greater production capacity. The facility is capable of producing over 35,000 household disposers per day. In addition, InSinkErator built a new state-of-theart world-class 87,000-square-foot headquarters in Mount Pleasant, WI. Built as a LEED-certified green building, the new space features an open-office concept with an abundance of natural lighting, a workout facility, an outdoor walking track, spacious cafe areas, focus rooms, and casual meeting places – all of which help create an enjoyable, creative, and collaborative work environment.

InSinkErator has restructured its distribution facility to support space effectiveness & space expansion by implementing VNA (very narrow aisles) & increasing the number of dock doors. Additionally, the new TMS (transportation management system) and enhanced tow motors enable better logistics flow and product distribution. The pandemic has forced manufacturing to change at an unprecedented rate, and the company’s manufacturing and distribution facilities have responded with improvements that make the brand more sustainable and resilient. InSinkErator continues to lead the industry in innovating the best products for customers, professionals, and homeowners.
