Aurora, IL – April 30, 2024: PHOENIX is excited to announce the opening of their design and innovation center at the company’s national headquarters in Aurora, Illinois. This state-of-the-art center gives customers an opportunity to explore the closure manufacturing process from ideation to production.
“When we opened our new corporate headquarters in 2022, we knew dedicating a space that encourages collaboration with our customers throughout the product development process was imperative,” said Alby Miller, PHOENIX Co-President.
The next stop on the tour includes the PHOENIX Metrology Lab. The lab equips the Quality Team for root cause analysis, troubleshooting, and recommendations for process improvements to ensure customer success. Tour participants will witness live demos of specific tests that the Quality Team deploys to ensure high packaging standards.
Additionally, the PHOENIX Firebird Design and Innovation Center is used for focus groups, ideation sessions, and training new employees. “Our design and innovation center supports the development of products for our customers and validates the design, form, fit, and function. We are thrilled to share this space with our customers and suppliers,” said Miller.
