Testimonials
Throughout my time in the automotive glass industry (18 years), I have learned that building relationships is the key to success. For me this is driven by 3 key factors: honesty, integrity, and ownership, even when the products are not performing as they should. Twelve months ago, Larry Lindland (President & CEO) and I sat down with his new salesman Paul Black (Regional Sales Manager) for introductions and to discuss a previous failed coolant trial.
Larry opened the conversation up by owning his teams’ failures and asked what his team needs to do better. Over the last year, Paul and the LaPel team has delivered on every key point of our meeting and has worked to deliver a specialized product that will help to optimize the running conditions at my facility. From after-hour and weekend support to face-to-face meetings for the validation of their products, to onsite prep and management of products, LaPel left no rocks unturned. The buy-in to the success of their customers with quantitative results, shows the passion each member of the team has for their products and customers.
-Adam, Senior Production Specialist, major Automotive Glass Manufacturer
I am convinced this [MSIL-100] is a great product for anti-skid application and I think you will like it also. Not planning on going back to any of the previous products we have used over the years.
