"The Innovation Center enables us to focus on creating value through innovative products and processes by allowing us to experiment, disrupt the status quo and discover the unmet needs of our customers."

According to Dunford, the Innovation Center complements the Advanced Development Center by fusing the ideation, concept development and product validation processes seamlessly.

"This new facility will help us expand our global R&D capabilities from a strong base of chemical, mechanical and industrial engineers to material scientists, physicists and electrical and lighting engineers," said James DeLaHoussaye, Global Director of Innovation. "This will support our vision of providing innovative engineering solutions and our goal of value added functional integration."
