Riding Together for a Greater Purpose From the moment the music started to the final pedal, Instron’s 2026 Cycle for Survival event was a powerful mix of energy, emotion and purpose. Stories from patients and survivors filled the room, inspiring participants to push themselves—not for bragging rights, but to raise as many dollars as possible for rare cancer research. That unique combination of energy, camaraderie and purpose is what drew Matthew Spiret, Instron’s director of product marketing, to organize the division’s first ride in 2019 – and what inspired Jeff Shaffer, Instron’s director of sales for the Americas, to be among the first to sign up and continue participating each year. Headquartered in Norwood, Massachusetts, Instron, part of ITW’s Test & Measurement and Electronics segment, is the global market leader in materials testing, known for developing innovative equipment and services that advance mechanical testing.

Across ITW, the Enterprise Safety Strategy provides a shared foundation based on the philosophy that all accidents are preventable. Now celebrating its 10-year anniversary, the strategy was designed to be practical yet flexible, giving divisions a consistent model to drive continuous improvement. Safety Days have been part of ITW’s approach to safety for years, and within the Construction Products segment they have become a proactive, cross-functional way to set expectations and reinforce positive behaviors. Around the world, sites pause normal operations for training, team building and aligning on safety priorities. For example, at the Power Nailing site in Pocahontas, Arkansas, U.S., Safety Day gave teams time to step back from production and focus on everyday safety behaviors. In Denmark, colleagues saw the impact of these moments firsthand while visiting the division’s Middelfart site as part of a safety peer audit. Local ownership is the core of Safety Days. While the execution lo

Hi-Cone recently launched a new on-site solar installation at its Charleston, Illinois manufacturing facility, advancing our efforts to reduce environmental impact through renewable energy. The installation is expected to avoid the equivalent of approximately 9,331 metric tons of CO₂ emissions annually, comparable to removing more than 2,100 gasoline-powered vehicles from the road each year. By generating clean electricity on site, the solar project reduces reliance on traditional energy sources while supporting more efficient, resilient operations. The installation also contributes to the expansion of regional solar capacity, helping support state sustainability goals and increasing access to clean energy within the broader community.

At the ITW Automotive Seats and Motion facility in Barcelona, Spain, targeted safety and ergonomics improvements are helping reduce risk, improve working conditions and support a proactive safety culture. To address ambient noise and improve situational awareness, the facility replaced acoustic alerts on all assembly machines with color-coded visual signals. These alerts allow operators to quickly identify equipment downtime, material needs or missing components without unnecessary noise, reducing distractions and supporting safer, more efficient operations. The facility also eliminated the need for manual pallet lifting through the installation of a new pallet loader on the production line. This upgrade reduces physical strain on operators and supports safer material handling practices. In addition, maintenance technicians now use gel knee pads when performing tasks that require extended work at floor level or in low positions. This simple improvement helps reduce pressure on the knee
