I have toured this facility and I was very impressed. Neat, organized, work instructions posted at work stations, clean top to bottom. The owner is a fantastic engineer and a man of deep integrity. If you are looking for a partner to supply your steam sterilizer needs, FDI products and people cannot be beat.
