Nikki speaks with Chelsea Lantto, president of Trenton Forging Company, a forging company that delivers high-quality forged steel components.
Although not new to forging, as a second-generation leader of the company, Chelsea shares the history of Trenton Forging and how it's become a family operated business. The company strives to complete their long-term plan of gradual automation to replace outdated technology while also prioritizing the well-being of their workforce.
They talk about the company's growth, the decision to invest in automation, competition in the market, and the need to always look to the future to continue innovating in the centuries old craft of metal forging.
