Germany Shines Bright for Accede’s Moldmaker

Being a seasoned moldmaker has its perks. As a lead moldmaker, one of the perks is the opportunity to travel for your position. Ken Whitney, a 19-year Accede Mold & Tool veteran, recently journeyed to Aachen, Germany, to conduct maintenance on a customer’s mold. Accompanying Ken this time was one of our finest and newest mold makers, Joe Grieco.
