Progressive Donates RTI’s & Components to Penn State Erie

Through its Tooling for Tomorrow program, Progressive Components made a donation of Rapid Tooling Inserts and other tooling components valued at more than $18,000 to the Plastics Engineering Technology program at Penn State Erie’s Behrend College.

John Beaumont, who is Program Chair, said in his letter to Progressive, “It is through the strong industrial support of companies such as yours that we have continued to grow and improve. We have a number of applications we will be reviewing for the mold components and inserts you have provided us.”

“Progressive is always looking for ways to promote the trade and keep great tooling programs like the one at Penn State Erie viable for the future,” said Glenn Starkey, president. “Seeing the photo they sent to us (below) drives home the significance of giving back to the industry whenever possible. These students are our future and they need all the resources and materials they can get if they are to succeed.”
