More Than Modulars – Supplier Makes a Difference

With a customer base predominantly comprised of essential businesses, Bluco Corp. remains open and committed to earning their trust. Donning all the necessary PPE and abiding by all of CDC’s and Illinois’ mandates, the modular fixturing manufacturer has a big advantage: They’ve got what they need in-house to create customer solutions.

In late April, a machinist at Bluco’s 120,000-square-foot facility prepares to mill features on a weldment. The Illinois company produces precision modular fixturing for welding, machining, and assembly.

We’ve had a sign in our lobby for years that reminds us we’re here to make more than modular fixturing: We’re here to make a difference every day. And that’s never been more true than it is right now.

The majority of our customers are essential businesses, and we’re committed to helping them keep things moving. Our manufacturing and shipping areas are open, and all nonessential employees are working from home. We’re fortunate in that we use our own modular fixturing system to make fixturing solutions for customers, so we’ve got most of what we need in-house.

We’re following Centers for Disease Control & Prevention guidelines, and our employees are practicing social distancing whenever possible. Personal protective equipment (PPE) devices are available even though exposures are limited.

Along with everyone else, we’re monitoring the situation closely and adjusting policies and procedures as needed. We’re looking forward to having our entire staff back under one roof, but until then we’ll continue to Make it Better each and every day.
