Our Culture and Our Beliefs

Kinney Manufacturing strives to keep things simple. Some parts we produce have critical tolerance and very precise applications, but they are still a metal part. Based on this, we always need to keep our activities in perspective. We expect our team members to come to work each day with the expectation of working safely, making good quality parts and being productive. We then want our team members to go home and enjoy their time away from Kinney Manufacturing with their family and friends.

Kinney Manufacturing's commitment is to provide our customers, suppliers and team members with the information and/or materials to accomplish their activities efficiently and without drama. We want to communicate information clearly and only once, and then we all can have the expectation that the work will be completed.

We want to treat everyone that interacts with Kinney Manufacturing fairly and how we would want to be treated in return. Living by this simple concept should make it obvious how to solve problems and help others.

We believe that the key to maintaining and growing a successful business is to answer the phone when people call and deliver product on-time. Quality parts and a competitive price have become a requirement to be in business these days, and it is only with great customer service that our business will thrive.
