Torrid Oven Incorporated - C.E.O. Robert Corcoran discusses production management - Brief Article

Automotive Finishing, Fall, 2000

"Finishing Technology for the 21st. Century in perfect harmony with the environment."

"Excellence in Finishing"

A tough credo to meet, admits Robert Corcoran, C.E.O. and founder of Torrid Oven in a recent interview at the company's engineering center.

"I think one of our strengths is the fact that we have been keenly focused on paint finishing for the past 35 years. Unlike the multinationals, we have not diluted our interests by diversifying into extraneous areas. We are totally committed to every aspect of paint finishing and are a fully integrated "design-build-install" systems group."

"Our greatest strength, however is our people. With the exception of staff additions over the past two years, our design engineers and installation managers each have over 20 years experience in the industry, most of it with Torrid. This irreplaceable asset is clearly reflected in our ability to help our customers meet their ever-increasing requirements for better finishing quality."
