Our materials and technologies platform provides strategic support throughout the company. For example, several Leggett plants draw various specifications of wire that we use in making some of our products, and also sell to other manufacturers. Other operations in this platform include our welded steel tubing business, an aluminum smelting and refining mill and our cut-to-size dimension lumber facilities. |

Our ongoing commitment to innovation and technologies also extends to research and development. Throughout our business platforms, Leggett engineers and technicians design and build new and improved components, products, and equipment, many of which are proprietary. Extensive durability and function tests are performed, and our continuous improvement processes are closely linked to R&D, further enhancing our efficiency. Engineering better products, plus better ways to make, sell and distribute them are Leggett hallmarks. |
