OUR HISTORY OUR VALUES

The best of what

the excitement and
spirit of innovation
at the founding of
the Company on the
4th of July, 1855.		  
Our founder, R.T. Crane, wrote and spoke extensively
about the importance of business ethics and values,
the confidence and goodwill they engender among
employees and customers, and the competitive
advantage that can be obtained by taking the high
road. Today, his words continue to drive our business
philosophy and serve as a benchmark by which we
measure performance.
