When R&D Expertise Changes a Life: A Powerful Story of Belonging from Our Mexico Plant Team

What happens when a team of R&D experts applies their skills to a challenge they’ve never faced before? 

At our Aguascalientes plant in Mexico, innovation is more than just a process – it’s a reflection of our "Experiment and Learn" mindset and a deeply rooted commitment to our people. When the team heard the story of their colleague Edwin, a refugee from Honduras who had spent a decade struggling with a poorly fitting prosthetic, they knew they had the tools and the heart to help.

By repurposing the same materials and technical expertise they use to design world-class products, the team collaborated to create a custom solution that changed Edwin’s life. It’s a powerful reminder that when we lead with empathy, our skills can solve problems far beyond the factory floor.
