RIDGID® , a part of Emerson’s professional tools portfolio, recently hosted their seventh RIDGID Experience, an annual celebration of the skilled trades held at RIDGID headquarters in Elyria, Ohio. Each year, the brand’s signature event rewards select members of the trades with an all-expenses-paid, three-day VIP trip that features hands-on experiences, fun and camaraderie.
“The enthusiasm for RIDGID Experience continues to grow and this year’s trip was more epic than the last,” said Maddie Suvak, engagement marketing manager, RIDGID for Emerson. “It’s often described as ‘the hottest ticket in plumbing,’ and we loved hosting lifechanging experiences for attendees, who joined us from across the United States and Canada.”
Pat Finley from Indiana described the trip as: “The best three days I could ask for. Friends and memories for a lifetime.” Herb Lisone from California, echoed that sentiment, saying, “Loved every moment! Great brand, great people, great team! Definitely felt the love, run it back!!!”
A highlight of the event was a factory tour that invited each guest to build their own iconic RIDGID customized pipe wrench. Guests also received a sneak peek at the latest RIDGID tools in development and provided feedback and insights. They also had the opportunity to network with attendees of Greenlee® Experience, a similar contest hosted by professional tools brand Greenlee. The two concurrent events created a full-scale celebration of the mechanical, electrical, and plumbing trades.
“Our team looks forward to the RIDGID Experience every year, and that’s especially true for our manufacturing team,” said Suvak. “There’s something special about having the people who use our tools get to shake the hands of the people who made them.”
