The post Pushing Design Boundaries with Materials Science to Respond to the Voice of the Patient appeared first on �山ǿ��.

Since KKR’s acquisition in November 2018 and the introduction of a broad-based employee ownership program, MRP has made significant progress in driving growth and operational excellence. KKR’s investments in the business – including constructing a new global innovation center, optimizing manufacturing facilities, and investing in state-of-the-art new equipment – contributed to significant improvements in safety, input materials waste reduction, speed of new product delivery, and earnings growth. Under KKR’s ownership, MRP has completed acquisitions adding complementary new capabilities in the U.S. and U.K. and awarding shared ownership to all employees of the acquired businesses.

MRP is the latest example of KKR’s focus on employee ownership and engagement as a key driver in building stronger companies and driving greater financial inclusion. KKR introduced a broad-based employee ownership program for MRP employees as a free, incremental benefit and not in exchange for benefits, wages or wage increases (wages increased over 6% annually during KKR’s investment period). Other pillars of the broad-based employee ownership program included sharing business targets and regular progress updates with all employees, and giving employees a voice in capital expenditures and operational improvements. 

All of MRP’s more than 1,450 employees across six countries and four U.S. states, including hourly manufacturing production, technical and administrative employees, will receive cash payouts upon closing of the transaction, with payouts varying based on tenure and employment status. As part of the transaction, employees will receive pre-paid personal financial coaching and tax preparation services. Financial planning advice will be provided by Goldman Sachs Ayco Personal Financial Management in the U.S. and by RSM Global for international employees. Deloitte will provide tax services globally. 

“I am proud to have worked alongside MRP colleagues who have contributed in so many ways to the Company’s performance. Together we have been able to deliver the fantastic results that made this sale possible,” said Josh Weisenbeck, Partner at KKR who leads KKR’s Industrials private equity team. “This is a great outcome for all employee owners and our limited partners in KKR’s Americas XII Fund.”

Since 2011, KKR has implemented broad-based employee ownership and alignment programs, first pioneered by KKR’s U.S. Industrials private equity team and more recently expanding across all control investments within KKR’s Americas Private Equity franchise. To date, KKR has awarded billions of total value through broad-based equity programs to over 45,000 non-senior employees across over 25 companies. KKR currently has 30 portfolio companies with ownership programs. In April 2022, KKR joined more than 60 leading organizations in becoming a founding partner of Ownership Works, a nonprofit created to support public and private companies transitioning to shared ownership models. 

“MRP shows the power of building an ownership culture, something we believe many more companies can replicate, and the potential of the shared ownership movement,” said Pete Stavros, Co-Head of Americas Private Equity at KKR. “Trelleborg is a great cultural fit for MRP and the ideal strategic partner. As part of Trelleborg, MRP will continue to be an employee-centric organization with exciting opportunities for continued innovation and global growth.”

MRP’s global employee base is located in the U.S., Mexico, the U.K., China, the Czech Republic, and France. The Company’s U.S. operations are located in Plymouth, MN, Litchfield, MN, Mason City, IA, River Falls, WI, and Pawling, NY. “The impact on these communities can be profound,” added Pete Stavros. “Ownership Works has a mission to create $20 billion of wealth over the next decade for lower-income and diverse workers; I am excited for this latest landmark in that journey.” 

The MRP management team is expected to remain in place and continue to run the business under Trelleborg’s ownership. Becoming part of a larger organization, which is a global leader in polymer solutions, will unlock new benefits for MRP customers and professional growth opportunities for MRP employees.

“Today’s announcement is the culmination of a lot of hard work by our dedicated employees and KKR’s shared ownership model has allowed all MRP colleagues to share in this success,” said Jay Ward, CEO of MRP. “Joining Trelleborg is an exciting opportunity to expand our global reach while we continue to fulfill our commitments to delivering excellence and innovation for our customers.”

The transaction, which is subject to customary regulatory approvals, is expected to close before year-end 2022. 

KKR and MRP were advised by Houlihan Lokey as financial and M&A advisor, and Kirkland & Ellis as legal advisor on the transaction.

At �山ǿ��, we know that our customers are innovators who want to try to come up with solutions to their projects before involving a third-party supplier. We also know that with seemingly endless options of material choices, it’s beneficial to have a way to narrow those choices down. That’s why we created a Material Selection Tool. This tool will help innovators, whether an engineer or R&D expert, begin to explore material options for the components in their design.

We have a library of thousands of custom elastomer material formulations and standard high-performance thermoplastics.��We offer a full spectrum of materials — including rubber, silicones and thermoplastics — which can be customized to your exact specifications.

This tool isn’t meant to replace a consultation with a material scientist, but it will help you start your innovation journey. If you involve us early in your design process, our immersive collaboration approach can open new doors and explore solutions that improve the performance and value of your products.

Here’s how the Material Selection Tool works:

1. Enter the information you know about the material characteristics and/or the application. You don’t need to know everything, but the more information you enter, the more relevant the results will be.
2. The selection tool will supply you with a sortable list of potential materials to explore
3. Next, explore these material options by downloading the material data sheets
4. Contact us for a consultation with our materials science experts – use the data sheets as a guide in your discussion.

Try our Material Selection Tool and let us help you bring your product to life, faster.

St. Patrick Catholic School 8^th grade class attended an engineer-for-a-day experience at �山ǿ��’ new Innovation Center

MINNEAPOLIS – June 6, 2022 – Quadion LLC, d.b.a. �山ǿ�� (MRP), a leading provider of highly engineered elastomer and thermoplastic solutions, today hosted the 8^th grade class of St. Patrick Catholic School of Hudson, Wisc for their “engineer-for-a-day” experience. Eighth grade student Megan C. from St. Patrick’s School in Hudson, Wisc. was selected as the winner of the contest, earning her entire 12-person class a visit to MRP’s new state-of-the-art Innovation Center in Plymouth, Minn. and $2,500 in STEM supplies for her school.

Megan’s entry, “Solar Power Solution to Make Contaminated Water Drinkable,” outlined a solution for securing clean drinking water using solar power and hydrophobic filters.

Speaking to teacher Julie Mattimiro and her 8^th grade Earth Science class, Karthik Viswanathan, Vice President of Product Development, shared what he called “unsolicited advice”, in hopes of inspiring young minds to leverage their curiosity:

1. Do not let ambition get in the way of your experiences – live in the present and do not always worry about what comes next.
2. Tough lessons are more valuable than good experiences – never be afraid to try something new.
3. Join a group where you don’t know many people – coming together for a common goal shows what humanity is capable of despite our many differences.

The class joined MRP experts on a tour of the recently opened Innovation Center and learned from materials scientists and engineers in the areas of design, process and tooling. From the advanced materials lab through design and the prototype production center, students had an opportunity to experience firsthand how prototypes are made and learn how small rubber components play a critical function in daily lives.

The students were shown:

• A cell culture assembly for cancer treatment
• A transmission seal ring for automotive applications
• A specialized O-ring for bringing natural gas and clean water into homes.

In addition to the tour, students were presented with $2500 in STEM supplies which will be distributed through all grades of St. Patrick’s, which has approximately 200 students in pre-K through 8^th grade.

Finding the right materials is as important as ever, especially in the medical device industry, but it’s not getting easier. The global medical device industry is expected to reach and (and by 2028), and an aging population means innovation can’t slow down even as labor shortages and supply chain challenges threaten timely production.

On top of that, the growing sophistication of devices necessitates materials, partners, and processes that can meet exacting standards of precision. For medical device manufacturers, the need for options is clear, and custom black rubber is emerging as a material to help medical device engineers create additional or alternative market value.

Like liquid silicone rubber, custom black rubber is flexible, versatile, resistant to harsh chemicals, leaks, and tears, has a high temperature tolerance, and is biocompatible for medical device applications. Additionally, the formulations for custom black rubber compounds are nearly infinite thanks to its multiple ingredients.
