R&R Products Tour TPI attendees took a field trip—a tour of R&R Products, a leading manufacturer of replacement parts for the commercial turfgrass industry. With a facility exceeding 300,000 square feet, and over 275 employees, this family-owned and operated corporation manufacturers more than 25,000 different parts. Te Rogers family and their R&R Products team conducted a fascinating “show & tell” as they guided the groups through their facilities. Tey even provided a delicious lunch, catered by a leading local restaurant.
Computerized manufacturing processes are programmed for precision.
