Core Values
At PLS, it’s personal. Our pursuit for developing the very best possible manufacturing processes for medical devices starts with fostering a culture of quality. We thrive on transparency, collaboration and hard work, and are sticklers for discipline and consistency. We create an environment of accountability, learning, and always striving to be better than yesterday.
We are firm believers that the people we surround ourselves with – internally as a team, and in our relationships with clients and suppliers – deserve priority treatment. We build off each other’s strengths and honor each other with integrity and respect. As a company, we get together outside the office for all of the holidays, and we have monthly potlucks to develop and reinforce the camaraderie and power that comes from working as a close-knit group.
Individually and as a team, we take pride in making products that improve health and happiness.
