For 10 years, Ben mastered the complex technology behind diaper manufacturing at our Lewistown, PA plant.

From there, he switched gears and helped us launch our production line for Prevail® bladder control pads with innovative MaxSorb+ Zone® gel core technology - a category entirely new to him, Ben was eager to learn and step outside of his comfort zone.

Ben thrives on learning, problem-solving, and driving innovation - and at First Quality, he’s part of a team that is constantly evolving and embracing new ideas.

Looking back on this past year, we’re inspired by all we've accomplished together - starting an exciting new chapter in Defiance, Ohio, driving growth in Macon, Georgia, further expanding our product offerings with the addition of our new Home Care business, and so much more.

These accomplishments are more than milestones. They’re a testament to the dedication, innovation, and teamwork that define who we are. With exciting new additions coming to life in 2026, we look forward to building on this momentum and continuing to grow together.

Here’s to another year of making a difference. 💙

Every year, 1.3 million women begin the transition into menopause - that’s 6,000 each day.

Menopause is a natural stage of life, but for many women, it can bring unexpected changes like incontinence. We believe no one should face these challenges alone.

This Menopause Awareness Month, let’s talk openly, share resources, and support each other with dignity and compassion. 💜
