“Because we are a family company and have a drive to
continue servicing our customers and industry, the future of
Royce Industries looks bright,” Calvin says. “We embrace
the obligation to stay current in all applicable areas and
continue to grow. Our strategy for growth and sustainability
will be attained through organic growth, mergers and
acquisitions. Ultimately our goals include better coverage
of the Intermountain West, including the eleven Western
States. We plan to reach this goal through expansion of
physical facilities, staff, infrastructure and technology.”
He points out that the groundwork for this growth was
set in motion years ago by Royce, whose vision includes
empowering others. “He has allowed his family and others
within the organization to excel in their own areas of
expertise,” Calvin says. “He has encouraged and paid for
continuing education in these areas, improving the company’s
position as an industry leader and further fostering
confidence among others. His vision is focused not only
on this generation but also on future generations. The
company not only has an ownership succession plan, but
a management succession plan, as well, further ensuring
its future success.
“Royce Industries’ products, themselves, are indicative of
our approach to the environment,” Calvin says. “Historically,
people and companies have used their garden hoses hooked
to their home or business to perform all types of cleaning
functions. This not only wastes over ten gallons of water
per minute, the lack of heat and pressure makes the work
take longer, further wasting both water and people’s time.
Furthermore, all this water historically goes into storm
water drains, then to rivers, streams and lakes, or directly
into the environment where it is used.”
Royce Industries, L.C. works to minimize
this waste. Cleaning equipment uses a fraction
of the gallons of water per minute, the higher
pressures and temperatures make any cleaning
application more efficient and safer, and the
company’s recovery products redirect the runoff
to approved areas and/or treatment equipment
with advanced technology to prepare it for
reuse. In addition, GPS technology and route
planning software minimize fuel consumption;
the detergents used are “green” products; sales
and service personnel are trained in the best
practice use of waste water recycling equipment
and patented wash-containment pads.
With the same ability to diversify, recognize
and embrace change that has marked its history,
Royce Industries, L.C. continues today to look
toward expanding into other areas, as well as
improving service to the areas it currently serves.
