This video excerpt from the conversation between Fulcrum’s president Dave Clark and (now remote) Director of Sales Kirk Nash:
“These are rough times for everybody. The good news for us is that as an organization we set ourselves up to excel at adaptability and creativity and times like these call for those types of qualities. So we’re doing well enough.

It doesn’t really require any sort of fleet activity or program to be part of for it to be fun, and so our market has stayed stable and healthy. And that’s formed as a prompt. A crisis is always an opportunity to think things through.
So it’s worked as a way for us to act more creatively and think through yet more ways to make things easier. In this case it’s that we have to remain very cellular in the way that we work. The good news about composites is that you’re dealing with chemicals all day every day, so everybody’s industrial hygiene leads into our personal hygiene.”
