Progressively led, culturally grounded
It’s who we are, how we work and how we succeed
There exists within Lacks a duality that has served the company well from the very beginning. On one side, there’s the forward-thinking, risk-taking mentality that drives Lacks to create innovative, groundbreaking products and processes. On the other, there’s a deep-rooted devotion to community, both inside and outside the company. These cultural characteristics make Lacks both an exceptional place to do work and to be part of.
Do it Right, and do it Every Time
Striving to do the right thing is part of our heritage and is why we succeed
From the very beginning, it was established that if Lacks was going to do something, it would be with a full commitment to do it properly. Product development, research, volunteering, environmental responsibility—total devotion in these areas and more can be seen throughout our history.
