This Memorial Day, we pause to remember and honor the service members who gave their lives for our country.

On Friday, the Birk Manufacturing team gathered at Rocky Neck State Park for our annual Memorial Day weekend company picnic. The afternoon included our annual softball game, lawn games, music from a local DJ, a summer raffle, and Birk summer essentials for everyone to kick off the season.

We’re thankful for our team, our community, and the freedoms we enjoy because of those who served.

Wishing everyone a safe and meaningful Memorial Day!

Today is Employee Appreciation Day, and at Birk we’re celebrating the people who make everything we do possible.

The first Friday of every month we hold a company-wide gathering, and this month it landed perfectly on Employee Appreciation Day. The theme? Superheroes.

Because behind every custom heater we design and manufacture is a team of people whose dedication, creativity, and teamwork make it all happen.

Today we’re celebrating our everyday superheroes.
Thank you to our incredible team for everything you do. 🦸‍♂️🦸‍♀️
