Adding Services Brings Respect to Ohio University In-plant

The best part, he says, is that at the end of the fiscal year, the in-plant will give a portion of the proceeds back to the university to be used to replant trees and aid in other campus beautification projects.

Making Their Mark

Another niche the in-plant has developed is laser engraving of wood, leather, glass and acrylic items. Using a 60-watt LaserPro Explorer, with a rotary attachment, the in-plant personalizes items like steins and plaques. To celebrate the recent inauguration of the school's new president, the shop engraved 100 clocks and 300 pens, which were given to attendees. Kasler says the response to this service has been overwhelming.
