‧New Product R&D: Hand tools are characteristic of less volume, more variety, design oriented, and R&D oriented. HOME SOON owns close to hundred patents. The newly-released Deep Well Nut Setters can be coupled with electric tools and particularly used on longer bolts. This is an efficient, labor-saving, and time-saving method that breaks from traditional methods. As if a “firefighter” and “doctor” for screw tools and the industry, HOME SOON steps in whenever a new product arises, and develops a new tool to combine with it. If faults or defections are found, the company corrects the tool in correspondence with the product.
Strict Self-discipline
To be “Better” than just “Good”
“This industry applies to a very wide range of territories. We are involved in industries including screws, nuts, hand tools, auto spare parts, motors, bikes, sporting equipments, furniture, computers and so on.” Ernie, smiling, indicates that any company related to screws is HOME SOON’s primary client. Thus, the manufacturing industry that comes with booming emerging markets is like a sweet merit to the eyes of Ernie.
Looking at the future, Ernie mentions that he always puts high standard on himself, and “we have to make comprehensive upgrades starting from machinery, labor, packaging, land area, and factory improvement.” The achievement of “Better than the Best” will further boost the company in its future development.
