The Waldinger Corporation

Our service team had a blast last week at the ConnexFM | The Multi-Site Facilities Management Network 2024 National Conference. It was great to meet with so many current and future clients in the great city of Nashville. One of our highlights was being able to debut our new trade show booth!

“More young workers are going into trades as disenchantment with the college track continues, and rising pay and new technologies shine up plumbing and electrical jobs.” We need more trades workers, and the next generation is stepping up! Enrollment in vocational-focused community colleges has reached its highest level since 2018, after surging 16% last year. Those studying HVAC rose 7%, while those pursuing building trades jumped 23%. If you want to join a career where you are paid to learn and won’t accrue any debt reach out! 

We recently hosted a group of Avenue Scholars Des Moines students for a tour of our shop and headquarters in Des Moines. We’re proud to support the next generation of workers by introducing them to meaningful career paths in the skilled trades.

We're proud to celebrate Women In Construction Week by celebrating all the women in the field and our offices that build our communities. Women play a vital role in our company and we're committed to helping them grow their careers with us and make an impact on the construction industry. In 2023 we launched Women of Waldinger to connect, develop, and engage our teams and allow women to see their future in the construction industry.  #wicweek2024 #womeninconstructionweek

We recently caught up with one of our crews who work full-time at a cold storage facility in Council Bluffs, Iowa. This team maintains industrial refrigeration mechanical equipment that cools approximately 18,750,000 cubic feet of commercial freezer space in this 487,000 square foot state-of-the-art facility. This equipment includes cutting-edge Frick compressors, which our crew is particularly skilled at maintaining.
