Member News: Satellite Industries Celebrates 60 Years Sixty years ago, Satellite Industries was made up of a small inventory of wooden restrooms. The company began in 1958 when Al Hilde acted on his dream to create a business that offered private, sanitary restr oom facilities when permanent restrooms were not available. By 1972, thanks to the invention of the "Tufway" (a polyethylene portable restroom), their sales began to boom. 16 years later, in 1988, the company made the move to focus solely on supplying rest rooms, trucks, and deodorizers to other operators, rather than renting units. Today, they supply operators in more than 130 countries with many of their portable restroom needs – and they've never looked back. To celebrate this anniversary, the company g ave away 60 gifts to operators this spring as a thank you for 60 years of continued business. They also created two commemorative t - shirts for purchase that paid homage to their early years. All proceeds from these sales went to Karibu Loo, which many PSAI Members will recognize as our charity of choice from the 2017 PSAI Urgent Run. P AGE 12
