Meet the Maker: Ben Carlson and Nick Hernandez of Furnace Industries (Mini Episode)
Manage episode 386598528 series 3517603
Introducing the Meet the Maker series.
Each day this week we’ll be releasing a mini episode with an entrepreneur who is making specialty gear for ice climbers.
🎙Today we chat with Ben Carlson and Nick Hernandez, Co-Owners of Furnace Industries, which make gym-safe training equipment for ice climbing and dry-tooling.
Quite simply, you’d be hard-pressed to find another company that has done more to promote dry-tooling in the U.S. Core to it all, it’s because they care.
The company was started as a way to give back to the community. Ben and Nick knew they weren’t going to chase FAs or push the grades, but they could help folks train year-round and encourage new people to try the sports. Why? They believe in giving back to the sport that has given them so much – from sponsoring ice fests and Team USA to loaning out tools for dry-tooling nights to producing educational material – Furnace Industries is always forging ahead to help the community.
Hear more about their story and what makes their tools special in today’s episode.
🎁 Furnace Industries doesn’t really do sales, but Ben and Nick are graciously offering a one time discount for listeners. For details, check out Furnace Industries' episode post on our Instagram page.
