Check Corporation begins designing its own electronic control modules to improve the operation and efficiency of their seat heater systems.
That same year, Check is called upon to design a new flexible heating technology in response to requests in the Con-Ag industry for seat heat that can be integrated into a seat manufacturing process where the seat body and cover are fused into one unit during production. The result is a system that integrates into the seat during its production. Check secures multiple patents for this first of its kind, innovative seat heat design.
