No longer torn between the quick and the dead, Hill-Rom Holdings (formerly Hillenbrand Industries) has cast its lot with the living. In 2008 the holding company spun off its funeral services business Batesville Casket into a separate entity owned by newly created holding company Hillenbrand . That separation left Hill-Rom Holdings focused on its other operating unit, Hill-Rom , which makes, sells, and rents hospital beds and other patient-room furniture and equipment, along with stretchers, surgical table accessories, health care software, and non-invasive equipment for pulmonary and circulatory conditions and wounds. Its customers are acute and long-term care facilities around the world. To read the full description, subscribe now.

Competitive Landscape for Hill-Rom Holdings, Inc.
The volume of home furniture sold depends heavily on the level of home sales, while office furniture sales depend on the health of the US economy. The profitability of individual companies is closely linked to volume, since many costs are fixed. Small companies can compete effectively if they produce specialty items or high-quality workmanship that can sell for a premium price. Imports are a major competitive factor, totaling more than $26 billion a year, and many US manufacturers have factories overseas, where labor and production costs are lower than in the US. Foreign competition and production overcapacity have combined to keep prices low. Additionally, despite automation, the made-to-order nature of much of the business means that the industry is fairly labor-intensive: average annual revenue per worker is around $250,000.
