 PROFILE
Whether it's funerals or niche-market health care services, Hillenbrand Industries buries the competition. The holding company operates three major subsidiaries. Its Hill-Rom unit makes hospital beds, infant incubators, gurneys, and other medical equipment in North America and Europe. Hillenbrand's two funeral service companies are Batesville Casket and Forethought Financial Services. Batesville is one of North America's leading casket makers and also sells cremation urns and other supplies. Forethought provides insurance-based funeral planning, and its subsidiary, Forethought Federal Savings Bank, allows individuals to save money for their own funerals. The Hillenbrand family owns about 25% of the company.
