Miura Boiler - Low NOx Industrial Steam Boilers, Commercial Boilers, Steam Generators, Hot Water Boilers

In just its first few months, Miura Boiler's Rockmart facility and its contractors are already reaping the benefits of the Japanese company's forward-thinking approach to economic and environmental sustainability. So far this year, Miura's lone American plant has produced - or is in the process of producing - large capacity boilers for giants such as Coca-Cola and Pepsi, even numerous hospitals nationwide, including Duke University's. And all of this while using the skilled labor provided by many of Rome and Northwest Georgia's metal fabricators and suppliers.

With plant capacity to increase tenfold in the next three years, area suppliers, as well as freight distributors, hope to see a positive turn in their businesses. And though American manufacturing jobs are seeing more losses to outsourcing (as a "cost-cutting method"), some foreign companies are beginning to see the value in a skilled American workforce. Miura follows a number of foreign companies, such as Pirelli Tire and Suzuki, that have found the Southeast not only a hospitable place to set up shop, but specifically Northwest Georgia. The impact felt goes beyond those working in the offices and on the factory floor, but to the many local businesses that support them.

To this end, Miura seems to have a bright future ahead, here and across the rest of the nation, with its face-forward approach and its resolve to help the region's economy forge full-steam ahead into the 21st century.
