PM Engineer Chief Editor Nicole Krawcke had the chance to speak with several key industry stakeholders about trends and technological developments in the market, including: Greg Nahrgang, vice president, technical services and product development, Charlotte Pipe and Foundry; Adam Botts, product manager for Viega; and Steven Dolejsi, applications engineering manager, IPEX.
AJ Rose Manufacturing is a 100-year-old company in Cleveland that suffered a fire in March 2023, causing damage to a cooling tower. Pro Service Plumbing was brought in to install a new cooling tower and used 1-1/2" Viega ProPress Manual Balancing Valves for the cooling supply.
IPEX has invested in the Pineville area for more than 20 years, growing to its current footprint of five manufacturing sites and three distribution centers located across North Carolina.
According to these industrial pros, coming off of record highs in 2022, the health of the market today is more promising than 2021, but all of the above “storm clouds” are still at play.
