Just over a year after breaking ground, United Grinding North America, Inc. (Miamisburg, OH) has officially opened the doors of their new 110,000 sq ft headquarters in preparation for a ribbon cutting event on November 3. This new facility brings their cylindrical, surface and profile grinding business units as well as their automation and rebuilding departments from their existing offices in Miamisburg, together with the staff from their tool and cutter grinding machines and measurement systems sectors who were formerly located in Fredericksburg, VA. With this consolidation of diverse product lines and customer service initiatives, the company has sought further process optimization and stabilization in the name of providing exemplary service for their customers across the hemisphere.

“We’re sending a strong, powerful message to the market and our customers that we are investing in the future,” said Steve Jacobson, the company’s president and chief executive officer. “This new facility, with all of its productivity improvements and attention to detail, is the best way to build upon the partnerships we’ve developed and bring innovative services to our customers in the most efficient and cost-effective way possible.”

“The building’s innovative design is one that will further enhance efficiency, strengthen customer service and boost operational agility,” added Dr. Michael Gebhardt, the group’s project leader for the new headquarters and the vice president of operations. “Our customers have expressed a need for faster response times and complete life-cycle solutions. To that end, we designed a building as advanced as our machines, engineered for precision and speed.”

“By consolidating our resources and increasing both our company-wide efficiency and support synergy, we are able to deliver an unparalleled level of customer service while creating a foundation for further growth,” noted Rodger Pinney, the vice chairman of the board of directors, who agreed with Dr. Gebhardt.
