Stability and Expansion in an Uncertain Economy

April 2009

WOBURN, Massachusetts – North American Industries has recently won two significant orders with unique characteristics. In the first, NAI was tasked with providing 12 cranes, including bridge cranes, a monorail, and jib cranes to a designer and manufacturer of compact high pressure valves and manifold system components for the oil & gas industry, including onshore, offshore, and subsea applications. The systems, most of which had NEMA 12 dust-tight enclosures, will be installed in a test cell area, a work table area, a paint booth, and several machine shops.

The second order came from a company that designs and manufactures underwater cutting equipment. NAI designed two 2-ton bridge cranes with 45 foot spans that were constructed to load equipment into a test pool at a new testing and training facility in Louisiana. The Company worked in conjunction with a building contractor to meet the needs of the customer.
