Blum-Novotest Expands Into New Kentucky Headquarters
Footprint growth provides capacity to better support customers and partners, as well as educate, train and demonstrate Blum-Novotest measurement and testing technologies.
As of Aug. 21, Blum-Novotest Inc. purchased and moved into its new North Americas headquarters, located at 1368 Cox Ave, Erlanger, KY, USA 41018. The new facility more than doubles the company’s office, customer technical center and warehouse square footage; it is just about a mile from the existing building and is located near the airport.
“North America is a strategic growth region for the Blum-Novotest Group,” says Lilian Barraud, president and regional manager – Americas for Blum-Novotest Inc. “The U.S. is the technological showcase of the world. Manufacturing industries are constantly improving competitiveness with a high level of automation and by integrating state-of-the-art measuring and testing technologies into their process. The Blum-Novotest measuring systems are ideally positioned to enable ‘lights out manufacturing’ in harsh, high-production facilities.”
According to Barraud, Blum-Novotest expanded its footprint to better serve and support its customers’ growth and partners network development. “With a larger technical and training capacity, our goals are to educate, train and demonstrate how Blum-Novotest technologies can support your industry-specific measuring needs today and tomorrow,” she adds. “With our new classroom-style space, we can host either virtual or in-person theoretical training as well as hands-on training and testing with on-site CNC machines. Our warehouse space will also increase to improve inventory availability and decrease time to market.”
