» Earlier this year Miller Bonded began construction of its new pipe fabrication facility, which managers expect will achieve gold level LEED certification.

Miller Bonded’s new pipe fabrication plant will have ample bicycle parking--no big deal, really. The 16,000-square-foot facility, to be operational by the first of next year, also will have parking spaces dedicated to hybrid vehicles. But that by itself is, again, no big deal. Neither are the solar panels, the evaporative cooling system, or the machines that filter and recirculate air from welding fumes.

It’s really about the combined savings they generate and the new business these green initiatives spawned. A mechanical contractor in Albuquerque, N.M., Miller Bonded has suffered through the commercial real estate mess. But unlike many, the company has found new opportunity amid crisis. Managers hope the new building will meet the gold level of the U.S. Green Building Council’s Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Green Building Rating System(tm). Miller’s managers have learned a lot from tackling a LEED project, so much so that the company now is selling services that help owners run their buildings as efficiently as possible.

May 18, 2010

May 2010 Groundbreaking » Joined by government, city and industry officials, the MBI team celebrates breaking ground on their newest project.

With a focus on the future, Miller Bonded Inc. is building a 16,000-sq-ft pipe fabrication shop and warehouse adjacent to their existing duct fabrication facility and offices in Albuquerque.

“We are confident that things will bounce back, and when they do Miller Bonded is going to be prepared to move ahead full force, which is why we have decided to initiate our own construction project,” says MBI President Ken Otteni.

Freeman’s Finest will serve as the general contractor on the design by NCA Architects, while MBI will be the mechanical and plumbing contractor on the job.

The project is set to be completed in December and will be seeking LEED gold. The pipe fabrication shop will supply pipe for MBI jobs as well as fabricating pipe for other mechanical contractors. With the new expansion, they will be able to produce pipe more efficiently for a higher volume for projects.
