Join us in celebrating the hardworking men and women who manufacture the products and materials we rely on each day. The first Friday of October is National Manufacturing Day and our real estate agents believe that we should all acknowledge the many manufacturing companies around Atlanta that provide residential, commercial, and industrial areas with food, steel, chemicals, and other vital resources.

One of the best ways to celebrate National Manufacturing Day is to learn about the many manufacturing companies operating in our own backyard. Atlanta's manufacturing industry employs hundreds of residents and bolsters our economy. On October 2nd, consider doing some research into these five manufacturing companies that call ATL home.

1. Atlanta Belting Company Inc. – 560 Edgewood Ave., SE., Atlanta, GA 30312
   For almost a century, Atlanta Belting Company has manufactured dozens of products for industries ranging from construction and commercial laundry to product handling and printing. Their custom belting includes conveyor belting, transmission belting, motorized pulleys, and conveyors and components. Serving the industry with excellence, Atlanta Belting Company strives to continue their success for another hundred years.
   
   
2. Kemira – 387 Technology Cir. NW. #300, Atlanta, GA 30313

3. Clorox Co. – 3201 Centre Pkwy, Atlanta, GA 30349
   The Clorox Company is a household name, and we've all certainly got at least one or two Clorox products underneath our sinks. For over 100 years, they've made our lives better by producing the finest cleaning and disinfecting products. These products, such as their Clorox Wipes, are perhaps more important than ever in our changing world, and we're fortunate to have an Atlanta-based manufacturing location where our residents can do their part in preserving the health and safety of our world.
   
   
4. 3M – 3700 Atlanta Industrial Pkwy NW, Atlanta, GA 30331

Offering both products for businesses and products for consumers, 3M's unique application of integrating science into our everyday lives can be within industries like automotive, health care, safety, government, transportation, and electronics. Far more than simply producers of office supplies and home improvement materials, 3M continues to make a dynamic impact in schools, on roadways, and in energy conservation.
