Our team - and Lt. Gov. Denny Heck - were amazed to learn that almost all of the mint flavoring that we consume in America, primarily through gum and toothpaste, comes through Callisons in Lacey. Thank you for this look inside your refreshing facility. Special thanks to video spotlight sponsor Impact Washington - NIST MEP. #MFGisWA #ISignedtheBus

The eighth-annual Manufacturing Week bus tour ended strong with a tour through Snohomish and Skagit counties. From advanced training in aerospace and trades to the production of precision parts, the milling of locally grown wheat into flour and the hand-crafting of dog treats from an ancient Himalayan cheese recipe, the final day of the #MFGisWA tour showcased the diversity, creativity and excellence of Washington's makers. AWB is proud to spotlight a few of the the thousands of great Washington manufacturers every October and we're committed to advocating for them year-round. Huge thanks to all the manufacturers in our state and to the presenting co-sponsors of our tour, Banner Bank and Premera!

Modern Hydrogen was founded in 2015 with investors and customers such as Bill Gates, NextEra Energy, National Grid, and Northwest Natural. The company’s mission is to make energy both cleaner and cheaper. Modern provides practical, clean energy solutions using existing natural gas infrastructure for hard-to-decarbonize sectors, and employs 100 people. The company manufacturers clean hydrogen generation technology using modern methane pyrolysis. Modern Hydrogen developed a pyrolysis process that is low-energy, low-cost, and low-emission. Starting with natural gas or biogas, Modern’s systems heat that gas up and break off the carbon atoms, leaving behind hydrogen molecules. The carbon can then be added to asphalt to be sequestered. The process is thermally driven and catalyst free, which means simplified operations and a low electrical load compared to alternatives. Taking advantage of existing, reliable infrastructure to deliver methane to the point of use means there is no waiting for truck deliveries, no need for large high-pressure storage, and no limitations based on your power supply. AWB visited the company’s Woodinville facility on Tuesday, Oct. 8, the fourth day of the eighth-annual Manufacturing Week bus tour.

Callisons, founded in 1903, provides mint and flavor products to customers around the globe. “Today, our flavorists are hard at work with our applications lab designing, crafting and testing new flavors—along with new and innovative ways to deliver them to make unique flavors,” Callisons said. “We blend scientific expertise, creative passion with scrupulous attention to quality so we can develop innovative products— from form to flavor—to consistently deliver the results our customers want.” Lt. Gov. Denny Heck, Department of Commerce Director Mike Fong and several members of the state Legislature joined AWB for the tour on Monday, Oct. 7, the fourth day of the eighth-annual Manufacturing Week bus tour. #MFGisWA

I firmly believe that "Rising Tides lift all Ships". Collaboration in Aerospace and manufacturing in general creates opportunity for success for all. Today we start day #2 of our Manufacturing Suppliers Expo in Spokane. We have a room full of industry leading companies that together create a team that makes me proud to serve our industry. NIMA, PNAA, Kirk Davis from CAMPS is here, Sam from PNDC will be here today as well. Visiting our Exhibitors are more amazing companies from across the US. We have all faced a lot of obstacles these past few years, however, this showing of determination and support gives me confidence that we are an unbeatable team. #pnaadvance #pndc #nwan #manufacturingsuppliersexpo #aerospace #nimaalliance #camps Nikki Malcom Denise Ryser Mark Norton Kirk J.
