<br />
<br />Atlas Incinerators, Inc., one of the largest
<br />manufacturers of on-site incinerators and pollution
<br />clean-up equipment in the United States, recently
<br />selected Ramsey as the site for its new corporate
<br />headquarters.
<br />The new $3.5 million facility, which will include a
<br />10,000 sq. ft. corporate office, a 28,000 sq. ft. pro-
<br />duction facility and a 28,000 sq. ft. service center,
<br />will be located in Gateway North Industrial Park.
<br />Atlas, currently headquartered in Coon Rapids
<br />and Blaine, chose Ramsey for several reasons, in-
<br />cluding its excellent location, the availability of skill-
<br />ed workers (Anoka Technical Institute), the adjacent
<br />industrial properties and businesses, and the
<br />amount of available land.
<br />We're extremely excited about becoming a part
<br />of the Ramsey community," said Robert Labat,
<br />Atlas' president. "We view Ramsey as a progressive
<br />and growing city, one that reflects the attitudes of
<br />our company."
<br />The new facility will have an appealing economical
<br />impact on the city. Besides creating more than 80
<br />jobs over the next four years, Atlas expects to at-
<br />tract othercomplimentary manufacturing businesses

<br />to the area. Because Atlas is an industry leader and
<br />sells its products nationally and internationally, many
<br />of its customers will travel to the new facility to review
<br />new equipment, technology and manufacturing
<br />processes.
<br />"The area's industries are very important to us,"
<br />said Labat. "In the past, we shipped in many of our
<br />raw materials from all around the country. Now many
<br />of these raw materials and technical services will be
<br />right in our backyard."
<br />Atlas' major business is manufacturing in-
<br />cinerators and pollution clean-up equipment. The
<br />new facility will enable Atlas to customize its in-
<br />cinerators for the most complicated situations, such
<br />as hospitals and industrial complexes.
<br />Founded in 1957, Atlas has installed over 20,000
<br />incinerators throughout North America, as well as
<br />in foreign countries such as Venezuela, Peru, Puerto
<br />Rico, EI Salvador, Saudi Arabia and India. Some of
<br />Atlas' customers in the United States include:
<br />MEl/Pepsi Cola (Burnsville, MN); Coca-Cola (Eagan,
<br />MN); Topps Chewing Gum (Duryea, PA);
<br />Washington University (St. Louis); Fairview
<br />Southdale Hospital (Edina, MN); McDonnell Douglas

<br />The new facility will also provide the Research &
<br />Development department with a highly sophisticated
<br />"white-coat" lab area, enabling it to test and develop
<br />state-of-the-art equipment components and products
<br />for commercial, institutional and industrial use. The
<br />new facility will enable Atlas to offer various national
<br />and state agencies the opportunity to jointly work
<br />with it to analyze data and information developed
<br />through its R&D area. In addition to R&D, the ser-
<br />vice center will have a state-of-the-art incinerator and
<br />pollution clean-up equipment as part of its testing
<br />process.
<br />The new headquarters will be built of pre-stressed
<br />concrete, with portions having brick facing. The facili-
<br />ty will also be professionally landscaped, befitting
<br />the corporate headquarters of a company operating
<br />in national and international markets.
<br />Atlas is currently going through the necessary per-
<br />mitting processes with officials from Ramsey and the
<br />Minnesota Pollution Control Agency and hopes to
<br />begin construction in early summer.
