| Description: |
The Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) sponsors thirteen Information Analysis Centers (IACs), including AMPTIAC. Each of these centers covers a focused technical area, and all are operated under the watchful eye of the office of the Secretary of Defense (ODDRE). Technology advancements generate immense amounts of archived information. Finding specific information is intensely laborious in this ocean of data – especially materials property data. IACs locate, collect, archive, sort, and analyze data, relieving researchers, designers, and engineers of this burden. IACs also leverage this technical information by using it to develop specific products and services for assisting researchers, engineers, and program managers to effectively meet their mission requirements.

The American Fiber Manufacturers Association, Inc. (AFMA) is the trade association for U.S. companies that manufacture synthetic and cellulosic fibers. The industry employs 30 thousand people and produces over 9 billion pounds of fiber in the U.S. Annual domestic sales exceed $10 billion. AFMA member companies produce more than 90% of the total U.S. output of these fibers. The membership is limited to U.S. producers that sell manufactured fiber in the open market. The Association maintains close ties to other manufactured fiber trade associations worldwide. AFMA has been in continuous operation since 1933, when it was established as the Rayon Institute with headquarters in New York. As new fibers entered the market, the Association was renamed the Man-Made Fiber Producers Association. In 1970, operations were moved to Washington as the focus grew from promotion to include advocacy on a broad range of regulatory and international trade issues. The current name for the Association was adopted in 1988. The Association's Board of Directors is made up of senior executives from each of AFMA's member companies. Most AFMA programs are managed through committees and task groups of policy and technical experts from the companies. Permanent standing committees include the Trade and Statistics Committee, and the Technical Committee. The Technical Committee has task groups dealing with: Product Stewardship, Regulatory Affairs, Technical Communications, Toxicology, Product Flammability, and International Technical Affairs. AFMA's statistics division, the Fiber Economics Bureau (FEB), collects and publishes trade and production data on the manufactured fiber industry. This FiberSource internet site is maintained by FEB. It contains a comprehensive Suppliers Guide and other basic information on the industry and its products. |

ASTM International is one of the largest voluntary standards development organizations in the world-a trusted source for technical standards for materials, products, systems, and services. Known for their high technical quality and market relevancy, ASTM International standards have an important role in the information infrastructure that guides design, manufacturing and trade in the global economy. ASTM International, originally known as the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), was formed over a century ago, when a forward-thinking group of engineers and scientists got together to address frequent rail breaks in the burgeoning railroad industry. Their work led to standardization on the steel used in rail construction, ultimately improving railroad safety for the public. As the century progressed and new industrial, governmental and environmental developments created new standardization requirements, ASTM answered the call with consensus standards that have made products and services safer, better and more cost-effective. The proud tradition and forward vision that started in 1898 is still the hallmark of ASTM International. Today, ASTM continues to play a leadership role in addressing the standardization needs of the global marketplace. Known for its best in class practices for standards development and delivery, ASTM is at the forefront in the use of innovative technology to help its members do standards development work, while also increasing the accessibility of ASTM International standards to the world. ASTM continues to be the standards forum of choice of a diverse range of industries that come together under the ASTM umbrella to solve standardization challenges. In recent years, stakeholders involved in issues ranging from safety in recreational aviation, to fiber optic cable installations in underground utilities, to homeland security, have come together under ASTM to set consensus standards for their industries. Standards developed at ASTM are the work of over 30,000 ASTM members. These technical experts represent producers, users, consumers, government and academia from over 100 countries. Participation in ASTM International is open to all with a material interest, anywhere in the world.

MotionNET.com is the technical web portal designed by a team of experienced electronic and mechanical design engineers to help fellow engineers design and develop new products. Our goal is to provide engineers and buyers with the most efficient, direct and practical sources available, including products, manufacturers, distributors, standards and reference information. Along with the rest of the engineering community, each time we designed a product, automated a production process or integrated a system, significant time was spent trying to find the resources needed to do the job. We often used Internet search engines. Results often included potato chips and wood chips mixed with semiconductor chips. We found ourselves wishing there was an online database tailored for design engineers. We envisioned an online categorized database designed specifically for the electronic and mechanical engineering community. This database would allow you to select the desired type of product and give you the ability to click to and browse the specific product pages within each company's website. We also wanted quick access to frequently used references (such as an ASCII Code Table, trademark search, dictionary for spell checking, etc.). After an exhaustive search for such an Internet resource, we created MotionNET.com. It provides free access without requiring users to register. In addition to submitting MotionNET.com to numerous search engines across the Internet, we also registered thousands of product type domain names such as servomotors.com, actuators.net and framegrabbers.com. This allowed searchers to find multiple sources for such products. Our next step was to gather a team of people to assemble this information. We visited thousands of websites and created a relational database that included: Company category (distributor, manufacturer, etc.); Links and categories for each product type; Location of products page; List of distributors; Line card of manufactures; Contact information, including phone and fax numbers and email addresses.

| Description: |
Founded in 1989, the Aseptic Packaging Council (APC) is a trade association that represents the major U.S. manufacturers of aseptic cartons-Tetra Pak Inc.of Chicago and SIG Combibloc Inc. of Columbus, Ohio. Our primary mission is to inform the American public about the product benefits and environmental attributes of aseptic packaging. As part of that charge, we work closely with communities nationwide to encourage the inclusion of milk cartons and aseptic packages (commonly called drink boxes) in their recycling programs. The aseptic package, long a staple in European cupboards, is still little understood in the United States. But that's changing. In 1996, the aseptic carton won the Presidential Award for Sustainable Development, the only package ever to receive this coveted environmental prize. At a White House ceremony, Vice President Al Gore recognized the aseptic package for its earth-smart profile and commended the aseptic packaging industry for demonstrating extended responsibility through a product's life cycle and an outstanding contribution to a sustainable future. We invite you to learn more about this remarkable, lightweight, energy-efficient example of minimal packaging that retains flavor and nutrients and allows traditionally perishable products (like real milk) to stay unrefrigerated and shelf-stable for up to six months. It's been called the packaging of the future; to learn why, explore the categories listed on the left.

Since its discovery more than 5,000 years ago, asphalt has proved to be one of nature's most useful – and abundant – materials. Though you may never have considered it, asphalt (a petroleum byproduct), is a naturally occurring part of the environment. (And now thanks to advances in technology, asphalt roofing products are as friendly to the environment as they are to the buildings they protect.) No stranger to the building industry itself, asphalt has been used successfully as an excellent natural preservative, as well as an outstanding waterproofing and adhesive agent for centuries. For the past 150 years, in fact, asphalt has proved the most popular roofing material in North America. And deservedly so! |

Two longstanding societies, the Association of Iron and Steel Engineers (AISE) and the Iron & Steel Society (ISS), have now come together to build an organization that can endure the changes in the industry while providing unparalleled value for their combined membership. The Association for Iron & Steel Technology (AIST) was established on January 1, 2004, with a goal of advancing the technical development, production, processing and application of iron and steel. The best practices of both predecessor organizations were incorporated into AIST, and we now have a strong, international, member-based technical organization that can sustain itself in an environment of continual change. AIST is committed to presenting superior technical meetings, conferences, exhibits and publications to better serve those involved in the iron and steel community, including steel manufacturers, suppliers, consumers and academics.

| Description: |
AWCI is highly regarded by members and industry as providing valuable technical and product information, education and training, industry contacts and fraternity essential to operating a successful business, and is the principal organization advocating the interests of contractors, suppliers and manufacturers in the wall and ceiling industries. Twenty-six lathing and plastering contractors assembled March 11, 1918, to form the Contracting Plasterers International Association. The founders of this new organization planned for the CPIA to perform two important functions: to establish friendly and cooperative interests among the members and to provide service to the building public. As time passed, the CPIA would change its name four times to mirror a change in the industry or in the association's membership. The first name change occurred in 1955. In an effort to oppose any effort to separate the lathing from the plastering trade, the new name became the Contracting Plasterers' and Lathers' International Association. In 1969, when the volume of drywall/acoustical tile being contracted by CPLIA members had increased significantly, the association changed its name to the international association of the Wall & Ceiling Contractors. After a successful merger with the Gypsum Drywall Contractors International, iaWCC's name was changed to a combination of the two merging organizations, iaWCC/GDCI. The two associations consolidated July 1, 1976. Finally, after the merger had settled, the name was changed to its present form, The Association of the Wall and Ceiling Industries—International.Today, more than 75 years since its founding, AWCI continues to provide benefits for acoustical, ceiling, drywall, EIFS, fireproofing, insulation, plaster, steel framing and stucco contractors, suppliers and distributors, manufacturers and those in allied trades.

BCI also provides information to outside organizations and researchers. BCI establishes technical standards for battery manufacturing and actively promotes workable environmental, health, and safety standards for the industry as a whole. BCI actively promotes the recycling of spent lead-acid batteries and the use of recycled materials in the production of new batteries. As part of this endeavor, the organization collects statistical data to provide the annual recycling rate of lead-acid batteries. BCI also developed model battery recycling legislation at both the state and federal levels in the U.S., as a way to efficiently recover valuable resources and keep recyclable materials out of the waste stream. The model has been adopted by legislatures in 37 states across the country. The BCI battery recycling model prohibits lead-acid batteries from being incinerated or dumped in landfills, and discourages indiscriminate disposal of spent lead-acid batteries. It includes a mandatory take-back system imposed at the point of purchase, requiring consumers either to turn in a spent battery at the purchase of a new battery or pay a fee in lieu of the trade-in. For 1995-1999, the recycling rate is 93.3%.

| Description: |
Compressed air is not typically viewed as a cost of production—but it is anything but “free.” The generation of compressed air requires a huge amount of energy—and a piecemeal approach to building a compressed air system serves to worsen the problem through leaks, mismatched supply/demand, and inappropriate uses. The result is unreliability, energy waste, reduced productivity, and higher operating costs. Paying attention to your compressed air system can lead to a number of benefits. Compressed air is a utility that is generated in-house. That means that you have more control over it than any other utility. By learning more about efficient use of compressed air systems, you can improve efficiency, reduce costs, and increase productivity and reliability. This can lead to improved competitiveness, less downtime, and greater return on investment. The mission of the Compressed Air Challenge (CAC) is to develop and provide resources that educate industry on the opportunities to increase net profits through compressed air system optimization. The CAC has already developed a series of training sessions to help you learn more about the fundamentals of compressed air systems. A sourcebook and fact sheets are also available.

| Description: |
The National Tooling and Machining Association is a trade organization representing the precision custom manufacturing industry throughout the United States. Organized in 1943, the Association is incorporated under the state laws of Ohio. The Association functions in the basic manner of most national trade associations. Annually, the Association elects four non-salaried officers from among its membership; i.e., a chairman, two vice chairmen, and a secretary-treasurer. Principally, these officers are owners or top management personnel within member companies. None of these elected officers is active on a day-to-day basis in the Association; however, it is their function to provide basic direction and establishment of policies and priorities for the full-time salaried staff. The Association's daily staff activities are directed by the President and Chief Operating Officer, who is a full-time salaried employee. Under the executive's direction is a salaried staff numbering approximately 29 employees. The bulk of this staff operates from the main office in Fort Washington, Maryland. There are, however, three full-time employees located in different areas of the United States where they maintain permanent residence. These employees are responsible for membership enrollment and liaison work. The Association's major sources of revenue are derived through membership dues and the sale of various publications (principally textbooks and training materials). The Association's elected Board of Trustees is responsible for all major policy decisions. There are currently 50 trustees, with each trustee representing a specific geographic segment of the membership. Each trustee is elected by the membership from that geographic area to serve as an elected representative. Current officers and the five immediate past Chairmen serve as ex-officio trustees. The Board meets formally three times per year at national meetings to review Association activities and to implement new policy decisions as required. While the Board passes on major policy decisions, the recommendations resulting in such action are formulated by and emanate from the Association's various teams. Each team has a specific purpose and goal and is composed of owners and key management people from the various member companies. Each of the teams meets in formal session at the Association's regularly scheduled national meetings. In addition, interim meetings are scheduled from time to time at the team leader's direction. Among the most important of these Association teams is the Executive Team, empowered to act on behalf of the Board of Trustees between the latter's meetings or when a full Board meeting is not deemed practical. The Executive Team is comprised of the immediate past chairman of the Association as well as the four current Association officers. Today the Association's members number approximately 2,700 precision custom manufacturers located throughout the United States. From 1943 to 1964, the Association maintained its principal office in Cleveland, Ohio. During the latter year, the Association's headquarters office was moved to leased quarters at 1411 K Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. In 1971, a plot of land was acquired in Fort Washington, Maryland (9300 Livingston Road) and construction was begun. The Association took occupancy of its new quarters on June 24, 1972. A three-story addition to this building was completed in mid-1982. |

| Description: |
The membership of the Dayton Tooling and Machining Association approved a change in name and scope at a special meeting on October 29, 2003. DTMA’s new name is the Dayton Tooling and Manufacturing Association. By adding manufacturing, the DTMA Board of Trustees hopes to increase membership which will enable the Association to have greater influence on local, state, and national political issues. The expanded scope will also help the Association be more effective in marketing the region’s tooling and manufacturing capabilities. “Adding manufacturing to our name extends opportunities to companies who previously felt they didn’t fit in the organization,” said Becky Tracey, DTMA past-president and vice president of operations at Mutual Tool & Die, Inc. A strong relationship among tooling, machining, and manufacturing companies is crucial as the industry deals with increasing competition pressures from the global market. A larger membership base will result in a larger operating budget, which in turn, will result in increased member benefits and services. |

Electric Powers Supply Association |
| Description: |
EPSA is the national trade association representing competitive power suppliers, including generators and marketers. These suppliers, who account for nearly 40 percent of the installed generating capacity in the United States, provide reliable and competitively priced electricity from environmentally responsible facilities serving global power markets. EPSA seeks to bring the benefits of competition to all power customers. Formed as a result of a merger between the National Independent Energy Producers and the Electric Generation Association, EPSA combines the strengths and policy successes of those two prominent organizations on behalf of the competitive power supply industry. EPSA’s formation has given the competitive power supply industry the ability to speak with a single, unified voice at the national level. As the debate continues in the U.S. Congress, federal regulatory agencies, and state capitals around the country, EPSA advocates policies and positions that allow its member companies to compete aggressively for the privilege of serving electricity consumers. EPSA is confident that, as it has in other industries, such competition will bring lower prices, and more and better services for electricity customers. As such, the association will continue to play a constructive role in the intensifying congressional and regulatory debate about how to create efficient national wholesale power markets. Working in concert with the industry’s state and regional associations, EPSA also participates in precedent-setting regulatory and legislative proceedings in the states. EPSA members include many of the premier companies involved in the generation and marketing of electricity. Today’s power suppliers face complex technological, environmental, and risk management challenges. EPSA members are responsible for some of the most innovative solutions to these challenges. Those solutions have resulted in: more efficient generating technologies that have driven down the cost of producing electricity; cost-effective environmental solutions that have resulted in significantly cleaner air and water; innovations in power plant management and maintenance that have lowered operating costs without compromising reliability; cost-saving transactions among power marketers that move electricity to where it is most needed; and new comprehensive risk management strategies that result in more competitively priced power. The competitive power supply industry’s existing accomplishments foreshadow the possibility of even greater efficiencies and savings in a fully competitive market. EPSA’s goal is to bring the cost-saving benefits and innovative services its members offer to all consumers.

To address these issues the association ‘BELA’ [British Entertainment Laser Association] was formed and a number of strategic goals were drawn up. Subsequently it became apparent that other countries were facing similar issues and indeed interest was shown from overseas companies. It was therefore decided that a more international approach was needed and the association was re-named ‘ELA’ [Entertainment Laser Association]. It is anticipated, long term, that individual countries will raise local sub committees and have a single representative to the main committee. It is not the intention of ELA to compete with ILDA but to compliment and indeed form association between both bodies. We believe ELA will be well placed to initially give a European view to the international laser display industry.

Flexible Intermediate Bulk Container Association |

info@fibca.com |
| Description: |
Flexible intermediate bulk containers (FIBCs), also known as big bags, bulk bags, and bulk sacks, were first manufactured in the late 1950s or early 1960s. There is some controversy as to where the first FIBCs were made; however, it is known that FIBCs were made in the United States, Europe, and Japan during the time period mentioned above. The first FIBCs were constructed with heavy-duty PVC-coated nylon or polyester where the cut sheets are welded together to form the FIBC. These FIBCs were made with integrated lift slings around the container, or attached to a specially made pallet, or a metal lifting device that the container sat on. The handling devices allowed the container to be filled from the top and discharged from the bottom. The initial cost of these heavy-duty PVC containers is high; therefore, they are designed to be reused many times in a closed-circuit system, where problems of control logistics, prevention of contamination, cleaning, and liability for loss or damage can be agreed on by the shipper and receiver of the product. Flexible intermediate bulk containers manufactured with polyolefin fabrics were experimented with in England, Japan, Canada, and the United States all at about the same time in the late 1960s to the early 1970s. It was the development of these high-strength light weight fabrics (i.e., polypropylene) that spurred the growth of the flexible intermediate bulk bags that are universally used today.

The Glass Manufacturing Industry Council (GMIC) is a trade association of the U.S. Glass Industry that includes among its members, representatives of all four sectors: Flat, Container, Fiber and Specialty. GMIC, incorporated in September of 1998, is moving forward on a broad front to promote the interests and growth of the U.S. glass industry as a whole. Its formation represents a milestone development for the glass industry. Other industries (steel, aluminum, forest and paper products, etc.) have had organizations that have operated on behalf of the entire industry and have been very effective in consolidating benefits for the industry as a whole. Until the formation of the GMIC, the U.S. glass industry has had no umbrella body to represent its interests.

Hardwood Manufacturers Association |
| Description: |
Hardwoods are deciduous trees that have broad leaves, produce a fruit or nut and generally go dormant in the winter. America’s forests grow hundreds of varieties of hardwood trees that thrive in this country’s temperate climates. These varieties, or species, include oak, ash, cherry, maple and poplar. Softwoods are conifers, evergreen and cone-bearing trees. Widely available U.S. softwoods include cedar, fir, hemlock, pine, redwood and spruce. In a home, softwoods primarily are used as structural lumber such as 2x4s and 2x6s, with limited decorative applications. All the commercially available U.S. hardwoods are crafted into furniture, cabinetry, woodwork and built-ins. It’s simply a matter of taste, preference and availability. Certain hardwood species aren’t recommended for flooring because they’re not hard enough to withstand heavy wear and tear

Healthcare Compliance Packaging Council |
| Description: |
The Healthcare Compliance Packaging Council (HCPC) is a not-for-profit trade association that was established in 1990 to promote the many benefits of unit dose blister and strip packaging -- especially its ability to be designed in compliance-prompting formats that help people take their medications properly. Pharmaceutical noncompliance is a tremendous problem in the United States that drains an estimated $100 billion from our national economy every year, and is blamed for the deaths of over 125,000 Americans annually (342 people every day). Ten percent of all hospital admissions are the result of pharmaceutical noncompliance, and 23 percent of all nursing home admissions are due to people's inability to take their medications as prescribed. Better packaging can help! Unit dose blister and strip packaging can be designed in compliance-enhancing formats that remind people whether they have taken their medications. Birth control pills, certain antibiotics, hormone replacement therapies, and steroids are already being dispensed in unit dose packaging that has proven highly effective in helping people manage their pharmaceutical regimens. The HCPC strongly believes that if more products were packaged in a unit dose format, the noncompliance problem would be greatly reduced. While insurance companies and managed care organizations bear the greatest economic burden from pharmaceutical noncompliance, everyone must also pay a share in the form of higher taxes, premiums, and lost productivity. That is why the HCPC's goal is to inform and educate consumers, health professionals and policy makers about the role that unit dose packaging can play in improving pharmaceutical compliance. We are working for the day that consumers will have a choice when they get their prescriptions filled -- either the standard cap and vial format that does nothing to help them manage their medications, or a compliance-style, unit dose package that will help ensure that they actually take the medication as it has been prescribed.

Home Furnishings International Association is committed to strengthening the home furnishings industry through collective support, services, and leadership. The Association was founded in 1923 as a Texas state organization. As such, national chains were not eligible for membership, but the owners of independent, single store operations found a gathering place for owners of businesses just like theirs. Member services were developed to meet their specific needs. The litmus test for services was and continues to be, What needs to be done that members can't better do for themselves? Membership has now expanded to include any company involved in furnishing the home, anywhere in the country, in any segment of the industry. Permanent offices for the Association were established in downtown Dallas in 1925. HFIA has not moved too far away from its roots and now offices in the World Trade Center on the Dallas Market Center campus. Members and prospective members have a standing invitation to visit the offices in Dallas or look for us at most industry events throughout the year. Membership has value and members are valued by Home Furnishings International Association |

Industrial Ventilation Guidelines |
| Description: |
Industrial ventilation is a method of controlling worker exposure to airborne toxic chemicals or flammable vapors by exhausting contaminated air away from the work area and replacing it with clean air. It is one alternative to control employee exposure to air contaminants in the workplace. Other alternatives include process changes, work practice changes, substitution with less toxic chemicals, or elimination of the use of toxic chemicals. Industrial ventilation is typically used to remove welding fumes, solvent vapors, oil mists or dusts from a work location and exhaust these contaminants outdoors. The design and troubleshooting of industrial ventilation systems should be handled by a qualified ventilation engineer or firms specializing in this field. However, a basic knowledge of how exhaust ventilation systems work and some basic troubleshooting tips is included in this guideline.

| Description: |
Created in July of 2002, Manufacture Alabama is a new, full-service, trade association representing Alabama manufacturers and their partner industries. Manufacture Alabama was established by the merger of three associations representing many industries - the Alabama Chemical Association, the Alabama Textile Manufacturers Association, and the Alabama Industry & Manufacturers Association. All three associations had common interests and goals, and together create a stronger, more unified voice. We are active and engaged in the governmental process in support of our state's manufacturers and partner industries. Manufacture Alabama is all about adding value to its members and affecting outcomes in Montgomery. Created by Manufacturers for Manufacturers, we are the only professional trade association in Alabama that has as its sole objective the promotion, advancement and protection of the interests of manufacturers in Alabama. Manufacture Alabama members are among the nation's largest corporations, manufacturing products with household names. Others are small manufacturers, some even locally owned, with fewer than 25 employees but manufacture products that are essential to our state's high tech growth and a higher quality of life for all. Manufacture Alabama's Mission: To create a business and political climate that promotes a positive, competitive environment and enhances the opportunity for growth of Alabama manufacturers. Manufacture Alabama's Vision: To make Alabama the best business and political location in the U.S. for manufacturers. MANUFACTURE ALABAMA: PROTECTING JOBS In Alabama, we are in danger of losing jobs - our jobs and your jobs. The problem is so severe that seventeen percent of our state's manufacturing jobs have been lost in just the last seven years. Something must be done about it. At Manufacture Alabama, we realize that manufacturers are at risk. We also have an opportunity. It's about growth and expansion of manufacturers in Alabama. When manufacturers grow, so does our economy. Manufacture Alabama is for all for us |
