In January, a national trade organization based in Rockford is launching a magazine focusing on environmentally friendly manufacturing.

Fabricators & Manufacturers Association International Inc. will send Green Manufacturer six times a year to 100,000 subscribers.

From the group’s press release:

 “FMA believes that in today’s business environment, tremendous pressure is on all areas of an organization  — engineering, plant operations, facilities management, and top-level management — to understand and implement effective green or sustainable practices that improve the bottom line,” said Edward Youdell, group publisher of FMA Communications, Inc. “Green Manufacturer will deliver the guidance and practical applications that discrete manufacturers are looking for to implement in their green initiatives.”

FMA, founded in 1970, is a professional organization of more than 2,300 members working to improve the metal forming and fabricating industry.
