Noria Corporation Celebrates 10 Years of Innovation and Global Impact

While organizing my office, I reflected on Noria Corporation’s milestones and upcoming events.

Anniversaries: Noria Corporation is celebrating its 10th year in business in 2008. The company publishes Reliable Plant magazine, Machinery Lubrication, and Practicing Oil Analysis magazines, runs three content‑rich websites, and distributes three e‑mail newsletters. In addition, Noria delivers global maintenance and reliability consulting, hosts worldwide training and education events, and develops lubrication software. With offices in 33 countries, the firm has grown from a three‑person startup in Tulsa, Oklahoma, in 1998 to a leading industry partner.

Going to Nashville: Our flagship event, Lean, Reliable & Lubed 2008, is scheduled for May 20‑22 in Nashville, Tennessee. More than 1,500 industrial professionals will attend this international conference and exhibition. The program includes over 120 keynotes, case studies, industry reports, and training sessions, while the exhibition features more than 150 vendors showcasing solutions that drive reliability, performance, and productivity. If you haven’t experienced Lean, Reliable & Lubed before, it’s an event you shouldn’t miss.

In January, we posted our 10,000th informational file to the RP Web portal. Today, the portal hosts over 11,000 industry news articles, magazine features, web exclusives, and video and audio files, making it a comprehensive resource for professionals.

Newsletter news: The 75th issue of RP Mail, Reliable Plant’s data‑rich e‑mail newsletter, will be released this spring. We’re approaching 50,000 subscribers to RP Mail, which offers more than 40 articles, news items, white papers, and AV files in each issue. Our other e‑mail publication, Lean Manufacturing Journal, delivers a similarly substantial volume of information. Subscribe for free by visiting www.reliableplant.com and clicking the Newsletter link.
