The American Boiler Manufacturers Association was founded over a century ago, in part, out of product safety concerns. Over the years, ABMA has maintained an impeccable reputation as a creditable source of technical expertise through its member companies. To advance that reputation, this page is dedicated to informing the public of technical applications, achievements, advancements and innovations associated with the boiler and combustion equipment industry and its various components. If you have questions or require additional information, please contact ABMA's Director of Technical Affairs, Geoffrey Halley . The technical papers that appear on this website have been prepared by ABMA members for informational purposes.
