Our Commitment

The Highest Quality Industrial Boilers

Johnston Boiler Company manufactures the worlds largest Scotch Marine firetube boiler. We pioneered the first water backed boiler over 100 years ago and the first packaged boiler, over 65 years ago. Our commercial and industrial boilers are built to last and are the only industrial boilers in the industry to carry a 15-year warranty. In addition to the quality and dependability of our products, the conservative design of our boilers provide excellent fuel to steam efficiency, resulting in the absolute best life cycle costs in the industry.

Made in America Since 1864

This claim is more than a tagline or a slogan at Johnston Boiler Company.  It is what we have been doing for 159 years and what we do each day here in Ferrysburg, Michigan.  It differentiates us from every other boilermaker and possibly every other manufacturer in the world today.  It shouts longevity, loyalty, and patriotism.  The mature, conservative market we serve embraces these qualities and enjoys this reality.

To differentiate is to become distinct or different in character.  To be unique is to create some space between you and others.  Having a company that has been in continuous manufacturing operations since the Civil War sets us apart from the crowd.  Being in the same location for all these years while making the same product is a ridiculous accomplishment yet refreshing in this swiftly changing world.

Our customers crave reliability and longevity.  They favor low cost, but understand exceptional quality comes at a higher price.  Today, we continue to focus on quality rather than quantity.  Our brand is known to be robust and durable to withstand difficult load swings and other challenging operating conditions.  Our products are built to last decades with minimal maintenance resulting in the lowest life cycle cost rather than the lowest initial investment.  Our independent manufacturer’s representatives who sell and maintain our products understand the Johnston brand and target market.  Most of our representatives have been with us for over 20 years with many more years to come.

America is an absolute industrial powerhouse.  It has a reputation for high volume and high-quality products built by a talented and experienced workforce that follow high quality standards and practices.  America is a leader in creativity and innovation and is the largest economy in the world with one quarter of the world’s GDP.

Americans are acknowledged to be the most patriotic country in the world. We are fiercely loyal to our country and our communities.  We are proud of the products we build, and we prefer to buy American brands.

For these reasons and more, “Made in America Since 1864” resonates with many people.  As U.S. companies begin to onshore operations in the coming years, we believe they will see the value of a product that has been made here for over 150 years.

Environmental Awareness

We are well aware of the changing environmental requirements. While our standard Johnston burners can attain less than 30 ppm NOx, we understand that some regions of the United States are requiring NOx emissions as low as 9 PPM. We are constantly striving to implement the best available technologies in our products. In many cases, we are able to meet or exceed the emissions requirements set by the EPA, and we will continue to explore areas of improvement.
