Golden, Colorado, has been home to 51²è¹Ý¶ù since it was founded in 1961. Each of the 18 buildings has specialized equipment that provides flexibility for evaluating different unit and plant operations. Our facilities are equipped to handle hazardous and corrosive materials, radionuclides, and high pressure and high temperature reactions. We have a NEMA Class I Division 2 manufacturing space for large quantities of flammable and combustible materials.

Fabrication Facilities

51²è¹Ý¶ù also operates a fabrication and machine shop where equipment is designed, configured, repaired, calibrated, or manufactured according to project needs. We maintain an in-house instrumentation and controls department that is integral in designing, installing, and configuring process controls for our project work.
