Since its founding in 1944, Martin Engineering has been recognized as the innovator in improving the handling of bulk materials. The new Center for Bulk Materials Handling Innovation continues and enhances that leadership.

The Center for Bulk Materials Handling Innovation (CFI) provides industry-leading capabilities for the analysis of bulk materials and practical, full-scale testing of systems and components.

Martin Engineering sets the pace for practical innovations to make your bulk materials handling cleaner, safer, and more productive.

It all starts by working with you, improving the handling of your bulk materials, at your facilities, to meet your requirements.

Engineers and Research Scientists at the CFI will focus on projects that provide solutions for the bulk material handling industries in three ways:

1. Partnerships with specific customers and other industry leaders (including associations and universities) looking at solutions for specific problems in materials handling.
2. Focused research on identified problems in industry.
3. Basic research on bulk material characteristics and performance.
