By displaying the logo, you show clients that you support the industry and subscribe to NOMMA's Code of Ethics.

O&MM Fabricator
Membership includes a subscription to our award-winning flagship publication, Ornamental & Miscellaneous Metal Fabricator. The full-color, glossy magazine is published bimonthly and provides information on fabrication, business issues, outstanding job profiles, member shop spotlights, tips & tricks, industry news, and more.

Fabricator's Journal
The NOMMA Education Foundation proudly offers you a bimonthly subscription to Fabricator's Journal, a bulletin that focuses on a different fabrication topic in each issue. The bulletins cover everything from anchoring to hinges and from laser cutting to fabricating nonferrous metals.

TechNotes
The NOMMA Technical Affairs Division proudly offers you a bimonthly subscription to TechNotes, which provides timely information on codes and standards that impact our industry. The bulletin provides "plan English" explanations of new codes and rulings and also gives you the latest news on the Americans with Disabilities Act and International Code Council.

Technical Support
Membership includes technical support on issues relating to building codes and standards. Areas we provide help for include ICC, ADA, ANSI 117.1, UL 325, and NFPA.

On-line Resources
As a member you get exclusive access to the Member's Only area of our web site. In this section, you'll find support areas for building codes, ADA, and UL 325. Plus you can download documents for free, including all back issues of Fab Journal and TechNotes, as well as selected Fabricator articles.

Top Job Awards Competition
All members are eligible for the annual Ernest Wiemann Top Job Contest. Enter your best work in any of 16 categories that covers sculpture, gates, rails, furniture, structural, and more. All entries are displayed in a gallery during the METALfab convention and the winners are announced at a special awards banquet on the last night of the event. Winners receive a beautiful plaque and the "best of the best" winner is awarded the coveted Mitch Heitler Award for Excellence.

E-Mail Discussion List
Get quick answers to your question by joining our on-line "ListServ." The systems connects you to a community of fellow NOMMA members around the world via e-mail. The ListServ works by "bouncing" each person's e-mail to all others on the list, and in that way conversations take place.

Member Discounts
Members receive discounts on all publications, DVDs, educational seminars, and METALfab (our annual convention and trade show).

Insurance Program
NOMMA endorses a member's only commercial insurance program that is custom-tailored for our industry. Our program is competitively priced and loaded with features.

Industrial Coverage Corp. has served as NOMMA's insurance program administrator since 1988. They are constantly evaluating new insurance products and services that can be offered to our industry. For more information, call (800) 242-9872 or visit their web site.

Chapters
If there is a local chapter in your area, you may participate in educational programs, social events, tours, and other activities. NOMMA chapters regularly provide excellent education programs and demos on the local level.

Member Locator
Our on-line Member Locator is one of the great benefits of membership. Owners and members of the design/build community regularly use the locator to find fabricators in their area.

Being a NOMMA member is very rewarding, the knowledge that you will obtain and networking opportunities that you have being a NOMMA member will pay for the cost of the membership for years to come. — Lynn Parquette, Mueller Orn. Iron Works Inc., Elk Grove Village, IL

What impressed me and inspired me to re-join NOMMA was the article in Fabricator that talked about the ListServe and its benefits. What a resource! — Bob Walsh, R. Walsh Gate & Railing
