Expanding the 100+ Local Service Team to Meet Growing Demand
To support its growing U.S. operations, Bodor has built a strong and reliable presence in the U.S. market, with a robust U.S. team of over 40 dedicated professionals, part of a broader North American workforce exceeding 100 employees." As part of its $20 million investment, Bodor will further expand its U.S. workforce-especially its service team-to meet rising demand for localized, high-quality support. This expansion will add additional technical experts for on-site machine installation and maintenance, alongside customer support staff focused on training and remote troubleshooting, ultimately improving response times, service quality, and overall customer satisfaction.
"Expanding our team is essential to maintaining the high level of service our customers expect," said Su Lin, the General Manager of Bodor Laser Inc. "This investment goes beyond increasing headcount-it's about securing the right talent to provide fast, localized support that our customers can rely on."
Building a Strategic Technology and Service Center to Empower Local Industry
Complementing this workforce growth, Bodor plans to establish a cutting-edge Technology and Service Experience Center in the United States, designed to serve multiple strategic functions. The center will house an advanced research lab dedicated to laser cutting and welding technologies, driving innovation tailored to the specific needs of the North American market.
In addition to its R&D capabilities, the facility will offer live demonstrations and hands-on training, allowing customers to directly engage with Bodor's latest solutions. To further localize its operations, the center will expand Bodor's assembly capacity, accelerate delivery timelines, and reduce logistics costs, effectively empowering manufacturers' productivity in the United States.
By integrating tech innovation, customer engagement, and local support under one roof, Bodor underscores its long-term commitment to U.S. manufacturing. This expansion will bring new job opportunities to the region and deliver high-quality, customized solutions that meet or exceed the most stringent U.S. industry and FDA regulatory standards, ensuring unparalleled safety and performance.
Strengthening Local Spare Parts Support beyond 5-Year Warranty
Providing timely and reliable support to customers has always been a top priority for Bodor in the U.S. market. Central to this commitment is Bodor's well-established spare parts warehouse, which has been instrumental in delivering fast and dependable service.
Building on this solid foundation, Bodor will significantly expand the facility as part of its investment-adding inventory, increasing storage capacity, and improving fulfillment efficiency.
This expansion will further reduce response times, enhance supply chain resilience, and ensure rapid access to critical components nationwide. By strengthening its service infrastructure, Bodor is enhancing operational continuity and minimizing downtime for its customers.
"In today's competitive market, equipment reliability is paramount to customer satisfaction," said Su. "Beyond the 5-year warranty we guarantee now for laser source, laser head, and control system, our expanded parts inventory will allow us to respond faster, ensuring that our customers' operations run smoothly without delays."
Looking Ahead: Strengthening Foundations and Driving Growth
Building on a strong and stable operational foundation, Bodor's $20 million investment marks a decisive step to enhance its U.S. capabilities. By expanding its workforce, infrastructure, and local engagement, the company is elevating service quality and innovation to better meet the growing demands of American manufacturers.
Looking ahead, Bodor is committed to driving innovation and leadership in U.S. manufacturing. Leveraging advanced laser technology and strategic partnerships, the company aims to enable smarter, more sustainable, and digitally connected production-empowering manufacturers to improve efficiency, adapt rapidly, and compete globally.

Go Green Global Announces Merger Talks, Product Milestones, and First Commercial Sales in Transformative Quarter
NEW YORK, NY – Go Green Global Technologies Corp. (OTC: GOGR), a clean technology company, has unveiled a series of strategic moves, signaling a transformative period of growth and innovation. The company announced it has signed a non-binding Letter of Intent (LOI) to merge with an AI and robotics firm, achieved its first commercial sales for its CALCLEAR™ water-treatment line in North America, and reported significant progress in the field validation of its core Sonical™ technology platform. The cornerstone of the announcement is the planned merger with Four DRobotics® Corp. ('FDR'), a Canadian automation and robotics company that specializes in edge-controlled systems for mission-critical sectors such as mining, utilities, and defense. The LOI outlines the intent to merge the two companies into a single, vertically integrated entity. This new enterprise would combine Go Green's patented Sonical™ pulsed-power hardware with FDR's advanced autonomous robotics and edge-intelligent control software. The companies plan to launch a joint R&D division to explore deep integration possibilities, with the first pilot initiative being an autonomous AI HVAC optimization system. This system will fuse intelligent automation with Sonical™ flow-conditioning to deliver measurable improvements in energy usage and predictive maintenance. 'We're at a pivotal moment in the evolution of agentic AI, and this merger allows us to pioneer intelligent systems that combine software autonomy with high-impact hardware,' said Corrine Couch, Chief Operating Officer of Go Green Global Technologies. 'By aligning with Four DRobotics, we can accelerate our mission to deliver sustainability solutions that not only protect the planet but also drive real savings for our customers.' Jeremy James, President of Four DRobotics, echoed the sentiment. 'Integration of Go Green's Sonical™ platform with our Agentic AI solution creates a unified cyber-physical system capable of self-optimizing performance across energy, water, and industrial applications,' he stated. Beyond strategic partnerships, Go Green has secured its first commercial revenue in the North American market for its CALCLEAR™ product line. The company, which is the exclusive North American distributor for CALCLEAR™, sold 20 units to an HVAC company based in Norwalk, CT, for resale to retail and commercial customers. This entry is aimed at the global descaler market, which was valued at $9 billion in 2023 and is forecasted to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9% through 2030, according to Verified Market Reports. CALCLEAR™ units are designed as a chemical-free solution to prevent mineral and scale build-up in boilers, cooling towers, and water heaters, a significant cause of energy inefficiency in the HVAC industry. 'We're seeing great interest in the product and look forward to expanding our network of sub-distributors,' commented Ms. Couch. Parallel progress is being made on the company's foundational Sonical™ platform, a patented technology that uses a low-voltage electro-physical device to create a pulsed variable electric field. This field alters fluids at a molecular level to improve efficiency and treat water without chemicals. Recent early-stage field trials of Sonical™ water treatment units in residential environments have yielded promising outcomes, showing a significant reduction in existing scale and preventing new deposits. Meanwhile, development continues on Sonical™ fuel treatment units, which are aimed at improving combustion and reducing emissions. Following a Memorandum of Understanding, partner company Camber Energy (OTCQB: CEIN) has received earlier-generation units and is preparing a comprehensive testing protocol to guide the design of next-generation prototypes. Together, these developments in M&A, commercial sales, and technology validation mark a period of accelerated activity for Go Green Global Technologies as it works to scale its impact across the water, fuel, and energy sectors Disclaimer: The content provided in this article is for informational purposes only and does not constitute financial, investment, or trading advice, nor is it a recommendation or solicitation to buy or sell any security.
