Suwanee, Georgia – Winton Machine Company is proud to announce its designation as a Certified Georgia Made Company, recognizing nearly three decades of manufacturing innovation, economic impact, and a commitment to producing high-quality industrial automation solutions in the State of Georgia.
The Georgia Made program celebrates businesses that manufacture, create, and grow products within Georgia while contributing to the state’s economy, workforce development, and reputation as a leader in American manufacturing. For Winton Machine, the certification reflects a longstanding commitment to designing, engineering, and building advanced tube and coax fabrication machinery in Georgia since 1997.
Founded by George and Lisa Winton in the basement of their Lawrenceville home, Winton Machine has grown from a small startup into an internationally recognized manufacturer serving customers across the United States and in countries around the world. Today, the company operates from its manufacturing facility in Suwanee, Georgia, where it designs and builds more than 100 models of tube and coax fabrication machines used in industries ranging from aerospace and electronics to HVAC, medical devices, telecommunications, construction, and defense.
“Being recognized as a Georgia Made company is especially meaningful because Georgia has been an important part of our story from the very beginning,” said George Winton, Co-founder and President of Winton Machine. “We have always believed in investing in local manufacturing, creating jobs, supporting workforce development, and proving that world-class industrial equipment can be designed and built right here in Georgia.”
For nearly 30 years, Winton Machine has remained committed to domestic manufacturing while many competitors have shifted production overseas. The company designs and manufactures its machinery in Georgia and has built a reputation for delivering customized automation solutions that help manufacturers improve productivity, consistency, and operational efficiency. This ability to adapt standard equipment and engineer custom solutions has become one of the company’s defining strengths.
The Georgia Made designation further highlights Winton Machine’s role in supporting both Georgia’s economy and the broader U.S. manufacturing sector. Over the years, the company has served more than 500 customers and expanded its reach into global markets while maintaining its Georgia headquarters and manufacturing operations. Winton’s equipment has contributed to projects ranging from commercial refrigeration and HVAC systems to aerospace applications, satellite communications, and advanced defense technologies. Their automation solutions have even been used to manufacture components for NASA exploration programs and other critical industrial applications.
In addition to its manufacturing achievements, Winton Machine has become a strong advocate for workforce development and STEM education throughout Georgia. The company has supported internships, apprenticeships, and educational partnerships designed to encourage students to pursue careers in manufacturing, engineering, and skilled trades. Company leadership has actively worked with educational institutions and industry organizations to help strengthen Georgia’s manufacturing workforce pipeline and ensure future generations have opportunities to succeed in advanced manufacturing careers.
The company’s commitment to excellence has earned recognition from numerous organizations over the years. Winton Machine proudly represented Georgia at the 2018 White House Made in America Product Showcase, where it was selected to showcase Georgia manufacturing on a national stage. The company has also received multiple business and economic impact awards, including recognition from the Gwinnett Chamber for its contributions to job creation, economic development, and manufacturing leadership.
“Georgia has provided an incredible environment for manufacturers to innovate, grow, and compete globally,” said Lisa Winton. “This certification recognizes not only the products we build, but also the people who make them possible. Our team, customers, suppliers, and community partners have all played a role in helping us build a company that proudly represents Georgia manufacturing.”
As manufacturing continues to evolve through automation, software integration, and advanced production technologies, Winton Machine remains focused on investing in innovation while maintaining its commitment to American manufacturing. The company continues to expand its product offerings, develop proprietary software solutions, and help manufacturers solve complex production challenges through automation and engineering expertise.
The Georgia Made certification marks another milestone in Winton Machine’s journey and reinforces the company’s dedication to designing, engineering, and manufacturing high-quality automation equipment in Georgia for customers worldwide.
Nearly three decades after building its first machine, Winton Machine continues to demonstrate that Georgia manufacturing can compete globally while creating local jobs, supporting communities, and advancing the future of American industry.
