nVent completes a new manufacturing center in Blaine to support the growing data center market.
A significant trend among Minnesota's top companies is the strategic pivot toward the data center sector to support ongoing AI infrastructure buildouts. Among those benefiting is nVent, which recently finalized a new manufacturing center in Blaine dedicated to producing data center cooling equipment. The facility was established rapidly, moving from lease signing to active production in under 100 days.
Beyond nVent, major Minnesota corporations including Ecolab, 3M, and Forgent Power Solutions are increasingly focusing on products and services tailored to data center efficiency, such as advanced liquid cooling, water recycling systems, and power distribution hardware. Local private construction firms, including Ryan Companies, Adolfson & Peterson, and Kraus-Anderson, are also seeing increased activity driven by this regional and national data center expansion.
