UTC building customer center in Florida

Hartford conglomerate United Technologies has decided Florida is the best state to build a new customer showcase center for its building systems technologies.

The new UTC Center for Intelligent Buildings in Palm Beach Gardens, Fla. will feature products from both air conditioning company Carrier and Otis Elevator Co., both of which are based in Farmington. The center also will showcase technologies from other UTC Building & Industrial Systems subsidiaries: Chubb, Kiddie and Automated Logic.

UTC did not disclose the cost of the new facility, but it will buy 30 acres of land surrounding the site. The conglomerate is receiving incentives from the state of Florida, Palm Beach County and the city of Palm Beach Gardens. 

UTC said it chose the Florida location because it is on the I-95 corridor and near three major airports, providing easy access for visiting global customers. It also is near other UTC locations, such as the Pratt & Whitney facility in Palm Beach.
