Amesbury has been home to Munters in the USA for more than 50 years. We’re proud to be a member of the community, its largest employer, and that about one-third of our Amesbury workforce are residents of the area.

We have these rolling hills and trails with places to walk your dog or go for a trail run.” Amesbury introduced its master plan, I AMesbury 2030, back in 2021 and has been heavily relying on community involvement ever since to create a cohesive vision for the city’s future. “We started with local feedback and listening sessions to hear about what mattered most to the community and looking at our past documents to see what we’ve achieved, what we needed to celebrate, and what we’ve missed,” Gove recalls. “We wanted to find out what we could do to overcome some of the hurdles that we’ve seen.”
