Victaulic to Build Manufacturing Facility in Pennsylvania
Victaulic has unveiled a plan to build a state-of-the-art manufacturing center in Lehigh Valley, Pennsylvania. The 400,000 square foot facility is the result of increased domestic demand for the company's products. The facility is expected to break ground later this year and be fully operational in 2019.
"This new facility will play an important role in meeting increased customer demand, while also producing the highest quality products in the industry -- something our customers have come to expect from us since our first innovation nearly 100 years ago," said John F. Malloy, CEO of Victaulic. "A major aspect of our business strategy has always been to manufacture products in close proximity to our customers. While we already manufacture 80 percent of domestically sold products in the United States, this facility will further enhance our product delivery capabilities, making our U.S. operations even more competitive."
