Uponor Invests $6.35 Million to Expand PEX Pipe Manufacturing
Closing on the new facility expected to take place in August
Uponor North America announced that the company has signed an agreement to purchase an existing 237,000-square-foot manufacturing facility and office space in Hutchinson, Minnesota. The $6.35 million investment is located about 70 miles west from its North American headquarters in Apple Valley, Minnesota.
The company, which manufactures crosslinked polyethylene (PEX) pipe and related products, is growing its U.S. manufacturing operations to support continued opportunities in commercial and residential construction. Uponor expects the closing to occur by late August 2017 and become operational by early 2019.
