Groundbreaking news!
We have broken the ground for our new manufacturing plant in North Carolina, U.S.
Thursday, March 2nd, we officially reached the next milestone in Premix’s history. A groundbreaking ceremony for the new Premix compounding manufacturing plant took place on Thursday at Apple Creek Corporate Center, Gaston County, NC.
“The new capacity will improve Premix’s global supply capability and mitigate risks in global supply chains. With the new U.S. facility factory, we will improve our ability to serve our customers in the important U.S. market,” says Jari-Matti Mehto, President and CEO of Premix, Inc. ”We are proceeding in line with our plans and schedule regarding construction and building the US organization.”
With a state-of-the-art greenfield compounding plant and excellent logistics connections, the new manufacturing facility will significantly improve U.S. domestic supply security by offering our customers better global supply capability, mitigating risks in global supply chains, and serving our customers better in the U.S. market.
The new 66,000 sqft facility will include manufacturing, warehouse, quality control lab, office, and social facilities. The facility will be operational latest by August 2025. Investment is supported by the U.S. Government, the State of North Carolina, and Gaston County.
