Ardex Americas has begun construction on a new marketing building at its corporate headquarters in Aliquippa, Pa., as well as on a 50,000-square-foot manufacturing facility and technical training center in Stockton, Calif. The marketing building will be completed by early summer 2012 and the new plant will open in the spring of 2013. In addition, upgrades are being made to the Aliquippa, Pa., and Dallas, Ga., plants. These developments mark the largest expansion by Ardex Americas since it moved its corporate offices, training center and plant to Aliquippa in 2000.
The new Stockton plant is part of a multimillion-dollar strategic project that focuses on the expansion of the Ardex Tile and Stone Installation System. In addition, 20 to 30 new employees will join Ardex Americas to support this strategic initiative, adding 10 percent to its existing workforce.
