WHY:

To meet the steadily increasing demand brought on by the region’s unprecedented growth, the expansion will have a great economic impact on the community as the company’s largest manufacturing and distribution center outside of the LATICRETE headquarters in Bethany, CT. Not only will the expansion provide new jobs, but serve the Texas-region LATICRETE customers with high-volume items and other specialty products. Additionally, 20,000-square feet of the expansion will be reserved for future production growth in 2018.
