HVAC Products Manufacturer to Expand under Offshore Group Shelter Plan

    TUCSON, AZ, February 15, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Schofield, Wisconsin - based Greenheck Fan will soon enlarge its manufacturing footprint in Saltillo, Mexico.

The company has signed an agreement with The Offshore Group to expand the leased space at the La Angostura Industrial Park from its current 35,000 to 70,000 square feet. The doubling of production space will eventually result in a proportional increase in the plant's workforce.

According to the company's General Manager, Dave Kallstrom, "The decision to expand our Mexican manufacturing operation was driven by the significant opportunities we see to sell our products duty free into Mexico, and further south, in the near future. In addition to the North American Free Trade Agreement, Mexico has cemented similar bi-lateral accords with Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Honduras, Venezuela and others. Mexico is an excellent platform from which to make inroads into these potentially lucrative markets."

Greenheck is the leading supplier of air movement and control equipment that includes fans, dampers, louvers, kitchen ventilation hoods, and energy recovery and make-up air units. Greenheck equipment is used in all types of commercial, institutional, and industrial buildings in applications from comfort ventilation to manufacturing processes.
