The company started construction of the 5,575 m2 facility, located in Tombal outside Houston, US, in July 2016.
At more than three times larger than Pigs Unlimited’s previous home, the facility will help the company to better meet the particular market demands of the evolving pipeline industry.
According to the company, it is one of the largest pig manufacturing facilities of its kind in the world.
The new facility features a state-of-the-art inventory management system, specialised chemical processing technology, multiple loading docks, and many other upgrades to improve the quality of products offered, production times and efficiency, as well as provide plenty of room for inventory or staging and stocking of large orders for projects of any size.
The size of the location also leaves the company with opportunities for future growth.
