Shaw Industries (Dalton, Ga.) completed the expansion of its engineered hardwood flooring manufacturing facility in South Pittsburg, Tenn.
The expansion, which cost $40 million, increases the plant’s capacity by 60 percent and has added “dozens of jobs” in the past few months as new production lines become operational.
“The expansion of our South Pittsburg engineered hardwood facility is a prime example of our continued investment in new product development and advanced manufacturing practices,” said Shaw Chairman and CEO Vance Bell in a statement. “Hardwood is important to Shaw’s business growth strategy.”
The facility was originally a yarn plant when Shaw converted it for hardwood flooring manufacturing in 2005.
