Somerset To Relocate Engineered Hardwood Flooring Plant to Kentucky

Jan 24, 2024

Somerset Hardwood Flooring announced it will relocate its engineered hardwood flooring production to Somerset, Ky. The relocation will add between 20 and 50 new jobs in the area.

As a result of the relocation, the company’s plant in Crossville, Tenn., will close by the end of the first quarter of 2024.

“We anticipate minimal impact to service related to this consolidation,” Somerset said in a statement. “This change will allow for all manufacturing to be on one physical site, increasing efficiencies, quality and carving the pathway for future growth and investment.”

Somerset Hardwood Flooring was acquired by Switzerland-based Bauwerk Group in 2022.
