The expansion will create 425 jobs and increase belting output by 50%.
For the third time in four years, Intralox is expanding operations at its Hammond, La., location. This time, the company said it is more than doubling its footprint with a $60 million expansion that will create 425 direct jobs as Intralox expands its molding and assembly operations.
Intralox said the expansion supports its growth and enables increased production. The facility, set to be complete by the end of 2022, will bring the Hammond plant’s total footprint to over 400,000 square feet while increasing belting output by 50%. The expansion will also allow Intralox to double its raw material inventory storage — critical for risk mitigation against material shortages.
