According to a media release, the expanded footprint allows “MPI to streamline workflows, introduce new product lines, and enhance service delivery across its regional and national customer base.”
“After years of planning, we’re excited to offer the next generation of metal panel manufacturing to our new and loyal customers,” says Mitchell Hentkowski, MPI president. “This move is more than just an expansion—it’s an investment in our customers. The additional space and well-designed layout will allow us to optimize production, reduce lead times, and deliver innovative new solutions for contractors and builders.”
The advanced facility features:
• Spacious two-lane customer pickup bays
• Rollformers capable of producing 23 profiles
• Automated bending brakes for custom trim
• Three profile deck lines and a purlin line
According to the news release, these enhancements will support higher production volumes, consistent product quality, and faster turnaround times.
