Valued Customers, Principals and Business Partners,
Voigt-Abernathy is excited to share updated news of the Facilities Expansion that is currently progressing at our Corporate Headquarters and Trussville Service Center. This thrust of this project is to foster and accommodate growth in the service, distribution and integration segments of our business. In spite of negative news reports about the economy, we are taking advantage of a strong cash position and a competitive construction market to make investments that will pay dividends for Voigt-Abernathy and our business partners in the near future. We are focused not only on maintaining our status as a leading supplier of equipment in the Southeast, but by continually investing, in an effort to increase our market share and put pressure on our competitors.
We are well underway with the addition of a 3000 square foot Warehouse & Fabrication Facility that will adjoin our existing warehouse; all equipment heavy equipment storage, fabrication, cleaning, painting will be housed in this new space. Moving fabrication to this new area will also keep our main Warehouse and final assembly areas cleaner.
We are also underway with addition of a 500 square foot Clean Room that will be located within the confines of our existing shop. The Clean Room is being designed with its own closed-loop HEPA-filtered HVAC system, high intensity lighting, special epoxy painted floors, approx. 60 linear feet of solid UHMWPE countertops, clean-up sinks and designated clean room tool crib with precision instrumentation. This clean room will provide a Grade A environment for storage and assembly of critical tolerance equipment. All bearing storage, rotating machinery assembly and stack-up, precision work, fits and ultra-clean work will be done here.
Lastly, we will be finishing all concrete shop and warehouse floors with bright, industrial-grade epoxy floor covering. This will further enhance the appearance of our entire facility.
Thank you! We appreciate your support and look forward to showing you our new shop!
