Kömmerling USA Announces Expansion in Huntsville, Adds Additional Jobs
HUNTSVILLE, AL – Kömmerling USA, located in Chase Industrial Park in Huntsville, has announced an expansion and additional jobs for the local facility.
Kömmerling’s Huntsville plant will add two new production lines to manufacture window and door profiles. The company currently makes these products elsewhere, including Germany, and this expansion will allow the team to make these items here rather than customers having to import them. Kömmerling is rolling out expansion plans in several parts of the United States, with Huntsville’s addition being the first.
Dr. Peter Mrosik, owner and CEO of profine Group, emphasizes the strategic aspect of the investment.
“By expanding our capacities in Huntsville, we are continuing our international growth strategy and sending a clear signal to our partners and for mutual success,” said Dr. Mrosik. “The site’s upgrade and the additional property are a trend-setting step for profine Group and for its sustainable positive development.”
Currently, Kömmerling employs 125 people in Huntsville who produce plastic products for the graphics and homebuilding industries. With the expansion, 30 new positions will be added, and these will be folded in over the next two to three years.
This expansion by the company represents a $12.6 million capital investment, including $4.5 million to purchase new equipment, $7.5 million to upgrade the existing facility, and $600,000 to purchase additional land next to the existing plant.
“On behalf of the local Kömmerling team we appreciate profine Group’s investment in Huntsville,” said Brandon Moore, Chief Executive Officer – President of Kömmerling USA. “We look forward to growing as a company and within the community.”
Kömmerling is a global player and one of the world’s best known and strongest construction and window brands. The company delivers products to over 100 countries and has its own production facilities and branches at 29 locations in 23 countries. Kömmerling employs more than 3,000 people internationally, developing and manufacturing premium window systems and many other innovative products.
