Viega Building Program

This summer, Viega completed a two-year building program that included:

• A 90,000-square foot expansion of a manufacturing plant, completed in Dec. 2017.
• A new 205,000-square-foot manufacturing plant, completed in June.
• A new 25,000-square-foot tool shop and apprentice building completed in July.
• A lot of the new space will go toward copper fitting production.

“The goal is to be producing the majority of copper fittings sold in the U.S. right here in McPherson,” added Eric Wicker, Viega’s director of manufacturing.

Also, a 90-foot tall, 55,000-square-foot logistics expansion to existing distribution space featuring a high-bay, robotic storage and picking systems for added inventory was in the works.
