Trimite Powders Inc., a powder-coating manufacturer, recently announced a $3.7 million investment to double the size of its current operations at 5680 N. Blackstock Road in Spartanburg County.
The expansion, which is being done by Roebuck Buildings Co., will allow the company to expand into a variety of markets and is slated for completion in January.
However, the expansion is not expected to generate any jobs directly, but will allow the facility to “capitalize on increased demand for our products and prepares us for the next stage of our growth plan,” said Trimite Powders Inc. president Dean Edwards in a release.
Located in Spartanburg County for more than two decades, Trimite Powders manufactures powder coatings for refrigeration, cash machines, lighting, industrial motors, home furniture and other purposes. Trimite Ltd. was founded in 1945 in the United Kingdom and expanded to Spartanburg in 1991.
