Nordfab’s 55,000-square-foot production and warehouse addition to its Thomasville, NC facility is now completed.
Construction has now been finished on a $5.5 million expansion of Nordfab Ducting’s facility in North Carolina, providing faster service of its most commonly ordered products from what is North America’s largest manufacturer of clamp-together ductwork for dust collection.
Part of its Nordfab Now initiative, the 55,000 square-foot addition provides added space for production and warehousing, said company president Erik Olshall. “This helps us to launch our Nordfab Now® program, which when fully implemented, will allow next-day shipment of standard ductwork in dust collection systems ordered using our online ordering portal or designed using our award-winning installation design software, Quick-Fit Visual.”
The Quick-Fit Visual software utilizes simple line drawing tools within the application to create the intended duct path. Users can then hit the “AutoDuct” button to convert the path to a 3D image with automatic duct sizing and automatic static pressure loss calculations.
The sustainable building project includes a rooftop solar installation which will produce an estimated 1,417 Megawatt hours of electricity per year. The installation is one of the top five largest rooftop solar installations in the North Carolina Triad region, the company said.
