Safeplast NA Company locating new facility in Pickens County
August 15, 2017PICKENS COUNTY, SC – Safeplast NA Company, a manufacturer and provider of hose protectors and hose binding products, is launching a new facility in Pickens County. The $4.3 million investment is projected to create 30 new jobs.
Affiliated with Safeplast Finland, Safeplast NA began manufacturing and distributing its signature Safeplast Spirals in 2007. Designed to protect hydraulic hoses from abrasion that can lead to premature equipment failure, the company’s state-of-the-art products are generated through a unique manufacturing process with technology only available in two places worldwide – Finland and this new facility in Pickens County, S.C.
Located in Pickens County Commerce Park, Safeplast will be constructing a new 30,000-square-foot facility that will function as the company’s North American headquarters.
“South Carolina is known for its remarkable manufacturing ability. Today’s announcement by Safeplast NA Company is further proof that this reputation is well-earned, as yet another tremendous company has chosen to call our state home,” said Secretary of Commerce Bobby Hitt.
Hiring for the new positions should begin in the first quarter of 2018, and interested applicants should contact [email protected] for more information.
