The expansion will allow the company to double production capacity.
TimberPro recently completed an $8 million expansion project that added nearly 49,000 ft2 (4,500 m2) to its facility in Shawano, Wisconsin, U.S. The expansion will allow the company to double production capacity, enabling it to meet growing market demand for its equipment and attachments.
To celebrate the project’s completion, TimberPro hosted a public open house on Friday, August 25, for employees, their families and members of the Shawano community. TimberPro was founded by Pat Crawford in 2002. The Crawfords have been involved in the forestry business in Wisconsin for more than 75 years, and in recognition of their contributions, the new expansion was dedicated to the family.
According to the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources, the forest products industry provides more than 61,000 full- and part-time jobs in Wisconsin and has a total industry output of $24.4 billion. To help support regional jobs and the regional supply chain, TimberPro sources materials from many companies in northern Wisconsin. With its expanded operation, TimberPro currently has several new job openings for those seeking career opportunities in the rewarding equipment manufacturing industry.
