Water treatment company Culligan International has opened a new, expanded facility in Libertyville, Illinois, USA.
The expansion features 217,000 square feet of prime manufacturing, assembly, warehousing and office space. Approximately 75,000 square feet is dedicated to manufacturing - triple the capacity of Culligan's previous facility.
The Libertyville facility also features two full bays of assembly floor space for large jobs, with lifting capacity of 50,000 lbs (two 25,000 lb cranes) plus a second crane area with 10,000 lbs of lifting capacity. This floor provides the space needed to execute large, complex capital projects that include Culligan's portfolio of technologies used in industrial markets such as oil and gas, food and beverage, and energy and power. In addition, Culligan says that the expanded space enables it to assemble as many as five mobile water treatment containers at one time. The Libertyville facility also provides additional office space, enabling Culligan to bring together design and application engineers and project managers in one location.
