Environmental StoneWorks is building a new 32,222 Sq. Ft. manufacturing facility in Washington County that will create 124 new jobs and lead to $2 million in capital investment. The new facility is located in the Fort Peirce Industrial Park and is slated to open this summer. Gaylen Hunt, General Manager of the St. George facility, said, “The expansion of their manufacturing facility will lead to over $40 million in new state wages and $2.5 million in new state tax revenues.” After a regional site search, Hunt is thankful Environmental StoneWorks was able to find a facility in St. George that fit their requirements so they could keep their manufacturing operations in Southern Utah.
The new facility is a manufactured stone veneer plant that will provide the company capacity to service current markets throughout the Western US, while also allowing opportunities for growth and increased market penetration moving forward. This expansion will allow Environmental StoneWorks to meet the needs of customers now and in the future.
“With the continued improvement of the housing market and our increased presence in the Southwest markets, a new, larger facility in St. George, Utah, provides us a central location to service our current and future West Coast customers more efficiently,” said Environmental StoneWorks’ President and CEO Charles Stein. “St. George has great access to the surrounding markets and the local community provides a healthy environment for our current and future employees.”
Over the past three decades, Environmental StoneWorks has consistently expanded its turnkey capacity to offer a complete range of stone and brick veneer products and installation services to the nation’s leading builders. Environmental Stoneworks delivers a competitive product and a “one stop solution” for customers by packaging manufacturing and installation together as a service for builders and property owners.
Environmental StoneWorks was assisted by Jason Griffith, CCIM with NAI Utah South, in the leasing of their new facility.
