Hardide Coatings, provider of advanced surface coating technology, has announced investment in a new Virginia manufacturing plant worth circa US$7M (£4.5M). The investment will see Hardide Coatings expand provision of its range of specialist nanostructured coatings throughout North America.
The company has signed a lease on a 26,000ft2 facility in Martinsville, Henry County, which will service existing and new customers in the oil and gas, aerospace, flow control and advanced engineering markets. The facility is expected to be operational in Q4, 2015 and to create up to 29 jobs in the first three years. The investment follows Hardide’s recent increase in capacity at its UK facility in Bicester.
