Nova Steel to Open Tube Manufacturing Plant in Kentucky
Written by Sandy Williams
Canadian steel processor Nova Steel plans to open a new tube manufacturing plant in Bowling Green, Ky. The $70 million project was announced Thursday and includes an initial investment of more than $20 million for the acquisition of a 108,000-square-foot building in the Kentucky Transpark and the purchase and installation of equipment. The plant will bring 50 new jobs to the region.
Two future expansions, planned within the next five years, will grow the operation to 325,000 square feet and more than double the number of jobs to 110. The Nova Steel facility will include roll forming, tube lasers, tube bending and fabrication, robotics, and a steel service center serving automotive suppliers within the south central region of the United States.
