HUESKER Inc. celebrated another milestone of growth on December 13, 2016. The inauguration of their expanding operations in Cleveland County and the city of Shelby, through the opening of an $8.5 million state-of-the-art facility boasting 150,000 square feet, will only enhance the manufacturing of their highly engineered geosynthetics product line and ability to better serve the industry and their customers. This is the second milestone celebration for HUSKER Inc. in 2016 as it comes right at the end of their 25th anniversary in the United States.

Through the expansion HUESKER will manufacture core products locally for the North American market according to highest quality standards and in accordance to the North American guidelines.

The 155 year old German based company, HUESKER Group, CEO Dr. F.- Hans Grandin flew in from Germany to celebrate this milestone and further expounded on the importance of making a strong, lasting connection in the United States, the community, the industry and with their customers is at the core of this vision. “It took some vision to build this state-of-the-art and high-performance production plant,” said Dr. F.- Hans Grandin, CEO of HUESKER Group.

The strong, lasting connection mentioned by Grandin and HUESKER, Inc. CEO Sven Schröer was only reinforced and proven by the board chair of the Cleveland County Economic Development Partnership. “We thank you for believing in our community and our community certainly believes in you. We wish you great success with your products and your new innovations that we know will come in the future as a result of this expansion,” said Dr. Steve Thornburg.

“We believe this expansion is adding value to our industry — making the products in the US for the North American market will give our customers even more confident that geosynthetics are the most viable option for their applications,” said Sven Schröer, CEO of HUESKER, Inc.

“When we decided for such a substantial investment in times of worldwide economic and political instability, we were not sure, if this decision is foolish or courageous. I am confident that looking back in ten years, we will say, ‘Yes, we have been very courageous and it paid back.’ In this spirit, I wish good luck to our US based team and very much look forward to the great future of this location and HUESKER Inc.” added Grandin.
