Newly renovated building will add 166,000 sq.
ft. of expansion space to accommodate Proto Labs’ rapidly growing
custom parts making business
Proto Labs, Inc. (NYSE: PRLB), a leading online and
technology-enabled quick-turn manufacturer, has announced today
that it has completed renovation of the Plymouth Industrial
Building at 2600 Niagara Lane, Plymouth, MN, and will begin
operations at this location effective Monday April 28.
This new building will initially house 175 employees, split
evenly between office and manufacturing workers. Proto Labs plans
to eventually expand that number to 300 employees by May, 2017. The
new Plymouth location increases the Proto Labs US manufacturing
facilities capacity to support up to 425 CNC machines and 180
injection-molding presses.
Upon completion, Proto Labs will have invested a total of $19
million to purchase the property and renovate the building. During
renovation, care was taken to reduce the environmental impact of
the project. All lighting in the building was replaced with energy
efficient LED lighting. Much of the scrap from demolition was sold
or recycled. The HVAC and mechanical systems have been designed to
maximize efficiency. An innovative rain-screen system was used to
repair the exterior of the building and reduce on-going
maintenance.
“We’re pleased to be moving into our new Plymouth building,
which will be our fifth building in the Twin Cities area,” said
President and CEO Vicki Holt. “The additional location will help us
meet the high-demand for our quick-turn, custom parts
business.”
