Addition adds 15,000 square feet to Northstar Industrial Park facility
TIFFIN, OHIO – December 5, 2016 – A local investor group has announced that they are expanding their 60,000-square-foot industrial facility located at 145 Heritage Drive in the Northstar Industrial Park.
The facility was constructed in 1994 and has been leased to Owens Corning – a leading producer of insulation, roofing, and fiberglass composites – since 1995. The current expansion is underway and is expected to be finished by February 1, 2017.
The Tiffin facility employs about 85 people and produces insulation products for appliance manufacturers.
In order to support the 15,000-square-foot expansion, a 15-year, 100-percent Community Reinvestment Area tax exemption is being provided, and all existing property owners in the industrial park as well as representatives of the City of Tiffin approved the project.
Tiffin Mayor Aaron Montz was pleased with the announcement. “Manufacturing is the number one employer in the Tiffin area, and further investment like this continues to strengthen it,” he said. “We are pleased to see our economic development momentum continue.”
