Construction on the expansion will get underway soon after the Fourth of July holiday, said membrane division General Manager Erin Sorensen. The new addition is expected to come on line by the end of 2025, Sorensen said.

The general contractor is St. Louis-based PARIC.

The new production at the site is expected to add 30 jobs to the 170 employees who already work at the facility, the company said in a news release. Air Products invested $10 million last year in an expansion that upgraded equipment in its existing space, Sorensen said.
