Avery Dennison - Coating and Slitting (Greenfield, IN)
Manufacturing facility in Greenfield, Indiana
In Greenfield, Indiana, Avery Dennison embarked on an ambitious project to establish a new 275,000 square foot coating and slitting operation, a venture that underscored their commitment to advancing manufacturing capabilities and efficiency. Recognizing the need for a partner with a proven track record in delivering comprehensive design-build solutions, Avery Dennison selected Force Construction Company, Inc. for this significant undertaking. With a project value exceeding $36,000,000, our team was entrusted with the full spectrum of site, facility, and process utility design and construction, marking a significant milestone in our portfolio of manufacturing and industrial projects.
The complexity of this project was heightened by the necessity for meticulous coordination with international equipment providers, integration of existing owner equipment, and alignment with Avery Dennison’s user group requirements. This demanded not only a deep understanding of the technical aspects of the construction and installation processes but also a robust framework for communication and collaboration across continents and disciplines. Our approach was characterized by precision planning and execution, ensuring that every component of the facility was designed and constructed to meet the high standards set by Avery Dennison and the specific needs of their operation.
This new facility represents more than just an expansion of Avery Dennison's physical footprint; it stands as a testament to Force Construction's ability to navigate the complexities of modern industrial construction. By leveraging our expertise in design-build projects, we delivered a state-of-the-art operation that enhances Avery Dennison's coating and slitting capabilities, setting a new benchmark for manufacturing excellence. The successful completion of this project not only solidifies our reputation as a leader in the construction industry but also contributes to the economic growth and technological advancement of Greenfield, Indiana, and beyond.
