Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania-based rail and construction products manufacturer L.B. Foster Company announced Friday that it plans to relocate its water system tubular products facility from Houston, Texas to a new manufacturing facility in Magnolia, Texas. The new plant will use new threading and conveyance equipment to increase production capacity and improve delivery scheduling.
According to a press release from the company, the Magnolia location will expand L.B. Foster's ability to meet demand from end-use tubular markets such as agricultural, municipal and industrial water well needs. The new threaded products plant is also adjacent to L.B. Foster joint venture operation, LB Pipe & Coupling Products, LLC.
