Mill Steel Co., a Grand Rapids, Michigan-based distributor of flat-rolled carbon steel, announced today that it has decided to move its Building/Painted Products Midwest operations from its Jeffersonville, Indiana plant to its recently acquired service center in Anderson, Indiana. Mill Steel expects to complete the move of the Midwest Building/Painted Products division by the end of April 2016.
This relocation is in concert with Mill Steel's previously announced consolidation of its Steel Structural Products (Louisville) steel framing and accessory operations to its Ports of Indiana – Jeffersonville footprint.
“The additional move of the Building/Painted Products Midwest operations will greatly enhance distribution, processing, and logistics capabilities for painted metal roll-forming customers in the Mid-South and Midwest markets,” the company said in a statement. “The move will also significantly enhance the production capabilities of its Jeffersonville plant serving Mill Steel's growing base of automotive, construction, appliance, transportation and tubing customers.”
Mill Steel expects to reorganize the 220,000-square-foot Anderson steel service center plant's capabilities creating up to 100,000-square-feet of processing and distribution space for its painted products division. This reorganization will in no way eliminate any of the plant's current slitting, cut to length, or level capabilities, which will be provided by the location's remaining 120,000-square-feet.
Mill Steel Chairman and CEO, David S. Samrick said the recent moves of the Steel Structural Products (Louisville) division along with the consolidation of Mill Steel's Building/Painted Products to its Anderson, Indiana location is a win, win, and win for the Company. The efficiencies created as a result of these moves are a game changer for all three business segments (Jeffersonville service center, Steel Structural Products, and Building/Painted Products division) operating under the Mill Steel Co. umbrella.
