Broadview, Illinois-based Belden Universal, a manufacturer of custom universal joints and highly specialized mechanical power transmission products, announced today its plans to move into a new, state-of-the-art production facility.
Construction of the new, 40,000 sq ft factory in Hillside, Illinois will be in close proximity to Belden’s current headquarters in Broadview. Relocation will proceed in staged phases this fall and expected to conclude by late 2017.
In a press release, the company said the expansion was fueled by Belden’s steady growth over the last two decades, necessitating larger space for employees and for more streamlined production flow due to ongoing investments in equipment.
