Tessy Plastics has announced the expansion of cleanrooms in two of its manufacturing facilities in upstate New York.
The expansion will take place in two plants; the corporate headquarters located in Skaneateles, New York and the other in the facility in Elbridge, New York as a result of the new business the organisation has been awarded for medical products.
Originally, Tessy Plastics purchased the corporate headquarters office in Skaneateles in 2015. The company decided to expand the cleanroom in Skaneateles by rearranging the layout of the building to add around 15,000 square feet to the cleanroom.
Joe Raffa, Tessy Plastic's vice president and general manager commented: “It has been the plan all along to utilise the entire area. We recently have been awarded new production lines that will utilise about 10% of the newly constructed cleanroom space. After the room is completed, it will be used to produce surgical components for medical devices and for additional programs in the future.” This renovation will result in approximately 36,000 square feet of cleanroom space in the corporate headquarters building in Skaneateles.
By the end of 2019, Tessy Plastics will have three plants that are used for medical business. Roland Beck, Tessy Plastics president states: “We are excited to see the buildings evolve as we take on new customers and new projects. We look forward to what the future brings.”
