NUPI Americas Expands Early Branch, South Carolina, Production Operations
12/18/2024
The investment will double the size of the company’s existing facility and include additional tooling and an expanded production area. Operations are scheduled to begin in 2028.
“We are now in the third phase of our production expansion in Hampton County, South Carolina. The journey began in 2016 when we acquired the Hampton County spec building, initially focusing on importing goods from Italy,” said NUPI Americas President and CEO Marco Genoni. “In 2020, our first expansion doubled the facility’s size and allowed us to begin manufacturing pipes domestically. This third phase adds 50,000 square feet of building space and represents a capital investment of over $7 million. It will enable us to produce fittings in the U.S., creating 30 new jobs and reducing reliance on imported goods.”
To support the project the Coordinating Council for Economic Development approved job development credits.
“Congratulations to NUPI Americas on expanding operations in Hampton County to increase production and meet growing demand for its products. We are grateful for NUPI’s commitment to creating opportunities for South Carolinians and look forward to the company’s continued growth in our state,” noted Secretary of Commerce Harry M. Lightsey III.
Part of Nupi Industrie Italiane S.p.A., NUPI specializes in the manufacturing, sales, and marketing of NIRON, ELOFIT, and SMARTFLEX branded multilayer plastic pipes and associated fittings for hot water, cold water and gasoline.
“We look forward to working with NUPI as they once again expand their operations in the Southern Carolina region of our state. NUPI’s growing operations in Hampton County are a testament to the strength of our workforce and our business climate, and we thank them for their commitment to future growth, SouthernCarolina Alliance Chairman Marty Sauls added.
