King Technology Establishes St Peters, Missouri, Operations

09/30/2026
Water care and sanitization systems manufacturer King Technology has established operations in St. Peters, Missouri. The at least $17 million project is expected to create 40 jobs.

The company’s new 208,000-square-foot facility, located in the Lakeside Logistics Center, will centralize manufacturing, warehousing and distribution operations and support hundreds of distributors and dealers across the U.S.

“Our new facility in St. Charles County is a milestone for our company’s long-term growth strategy,” said King Technology President and CEO Michael Noer. “The region’s commitment to growing businesses and its strong sense of faith, family and community reflect the same values behind King Technology’s purpose to ‘Enrich Lives Daily.’”

To support the project King Technologies will benefit from the Missouri Works Program, a tool that helps companies expand and retain workers by providing access to capital through withholdings or tax credits for job creation, subject to verification of program requirements. The company may receive assistance from Missouri One Start, a division of the Department of Economic Development. Missouri One Start assists eligible businesses with their recruitment and training needs.

“For nearly half a century, this third-generation, family-owned company has built a legacy of innovation, growth, and commitment to its customers,” noted Missouri Department of Economic Development Director Michelle Hataway. “We’re proud King Technology has chosen Missouri for this significant investment and look forward to supporting its continued success as it creates new opportunities for Missourians to prosper in the St. Louis region.”

King Technology worked with Ameren, the City of St. Peters, the Economic Development Council of St. Charles County, Greater St. Louis, Inc., the Missouri Department of Economic Development, Missouri Partnership and Spire on the project.

“King Technology’s investment in St. Peters reflects what companies continue to find across Missouri: a strategic location, strong infrastructure, and a business climate that supports long-term growth,” added Missouri Partnership CEO Subash Alias. “This project strengthens Missouri’s advanced manufacturing footprint, creates new opportunities for Missourians, and reinforces the state’s position as a premier destination for companies serving customers across the nation.”

King Technology is a manufacturer of water treatment and maintenance products for swimming pools, hot tubs, and swim spas.

“King Technology’s decision to choose St. Peters for their new distribution center reflects our region’s clear strengths and our commitment to bringing new employers and new jobs to our region,” said Greater St. Louis, Inc. Managing Partner Ron Kitchens. “Greater St. Louis, Inc. was proud to support King Technology’s first-ever expansion, and we look forward to watching them grow and thrive in St. Peters.”

“King Technology’s expansion into St. Peters reflects the continued strength of St. Charles County as a place where manufacturers can grow, invest, and thrive,” noted Economic Development Council of St. Charles County President and CEO Scott Drachnik. “We are grateful for the trust they have shown in our community and look forward to their continued success.”
