RMC Mechanical Relocates To Expanded Plant in Wood Dale, Illinois

10/01/2018
RMC Mechanical an HVAC and mechanical services company, is moving its operations 23.4 miles northwest of Chicago to Wood Dale, Illinois.

The building has been converted from a vacant warehouse to a mixed warehouse-office space. RMC now has more room for its 20-person office staff as well as storage and shop space for its 50 technicians.

Previously, RMC, a Reedy Industries portfolio company, occupied a building on James Street in Bensenville, just five miles from their new location. According to company officials, the move comes at a time of growth and expansion for RMC, an HVAC and mechanical services company that primarily works in large manufacturing and industrial plants as well as schools, hospitals, and government facilities.

"It's a terrific time within the company," says Jack Deichl, President of Reedy Industries' mechanical services companies, at RMC's first meeting in the newly renovated 19,000 square foot facility. "We've added a lot of people; we're doubling our space. I'm excited for these guys to have a chance to see this space."

"We first did a walk-through on Thanksgiving of last year," says Zack Glover, General Manager of RMC. "This was what we were looking for." Zack Glovertook over the General Manager role in November 2017, but he was no stranger to the organization. Zack started working for one of RMC's sister companies back in 1998. Zack worked his way from a service technician to overseeing RMC. "This is a fresh start for our office," continues Zack. "It's a fresh start for our guys in the field. And a year from now, we'll be better than ever."

RMC Mechanical was founded as Refrigeration & Maintenance Company in 1930 by Thomas J. Reedy. Over the last 88 years, the business has restructured with Reedy Industries being the parent company. RMC and a group of other HVAC and mechanical companies constitute the company's primary business.

Reedy Industries currently operates out of Glenview, Illinois and oversees companies in Illinois, Wisconsin, Indiana, Ohio, and Missouri. CEO Bill Reedy is the third generation of the Reedy family to helm the organization.

"RMC's move is one of many expansions for our company this year," says Bill Reedy. "We've seen positive growth over the last several years, and it's all thanks to the quality men and women who work here. We have the best service technicians anyone could hope for, and they deserve the credit."
