Architectural metal panel manufacturer Morin has established operations in Little Rock, Arkansas. The approximately $15 million project is expedited to create 25 jobs.

"The opening of our Little Rock facility marks a pivotal moment for Morin and the architectural metal industry,” said Ilhan Eser, Morin President. “This plant is more than a building; it is the embodiment of our forward-thinking vision. By strategically positioning the most advanced roll-forming technology in the heart of the country, we are not only enhancing our service to customers but also setting a new benchmark for sustainable manufacturing. We are proud to invest in this community, create skilled jobs and build a future in Arkansas that is innovative, efficient and environmentally responsible."

Morin Corp., a member of the Kingspan Group, is a manufacturer of architectural metal wall and roof systems that are used in commercial and industrial buildings.

“Morin is making a major investment in Little Rock, Arkansas with its new facility, creating 25 new jobs and building on a growing metals industry in the region,” noted Clint O’Neal, Executive Director of the Arkansas Economic Development Commission. “By locating in Little Rock, Arkansas, Morin has chosen a business-friendly community and state that have the resources and public policy that will help the company succeed in the long-term. Congratulations to our partners in Little Rock and Pulaski County on another economic development win.”

“At the core of our economic development strategy is taking care of companies that have already invested in the metro Little Rock region, while also leveraging those relationships to recruit complementary businesses,” added Jay Chesshir, President and CEO of the Little Rock Regional Chamber. “We are thrilled to welcome another brand within the Kingspan Group to Little Rock and are grateful for the opportunities this will create for 25 families in our region.”
