Taiwan-based Xxentria Technology, a manufacturer of metal composite material, plans to establish its first U.S. metal composite production operation in Mt. Pleasant, Tennessee. The $45 million project is expected to create 85 jobs in Maury County.

The new facility, located at the Cherry Glen Industrial Park, will serve the automotive industry with the composite panels used to manufacture truck and trailer bodies.

“The State of Tennessee has a pro-business climate and is aggressively attracting international manufacturing companies like ours. Establishing a manufacturing operation in Tennessee will allow us to better collaborate and serve our valued customers throughout North America while demonstrating that Taiwanese innovation has a home in the southeastern U.S.,” Howard Cheng, CEO, Xxentria Technology Materials Co., Ltd. explained.

Xxentria Technology Materials Co.,Ltd is principally engaged in the manufacture and sales of composite plates and materials. The company's main products include composite panels and others.

I look forward to seeing the success that follows today’s announcement in Mt. Pleasant,” TNECD Commissioner Stuart C. McWhorter noted.

“TVA and Mt. Pleasant Power System congratulate Xxentria on its decision to establish operations in Maury County.
