SINC Thermal Expands O’Fallon, Missouri, Production Operations

07/24/2024
SINC Thermal, a manufacturer of industrial melting furnaces and ovens, plans to expand operations in O’Fallon, Missouri. The $4 million project is expected to create 25 jobs.

The investment will include the relocation of the company’s sales, administrative, and production to a new 15,000-sqaure-foot facility.

“We’ve seen explosive growth over the past few years, which initiated an extensive search for a new location,” said Joe Slattery, President and COO of SINC Thermal. “Our new, consolidated facility in O’Fallon will allow us to successfully address the current needs of our customers and position us for future growth. We looked at several locations in the Greater St. Louis region and it was very clear from the start that Mayor Bill Hennessey and the Select O’Fallon Team were serious about getting businesses like ours into their community, and making sure we had what we needed to hit the ground running.”

To support the project SINC Thermal 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.

“DED is proud to support SINC Thermal’s exciting expansion in the St. Louis region,” noted Michelle Hataway, Director of the Department of Economic Development. “Much like this success story in O’Fallon, communities all across the state are experiencing growth thanks to the collaborative efforts of our partners who are working hard to help create new opportunities for Missourians to prosper.”

SINC Thermal is a manufacturer of industrial furnaces and equipment for the foundry, die casting and metal forming industries. The company is the exclusive U.S. manufacturer of Nippon Freedom and Jet Melter aluminum melting furnaces.

“SINC Thermal recognizes the incredible value of the St. Louis metro,” added Maggie Kost, Chief Business Attraction Officer of Greater St. Louis, Inc. “The company is a vital part of our growing manufacturing sector, thriving because of our position at the center of our country, our vibrant workforce, and our multimodal infrastructure. We congratulate the company on their expansion and future growth trajectory.”

“It was a pleasure to work with SINC Thermal over the past year during the selection process for its new, expanded manufacturing location,” said Scott J. Drachnik, President and CEO of Economic Development Council of St. Charles Council. “We look forward to watching this rapidly growing company thrive in St. Charles County’s dynamic manufacturing ecosystem.”
