Southwire Expands Wire & Cable Capacity

Southwire is expanding building wire and feeder MC cable manufacturing capacity by renovating an existing 650,000-square-foot facility on 111 acres in Carrollton, Ga.

This additional facility will enable Southwire to dramatically increase capacity, while streamlining operations to support residential and commercial construction growth to meet future customer demand for building wire and feeder MC cable products. Production has already begun at the new plant and additional equipment will be added over the coming months, making it one of the most efficient and up-to-date wire and cable manufacturing facilities in operation today. Once complete, Southwire will produce several key product lines using updated equipment and manufacturing techniques.

"This new facility delivers a number of manufacturing benefits and the property allows for further expansion as needed," said Phil Tuggle, SVP building wire, Southwire. "Copper wire will continue to be our largest building wire category, but the market is continually demanding value engineered alternatives to copper. So not only will we get increased capacity, but we'll do it with an extremely efficient footprint with room for future growth."

As contractors search for ways to improve safety, increase productivity and reduce costs on the job site, they will look for more cost effective material options and greater overall value from product solutions that help them add to their bottom line.

"Southwire focuses on innovation and developing solutions to help electrical contractors grow their businesses and meet the needs of their customers," Tuggle said. "Investing in this added capacity right here in our hometown is another example of how Southwire is providing increased customer value, growing its own business, while contributing jobs to the United States economy. We are returning a shuttered facility to productive use and improving our manufacturing capability in the process."
