Caster Concepts will expand its headquarters to meet demand

Caster Concepts has announced a 16,000 sqft. (1,500 sqm) USD2 million expansion at its headquarters in Central Michigan.

The expansion will accommodate a larger engineering department, additional floor space for product development and testing, and room for recent business acquisitions. 

Caster Concepts also plans additional truck docks for increased orders and deliveries, more office space, and a larger manufacturing work area and employee facilities.

"We’re betting on future growth," says Caster Concepts president Bill Dobbins. "Unlike most companies, we function better with lots of space. We create unique solutions for customers, and that requires more room for testing. We want to be prepared for the next great innovation."

The expansion comes on the heels of a robust 2022 for the Albion-based manufacturer. 

“Over many years and significant investments, Caster Concepts has developed and refined a manufacturing process,” Dobbins adds. “By combining on-time delivery, short lead times and getting the customer what they want, when they want it, Caster Concepts creates value for all stakeholders.”

Caster Concepts designs and builds industrial heavy-duty casters and wheels for virtually any application.
