PELL CITY – Allied Mineral Products broke ground Wednesday on an $11 million expansion in Pell City.
“This expansion is part of our strategic growth,” said Allied Mineral Products President Paul Jamison. “This increases our manufacturing presence in Alabama.”
Allied Mineral Products purchased Riverside Refractories in Pell City in late September 2017, and is retaining 30 jobs from its facility in Anniston with this expansion.
“This is another phase in the Allied Mineral Products story, and it’s a big one,” said William Carmean, corporate vice president of affiliated operation. “We appreciate everyone coming out here today.”
Allied Mineral Products, Inc., which is based in Columbus, is a leading global manufacturer of monolithic refractories and precast, pre-fired refractory shapes with 12 manufacturing facilities in eight countries, three precast shapes facilities and two research and technology centers.
Jamison said Allied likes to locate close to its customer base.
