Harrington Industrial Plastics, the nation’s largest distributor of industrial piping products for corrosive and high-purity applications, announced plans to invest more than 2.4 million to establish a distribution center in New Haven that will serve its operations across the Great Lakes region and eventually add 20 jobs.
The company is retrofitting an existing building at 2742 Wayne Haven St. in New Haven into a 68,000-square-foot distribution center, allowing the company to increase its national reach and enhance its support to its customer base in the region.
David Burnett, director of supply chain at Harrington said, “As we’ve started work here, the city of New Haven has been a great partner for us in facilitating a smooth and efficient startup. We’re tremendously excited about the opportunity to continue our growth in the region; this facility will increase our ability to provide products to our customer base and to house additional resources for our surrounding branches.”
