Scrap recycling and auto salvage company Brookfield Resource Management says it has completed the first phase of a $3.8 million expansion of its operations center at its Elmsford, N.Y., headquarters.
The company says the expansion includes a 35,000-square-foot facility that will allow the company to introduce enhanced and more efficient recycling operations, including moving most of its processing operations indoor.
The company expects the operations center expansion to be complete by next year.
In a release announcing the completion of phase one of the project, Tom Malone, Brookfield’s president, says, “This is a substantial investment for our company and will improve the way we operate our business. The new building will allow us to increase our capacity and ability to meet the rising demand for recycling services. The new operations center plays a critical role as Brookfield Resources, expands and will be a hub for all of our operations in the New York and Chicago area,” Malone adds.
In addition to its headquarters location, Brookfield also has facilities in Chicago and the Bronx.
