Mueller Water Products, Inc. said its U.S. Pipe and Foundry division intends to close its ductile iron pipe manufacturing operations in Burlington, N.J. by this coming February. The facility will continue to be used as a full-service distribution center for customers.
The company expects to shift production operations to other U.S. Pipe facilities.
"To be globally competitive in our ductile iron pipe business, we must constantly strive to be the low-cost producer," said Gregory E. Hyland, president, chairman and CEO. "We are committed to taking the steps necessary to protect our leadership position in the market and to build the foundation necessary for future growth."
