Wastequip Builds New Facility

Wastequip Indiana, Winamac, Ind., the primary manufacturing location of Galbreath brand products, recently broke ground on a new paint line facility that is intended to streamline the painting process for the company’s mobile technical products, including Galbreath brand hook hoists, cable hoists and trailers.

The planned 8,300-square-foot building will house state-of-the-art paint finishing technology including an ultra downdraft dry filter paint spray booth. According to a press release from Wastequip, “The paint booth will provide a durable, baked-on finish that will improve the quality of the paint job.”

The new facility will also include an air recycling unit that will re-use heated air, reducing energy costs.

“Streamlining the painting process and reducing energy consumption will allow the continued competitive pricing of Galbreath brand equipment,” according to Wastequip, in addition to providing a safer, healthier workplace and a cleaner environment.

Wastequip Indiana is part of the Wastequip Midwest Group. Wastequip Inc. is a leading manufacturer of waste handling, recycling and material handling equipment with 38 locations throughout North America.
