Onspot factory expands again

Onspot of North America has expanded its existing 30,000-sq.-ft. factory in North Vernon, Ind., by adding an adjacent 3-acre parcel with an existing 7,400-sq.-ft. building, which the company said it will use as a storage warehouse for its automatic tire chain systems.

Onspot of North America recently announced the expansion of its factory in North Vernon, Ind.

According to Onspot, it had been planning to add to its existing 30,000-sq.-ft. facility when the building and property next door became available. The company chose to purchase the 3-acre parcel with its 7,400-sq.-ft. building. This will become Onspot’s storage warehouse, the tire chain supplier said. The additional space frees up the room required to add 2 more CNC machines that assist in the production of Onspot’s automatic tire chain systems.

Onspot said it has been supplying automatic tire chain systems for the past 24 years to over 200 OEMs as a factory-installed option and over 1,400 dealers throughout North America. For more information, call 800-766-7768.
