A large expansion is underway for a Madison manufacturer. Global Polymer recently broke ground on an addition to their current facility in the Lakeview Industrial Park, which will allow them to meet the growing needs of their customers.

Global Polymer is investing more than ten-million dollars into their Madison plant, which will increase their floor space by over 32-thousand square feet.

Global Polymer specializes in products made from Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene, or UHMW-PE.

Global Polymer has been in business nearly 30 years, but first began operating in Madison in 2014, after relocating from Arlington.

The addition will be completed by November of 2023, but there will be three phases of new equipment. The final phase will be completed in December of 2025.

They are looking to add around 120 employees with the expansion.
