The move strengthens our commitment to meet or exceed our customer's requirements."

Job opportunities will benefit the community

It is anticipated that doubling the manufacturing capacity, Converting Technology will create a number of good jobs that will benefit the Milwaukee community. New employees will join a team of experienced personnel who will work at the new location. The expanded facility is in close proximity to the original plant in Menomonee Falls, WI adding little to the commute. Converting Technology management believes a number of jobs will be created as the enterprise plans for growth. The company anticipates new jobs in the following areas: Customer Service, Sales, Engineering, and Manufacturing.

Larger facility impacts key customer needs

Converting Technology's growth is attributed to quick turnaround times, high quality products and strong customer support.
