Carlisle Construction Materials Opens New Manufacturing Facility in Southern Missouri
Carlisle Construction Materials LLC (CCM) has officially launched its newest site in Sikeston, Missouri.
Local, regional, and state dignitaries joined executives from the manufacturing company in a ribbon-cutting ceremony at the site earlier today.
“We’re proud that Carlisle Construction Materials chose to expand its business here in Missouri,” said Governor Mike Parson.
“This investment is a testament to our state’s talented workforce, business-friendly environment, and great quality of life that have made Missouri an ideal location for leading manufacturing companies like Carlisle. We look forward to seeing how this facility and the job opportunities it creates will make southeast Missouri an even stronger place to live and work.”
Carlisle Construction Materials spent more than $100 million on the new roughly 500,000-square-foot manufacturing and production complex.
“We at Carlisle are grateful for the warm welcome we have received from the State of Missouri and the people of Sikeston,” said Steve Schwar, President of Carlisle Construction Materials.
“This brand-new plant, which will create 100 jobs in the Sikeston region, is Carlisle’s second location in Missouri. Carlisle is committed to success and growth here in Sikeston, which is an ideal location to serve our strategic and growing markets.”
Schwar continued, “As a company, Carlisle is very focused on being a good steward of the environment. That’s why this plant, which produces energy-efficient insulation products, was built with the goal of achieving LEED Platinum status, a globally recognized symbol of superior sustainability achievement.”
The manufacturing company chose Missouri for this new polyiso facility because of its central location, personnel, and low business costs.
“Carlisle Construction Materials is a perfect fit for Sikeston,” said Mayor Greg Turnbow.
“Sikeston has hard-working residents with an unmatched work ethic, which is critical for Carlisle as they open this new facility. Our community is grateful for their investment here, and we are committed to their long-term success in Sikeston.”
“We are thrilled to welcome this leading manufacturer to our region,” said Marcie Lawson, President and CEO of the Sikeston Area Economic Development Corporation.
“Carlisle Construction Materials has an impeccable reputation, and they have already made a positive impact on our community. We are excited to watch them grow in our area.”
CCM is a diversified manufacturer and supplier of premium building goods and related technology for the commercial and residential construction markets and a national leader in the roofing business.
With over fifty facilities globally, the new Sikeston factory is the company’s second in Missouri.
“Companies continue to expand into Missouri because they can count on our central location and strong workforce to help their businesses grow and thrive for years to come,” said Subash Alias, CEO of Missouri Partnership.
“We’re excited to see Carlisle Construction Materials open its second location in our state, and we look forward to continuing our work together.”
CCM’s new facility in Sikeston was designed and built to enhance energy efficiency and reduce carbon emissions, demonstrating Carlisle’s commitment to sustainability.
The company is now working to obtain LEED Platinum certification.
