NAPPANEE, Ind. (WOWO): A custom aluminum trailer manufacturer is expanding its operations in Indiana and creating up to 60 new high-wage jobs.

The Indiana Economic Development Corporation says InTech Trailers will invest $1.67-million to expand operations at its campus on West Market Street in Nappanee by building a new 42,000 square-foot facility, with construction expected to start this month. The expansion will allow the company to install a full production line to make motorsports trailers.

“Indiana is the perfect place to attract top talent for our business,” said Adam Maxwell, chief executive officer of inTech Trailers. “Here in Nappanee, we’re proud to have a strong team of skilled engineers, craftsmen and professionals helping us build custom trailers that are sold around the world. And with Indiana’s world-class business climate, we couldn’t have found a better place to grow and thrive.”

The company also recently completed a renovation of an 8,000-square-foot production facility, which was formerly used for cold storage.

InTech plans to begin hiring for the new positions in January, with new positions expected to pay on average nearly 40% more than the state’s average wage.
