Wabash National Corp WNC expands the manufacturing capacity of EcoNex Technology to address customer demand and equipment challenges that refrigerated carriers have faced for years.
Wabash will invest an additional $20 million in the expansion at its 53-acre site in Little Falls, Minnesota, and create more than 200 new jobs by the end of 2023.
EcoNex is Wabash's proprietary, next-generation molded structural composite that utilizes environmentally conscious materials to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and dependency on non-renewable energy.
Wabash claims that EcoNex significantly reduces corrosion and increases asset life since it has a higher thermal capability while being lighter in weight.
Price Action: WNC shares are trading higher by 2.49% at $18.33 on the last check Thursday.
