Allied Plastics to Expand in Twin Lakes
August 21 , 2006

Allied Plastics will add more than 24,000 SF to its production facility this fall. The planned expansion was kicked off with a groundbreaking ceremony on August 18 at their facility in Twin Lakes. The expansion will connect Allied's production and distribution centers, providing room to grow and greatly improving operational efficiencies.

Established in 1995, Allied is a Twin Lakes-based custom thermo former. The company has expanded rapidly and produces an array of products for customers in a variety of industries including automotive, transportation, recreation and food service.

Officials from Allied Plastics worked closely with the Village of Twin Lakes to plan for the expansion. The project required real estate acquisition, vacation of an existing roadway, and the re-routing of a sanitary sewer line.

The company and the community are excited as the project allows Allied to expand in the Village. With 62 employees, Allied Plastics is one of Twin Lakes' largest employers.

M&I Bank and the Kenosha Area Business Alliance are participating to provide project financing. Powers Lake Construction will handle excavation, site work, and utility relocations. Kueny Architects will serve as the general contractor.
