Wire mesh safety solutions manufacturing company to create 120 new jobs in Portland
Troax Group, a global leader in protective mesh panel solutions that safeguard people, property and processes, will establish its first Aspen Guard manufacturing facility in Tennessee, relocating operations from Chicago to Portland.
“Tennessee continues to lead the nation with one of the fastest-growing economies thanks to companies like Troax Group, which continue to place their trust in our state and skilled workforce. We are proud to welcome this company to Tennessee and look forward to the opportunity these 120 new jobs will bring to families across Robertson County,” said Governor Bill Lee.
The project will create 120 new jobs and invest nearly $23 million to support wire mesh panel production operations for its Troax and Folding Guard brands. Troax Group was founded in 1955 in Sweden.
“Troax Group is pleased to announce a major investment in Tennessee, marking a significant step in expanding our North American manufacturing operations. Our new Aspen Guard facility in Portland, serving both Folding Guard and Troax brands, will enable us to better provide our customers with top-tier mesh panel solutions for safe storage, machine guarding and warehouse partitioning. This investment underscores our commitment to the region, promising new jobs and a vibrant hub for ideas, talent and innovation,” said Troax Group Americas President Jose Nunez.
