Hustler Turf Equipment Breaks Ground on Major Plant Addition

Excel Industries, Inc., manufacturer of Hustler Turf Equipment broke ground on a 40,000-square-foot addition that will add a new state-of-the-art paint system.

The 200 x 200-foot addition will house the most up-to-date powder-coat paint system in the industry. The new paint system will give Hustler Turf Equipment an improved finished appearance and increased durability.

Two thirds of the new building will be used initially for storing finished goods inside. The addition is designed to function as a production assembly area when additional expansion becomes necessary.

Target completion date for the new addition is Thanksgiving, 2003. Finished mowers with the new paint will be shipping by the end of the year.
