Voyant Beauty breaks ground on major Elkhart aerosol facility expansion
The expansion will enhance the facility's processing capabilities, increase capacity, and create new employment opportunities, according to the company.
The expansion is part of a broader strategy of R&D, commercialisation and manufacturing investments, enabling Voyant to produce an increasing range of products that meet the increasing demand from its global customers, it added.
When completed, the new construction and upgrades will add over 20,000 sq. ft. of new processing space to the Elkhart Facility, enabling a new production line and other improvements.
Voyant acquired the facility in 2020 when the company acquired part of KIK Consumer Products.
The groundbreaking was attended by guests including Elkhart Mayor Rod Roberson, members of the Chamber of Commerce and senior Voyant executives, including CEO Ed Byczynski.
Chief operating officer Ron Lane welcomed and addressed the audience, highlighting the expansion and the company's vision for the future.
"This expansion, and others like it, enable us to meet our customers growing needs. It is another example of our commitment to innovation and growth," said Ed Byczynski, CEO of Voyant Beauty.
"By investing in Elkhart, we are not only enhancing our operational capabilities but also contributing to the local economy and fostering a stronger, more resilient community."
