Rehrig Pacific Opens State-of-the-Art Manufacturing Facility In Buckeye

 

BUCKEYE, AZ (October 28, 2024) — Rehrig Pacific, a leading manufacturer of integrated sustainable solutions for the supply chain and environmental waste industries, celebrated the grand opening of their state-of-the-art, 264,000-square-foot manufacturing facility on October 26 in Buckeye, Arizona.

The grand opening highlighted the dedicated efforts of the Rehrig Pacific team, state and local developers, Arizona economic development partners, and the critical partnership with the City of Buckeye. Their collaboration was instrumental in the fast-paced construction of this cutting-edge, people-focused facility, which broke ground in May of 2023.

“We are grateful for the support of our local and state partners,” said Will Rehrig, CEO of Rehrig Pacific. “Choosing Buckeye to build our plant was a great decision, allowing us to become part of a special community and build a lasting partnership with the city. This facility represents more than just a workplace—it embodies our mission and values, provides an innovative space for our people to grow and excel, and gives us the opportunity to deliver exceptional service to our customers while expanding for the future.”

Rehrig Pacific anticipates around 115 full-time positions within the plant. The building sits on a 35-acre site, providing the opportunity to double the facility to 500,000-square-feet in the future. The facility was designed for employees’ safety, comfort, and well-being. It is equipped with fully air-conditioned spaces, smart dock controls, 380 KW solar panels, EV charging stations, a water reclamation system, and more.

“The grand opening represents an exciting new chapter for Rehrig Pacific in Arizona,” said Sandra Watson, President and CEO of the Arizona Commerce Authority. “Rehrig’s new manufacturing facility highlights the state’s sustainability leadership and showcases continued manufacturing growth in the West Valley and statewide. Congratulations to Will Rehrig and the entire Rehrig Pacific team on this milestone–we look forward to supporting Rehrig Pacific’s success in Buckeye.”

“As Greater Phoenix’s prominence in manufacturing increases at the national scale, regional leaders have prioritized the development of the circular economy to ensure sustainability and clean solutions,” said Chris Camacho, President and CEO, Greater Phoenix Economic Council. “Rehrig Pacific’s operations in Buckeye will drive these fundamentals for a modern, expansive supply chain.”

“Rehrig Pacific is an incredible business and community partner for the city of Buckeye,” said Buckeye Mayor Eric Orsborn. “Their high-tech facility checks all the boxes for our growing city, providing a great place to work for our residents, creating sustainable products, being a catalyst for future development in the corridor, and supporting our community events.”
