Delta Rigging & Tools recently held a groundbreaking ceremony to begin construction on a 27,000-square-foot multipurpose building located on 3.7 acres of land in Pasadena, Texas.
Plans to expand began in 2010 when Delta Rigging & Tools worked with Houston-based commercial real estate brokerage company, Mason Partners, which introduced Delta Rigging & Tools to a commercial park developer, Capital Commercial Investments. Once it was decided that Delta Rigging & Tools would lease the commercial property from Capital Commercial Investments, it looked to Tomorrow Planning to head the architectural design of the new building and Structura Inc. to oversee the construction.
Representatives from Capital Commercial Investments, Tomorrow Planning and Structura all participated in the groundbreaking.
The new 27,000-square-foot facility will consolidate Delta Rigging & Tools’ current Pasadena branch location and the corporate office building located in Pearland into one location. The current Pasadena branch, which houses 29 employees within a 10,000-square-foot space is mainly used as rigging production shop and sales distribution office. The new facility will be located less than five miles from the current Pasadena Delta Rigging & Tools location, but will now have 22,000 square feet of rigging shop and warehouse in addition to an expanded 5,000-square-foot corporate office space.
“Today we take an important step in providing support for our growing business with this year’s most eagerly anticipated project at Delta Rigging & Tools,” said Mitch Hausman, president and CEO of Delta, during the groundbreaking ceremony.
“We are all excited to move into our new location as it will provide more workspace to add additional production equipment, customer service personnel, covered warehouse storage, as well as extra parking and better access for shipping and receiving,” added Mike Peters, vice president of Delta Rigging & Tools’ Division III.
Construction on the new facility is expected to be completed by spring 2014.
Representatives from Capital Commercial Investments, Tomorrow Planning, Investment & Development Ventures, and Structura Inc. participated in the groundbreaking ceremony.
Delta Rigging & Tools is No. 77 on the RER 100.
