Uponor North America held a ceremonial “pipe-cutting event” to mark the opening of its $5.5 million, 25,000-square-foot expansion to the Hutchinson, Minnesota facility.
Tools were whirring at the Uponor booth throughout the AHR Expo, as Daniel Worm kept busy demonstrating the company’s new transition fittings. Booth visitors looked on as he expanded a plastic pipe and, using the newly launched Uponor ProPEX LF Brass Copper Press Adapters and the M18 ProPEX Expansion Tool from Milwaukee Tools, created a PEX-to-copper transition — without the use of a flame.
To honor the anniversary year, Uponor President and CEO Jyri Luomakoski celebrated the historic moment at the Nasdaq stock market with Bill Gray, president of Uponor North America, and a group of valued customers and partners.
