Hapman (Kalamazoo, Mich.; www.hapman.com), a global leader in custom bulk-material handling equipment, is proud to announce a significant expansion of its manufacturing facility. As demand for Hapman’s solutions continues to grow, the company is investing in an additional 18,500 square feet of manufacturing space, increasing its total manufacturing area by 35%. By expanding its footprint, Hapman is positioning itself to continue its legacy of excellence and maintain its leadership in the bulk material handling industry for years to come.
