RICHMOND, Va. — Weidmuller USA, a provider of smart industrial connectivity and automation products, hosted the grand opening of its 24,000-square-foot engineering and production facility on June 11.
The event also highlighted the year-long celebration of Weidmuller’s 50th anniversary in Richmond, Virginia. Founded in 1850 in Germany, Weidmüller Group is celebrating its 175th Anniversary globally.
Attending the event were several company, state, and local leaders: Sebastian Durst, CEO of Weidmüller Global; Christian von Toll, chief sales officer of Weidmüller Global; Randy Sadler, president and CEO of Weidmuller USA; Juan Pablo Segura, Virginia’s secretary of commerce and trade; and Jessica Schneider of the Chesterfield County Board of Supervisors.
“The Richmond headquarters expansion marks the start of an exciting and long-planned transition to handling more complex assembly and eventual local production of electro-industry technologies and solutions right here in Richmond, Virginia,” said Sadler in a press release. “To-date, we’ve invested $10 million to set up the engineering and production facility, but continued investment in more machinery, training, and production will fulfill our commitment to engineer and manufacture products closer to U.S. customers. Our talented team in Richmond is fully committed to growing our customer base and increasing our U.S. footprint.”
The new facility was designed to reduce the company’s carbon footprint through features that include solar panels, high-efficiency HVAC, and the use of recycled materials. A native habitat garden accentuates the natural landscape next to the building and creates a relaxing and sustainable space for employees to enjoy at lunch or on breaks, the press release said.
“For 50 years and counting, Richmond has proven to be an ideal location for our continued growth, thanks to support from the state government and economic development organizations, Chesterfield County and the entire community,” said Sadler. “As we celebrate the opening of our new production facility and all the milestones for Weidmuller USA and the Weidmüller Group in 2025, we look forward to building on our shared legacy of innovating and delivering end-to-end solutions in smart industrial connectivity and automation.”
