Project Description

The NMTC-financed equipment purchase for a flooring manufacturer to bring a line of business onshore that is currently 100% imported from China.

Mannington Mills, Inc. is a fifth-generation family-owned flooring manufacturing company that specializes in luxury vinyl products. Mannington sought to expand a prototype production facility for its Rigid Core line of business in rural Georgia, creating US-based jobs and expanding manufacturing capabilities that would otherwise remain in China.

NMTC financing was used to subsidize the cost to construct a new facility to house the Rigid Core project and acquire and install equipment for Rigid Core production lines.
