Water Tech, Inc. announces $10.8M expansion in Statesville

Full-service water treatment company Water Tech, Inc. has announced plans to expand their operations, opening its first facility in the Carolinas in the City of Statesville. Their proposed new 50,000-square-foot facility represents a $10.8 million investment and the creation of 26 new jobs.

Water Tech, Inc. chose the Statesville location to better serve their customers on the east coast. 

Founded 33 years ago, Water Tech, Inc. is a privately-owned, full-service water treatment company with a primary industry focus on food processing facilities as well as other industrial facilities. 

The company is based in Fort Smith, Arkansas, with additional plants in McAlester, Oklahoma; and Meridian, Mississippi. The Statesville facility will be the company’s fourth facility and their only location in North Carolina.

Water Tech, Inc. is committed to providing knowledgeable and timely consultation for the management and application of water and wastewater treatment programs at their customer’s treatment location. To ensure they are able to offer a high-level of service to their east coast customer base, they enlisted the assistance of the Iredell Economic Development Corporation to secure economic grants from both the City of Statesville and Iredell County.
