Morris, Minn. – Superior Industries, Inc., a US-based manufacturer and global supplier of bulk material processing and handling systems, is proud to announce the grand opening of a new crushing manufacturing facility in Morris, Minnesota, its headquarters and hometown since the company was founded in 1972. A symbolic ribbon-cutting ceremony marked the occasion, highlighting Superior’s commitment to growth and innovation in the crushing market.

The new facility, dedicated to producing jaws and cones, will increase Minnesota’s crusher production capacity by an impressive 50%. This expansion enhances support for dealers and producers across North America’s aggregates and mining industries, delivering greater efficiency and product availability. Superior’s impact crushers, including VSIs and HSIs, will continue to be produced at the company’s other crusher facility in Belen, New Mexico. Additionally, Superior’s global network includes crusher manufacturing sites in South America and Asia, broadening its reach to serve international markets.

“This new facility means more opportunities for everyone connected to Superior — from our dealers and producers to our team members and local communities,” said Jason Adams, president of Superior Industries. “With more capacity and smoother operations, we’re able to stay true to our purpose of serving others by providing products that help our partners succeed!”

The facility features an integrated hydraulics assembly area, an inline test zone, and expanded parts warehousing to support the growing need for reliable, on-demand, critical components

Morris, Minn. – Superior Industries, Inc., a US-based manufacturer and global supplier of bulk material processing and handling systems, says crews at its Arizona manufacturing facility recently celebrated the first piece of finished equipment to exit the newly expanded operations.

The expanded facility now includes a third equipment production line, focusing on non-telescoping portable conveyors.

“This means we can reserve the existing lines of production to be more product specific,” says Jason Adams, Superior’s president. “Most notably, it’s really going to take stress off TeleStacker® Conveyor production in Arizona and allow us to produce more of these high-demand telescoping stackers.”

Along with the new line for non-telescoping portable conveyors, the Arizona facility also replicated a new idler manufacturing setup launched in Minnesota earlier this year. This investment in machinery, robotics, and automation significantly increases conveyor idler throughput company-wide.

“The headline says more manufacturing space out west, but this is going to have a positive effect on all of our operations and improve lead times across the board,” says Adams.

Morris, Minn. – Superior Industries, Inc., a US-based manufacturer and global supplier of bulk material processing and handling systems, recently announced expansion plans at its facility in Prescott Valley, Arizona. The company says it will add a fourth production line for manufacturing its equipment used in the construction aggregates and metals mining industries around the world.

“Our dealers in the region are growing rapidly and we need to increase production space so they can continue supporting their customers,” says Superior’s president, Jason Adams. “This isn’t possible without the hard work of Kimball Equipment Company or Power Equipment Company, and we definitely owe this to them!”

The expansion — which is expected to break ground later this year — will increase the size of Superior’s existing facility by 33-percent. It’s going to allow production of more conveyors, portable processing plants, and pre-engineered modular systems, which are all already manufactured inside the existing facility today.

“Our core purpose is building innovation that creates opportunity,” says Adams. “This new space will allow us to employ more people, help our dealers grow, and supply more American-made products to the region’s stone, sand and gravel companies.”

The Prescott Valley location was Superior’s first satellite manufacturing operations outside of its headquarters in Morris, Minnesota, and opened in 2006. Today, the local plant employs 135 people with about 10 current job openings to fill, which are listed at workatsuperior.com. Local managers say the expansion will create about 25 new jobs.
