Design Engineering, Inc., a heat and sound management products company, is entering phase two of a long-term, three-phase expansion project that will increase capacity at its headquarters in Avon Lake, Ohio. This expansion will allow DEI to expand our manufacturing, assembly and warehouse capabilities, and grow our R&D department, said Dave Ramirez, vice president of operations. With this second addition, the added space will allow us to consolidate remote facilities all under one roof. Phase one occurred in 2013, when DEI completed a 12,000-square foot addition that more than doubled its prior warehouse space. Phase two of a three phase plan will add approximately 10,000 square feet to the current facility, bringing the total square footage to 35,000. The additional space will allow DEI, which celebrated its 25th anniversary in 2020, to continue to build on its impressive lineup of heat and sound control products for the automotive, racing, powersports, 12-volt audio, industrial, marine and related markets. Manufacturing and R&D will be enhanced with the addition of a water jet cutter, as well as other new equipment and process improvements. For more information, visit www.designengineering.com.
