WV: CertainTeed Gypsum Opens New Mfg. Plant; Create 200 Jobs; Invest $150M
CertainTeed Gypsum opens new plant near Moundsville

CertainTeed Gypsum hosted the grand opening of its new manufacturing plant near Moundsville, W.Va., on May 30. At $150 million, the CertainTeed Gypsum plant represents the largest manufacturing investment in the state since 1996, when Toyota announced it was locating an engine plant in Buffalo. The 750,000-square-foot manufacturing facility sits near the American Electric Power (AEP) Kammer-Mitchell coal-burning power plant. CertainTeed recycles a byproduct from AEP's scrubber stack and converts it into raw material for producing high-quality gypsum wallboards. The new plant is expected to create 200 jobs within three years.
