The company’s planned South Side Expansion to its facility in Humboldt will add production and assembly capacity to help meet increasing market demand.
HUMBOLDT, Tenn.—Reinhausen Manufacturing (RM), a subsidiary of Regensberg, Germany-based Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen (MR), recently announced the South Side expansion of its facility in Humboldt.
The South Side expansion will add 12,000 square feet (1,100m²) of production space, along with additional office accommodations, to the Humboldt facility. Groundbreaking is projected for Summer 2025, with the project slated for completion by July 1, 2026, the company said in a release.
The development is said to mark another significant step in the company’s commitment to supporting the modernization of the aging U.S. power grid and meeting the increasing energy demands of critical sectors, such as data centers.
“This latest investment builds on RM’s legacy of innovation and capacity growth,” the release stated. “The new space is vital to RM’s continued readiness to meet projected market demand through 2030. It will support the ETOS MD-IV production, consolidate packaging operations to enhance overall efficiency, and enable further production and testing expansion of the RMV-II systems.”
Located on the south side of the current plant, the addition is said to reflect RM’s “proactive approach to scaling operations while maintaining its leadership in grid digitization and energy solutions.”
“This expansion is a testament to our dedication to our customers and the nationwide push for a stronger, more resilient power grid,” said Reinhausen Manufacturing President and CEO Bob Vary, in a statement. “By investing in production and assembly capacity here in Humboldt, we are maintaining our focus on innovation and providing faster response times as demand surges across the energy landscape. With this project, we reaffirm our commitment to delivering groundbreaking solutions necessary to meet evolving industry demands.”
The South Side Expansion also underscores RM’s positive economic impact on the local community. Beyond its role in helping modernize the grid, RM expects this project to contribute to local economic growth through job creation and additional tax revenues.
