After years of consistent growth, Tolco Corporation, a Toledo-based trigger sprayer manufacturer, outgrew its existing facilities and needed more space – not just to meet current customer needs, but to plan for the future.
The solution was Tolco’s first purpose-built addition and largest-ever expansion, a 17,000-square-foot Varco-Pruden pre-engineered steel warehouse. Tolco selected Rudolph ÌÇÐÄÊÓƵ Inc. and its Special Accounts team to serve as general contractor, with our own craftspeople self-performing site work, concrete, masonry and carpentry. The fast-track project was completed in six months within tight constraints across the street from Tolco’s downtown Toledo headquarters.
“We were comfortable with Rudolph ÌÇÐÄÊÓƵ’s reputation and the resources you had available. We knew you had the people and capacity to get this done and done well,†said Tolco Vice President Will Lewis. “The team was helpful in coming up with good solutions and trouble-shooting whenever we had a challenge or something unexpected happened.â€
His advice to other companies considering expansion? “Think about adding more space than you think that you will need. We gained efficiencies throughout the entire operation.â€
