The mixed-use building, located near 43rd Avenue and Buckeye Road (4565 West Watkins Street), will feature an 18,000-square-foot production area, 18,000 square feet set aside for storage and warehouse space, and 14,000 square feet dedicated to office space. APF President and CEO Daniel Owen says the new facility will enable the company to:
- Enhance training by offering more interactive presentations and demonstrations highlighting product value and application techniques.
- Improve and streamline operations, including the strategic location of loading docks that help improve processes for order pickup, truck deliveries and organizing finished goods.
- Increase production output. The additional square footage means APF can add more equipment, perform more runs at once and accommodate larger production runs to meet higher demand.
The construction was a collaborative design-build project among APF, Sun State Builders and Winton Architects.
“We were honored to be selected as the general contractor to deliver APF’s first design-build project,” said Andrea Piering, senior project manager for Sun State Builders. “The owners had such clear visions of what the facility would look and function like, and it was a pleasure to make those visions a reality.”
