Terex Campsie, the manufacturing center for leading Terex brands including Terex Ecotec, Green-Tec, and ProStack, celebrated its 5th anniversary since opening in 2019.
Over the past five years, the facility has become a key engineering and manufacturing facility for Terex, playing an essential role in advancing its brands across the waste management, recycling and bulk material handling industries.
Jonathan Hanna, general manager of Terex Campsie, said, "These past five years have been a testament to the dedication, innovation and passion of our team at Terex Campsie. From the very beginning, our goal was to be at the forefront of the waste management, recycling sectors and conveying sectors, and today we are proud to see how far we've come.
"Our team has made significant strides in production capacity, product development and safety, and we look forward to many more years of success."
In its first year, the facility quickly became home for Terex Ecotec and Terex Conveying Systems. Just a year later, in 2020, a 30,000-sq.-ft. expansion was completed, allowing for the addition of the ProStack product line. Production has seen substantial growth, with the facility reaching its 100th machine in 2020, 500th in 2022, and its 1,000th machine— the TDS 815 Slow Speed Shredder—in 2024.
Throughout this growth, the site has maintained a strong commitment to safety, celebrating 1,000 days without a lost-time incident in September 2024.
Employment at Terex Campsie expanded from 15 employees in 2019 to over 150 today, reflecting the site's ongoing development and investment in local talent.
Terex Campsie's expansion has not only facilitated the production of industry-leading products but also enabled the site to drive a proactive product development strategy. This approach has resulted in a 50 percent expansion of operations since 2019, and output has tripled compared to its early years. Terex Campsie continues to serve global markets, exporting machines worldwide and reinforcing Terex's position as a leading manufacturer of advanced environmental and conveying equipment.
"The last five years have been an incredible journey and reaching our 1,000th machine production milestone was a proud achievement for the entire team," Hanna said. "While current market conditions have presented challenges, we remain committed to focusing on innovation, safety, and operational efficiency. As we navigate these times, our focus is on building a resilient foundation that positions the site for future growth and continued leadership in the waste management, recycling and conveying sectors."
