Alreco aluminum plant hits snag

Plans for the new Alreco aluminum plant on Clarksville Road fell behind schedule as the parent company, MHM Metal, continued working to perfect the process in which it will be recycling aluminum recycling byproducts at its new site in Logan County.

The plant will be the first of its kind in the U.S. Alreco already has a similar facility operating in Australia, where MHM Metal is based.

“It is a new process, and I don’t think they got up to full production in their Australian plant as quickly as they anticipated,” said Tom Harned, the executive director for the Logan Economic Alliance for Development. “They are still pretty much on the same timeline. They are working on their design and engineering of their process. We are anticipating seeing that get going over the summer.”

Once they have all the kinks worked out, Harned said he expects the company to finish work at the old ITW facility on Clarksville Road.

“We want them to have it working as smoothly and efficiently as possible before they commit to the facility here,” Harned said.

Alreco has already done some work at its Logan County facility. The office building has been remodeled, a new parking lot was constructed and the old water tower was taken down.
