Volt Industrial Plastics broke ground on a 36,000 sq ft expansion of its Arkansas plastic fastener manufacturing plant.

The expansion will bring the plant to 100,000 sq ft for production and inventory of 100 million parts.

Volt ships domestically and internationally and builds tooling and parts in house.

“I want to say thank you to each and every one of you that work here every day and work so hard,” COO and marketing president Heidi Volltrauer told 100 employees at the groundbreaking ceremony.  “I hope you’re all as excited as I am of where we’re going this next year and the years to come.”

Joe Volltrauer used tool & die experience to start JV Tool in 1973 and then Volt in 1992.  Volt now manufactures plastic screws and nuts, license plate screws, Christmas tree clips, rivets, wire & cable routing clips, printed circuit board hardware, dowels, washers and other hardware.

The expansion should be completed by the end of summer.

The Volt plant is at 706 Hwy 202 West, Yellville, AR 72687.   Tel: 800 844-8024  Web: VoltPlastics.com
