Global supplier Kingspan Roofing + Waterproofing is expanding with a new manufacturing facility located in Allegany County.
The company selected a 348,000 square-foot facility at One Hunter Douglas Drive in Cumberland, which is slated for redevelopment in December. The new location will allow for large-scale production and distribution of roofing and waterproofing components, and is expected to help boost the region’s manufacturing sector. Kingspan also anticipates creating 95 full-time jobs over the next five years.
“Embracing the potential for increased manufacturing is a pivotal part of Maryland’s continued economic vitality, especially for the rural regions of our state,” said Maryland Commerce Secretary Kevin Anderson. “Together, we will work to create more opportunity and advancement for Allegany County.”
