CONSTANTINE, Mich.— Michiana Rotational Molding, a southwest Michigan-based rotational molding company, has expanded its facility for a second time in less than five years of operation.

The addition of 35,000 square feet of production space and a new Rotoline rotomolding machine brings the company’s overall square footage to 135,000 square feet and six rotational molding machines.

“We’re very grateful to our customers and our team for making this growth both a necessity and an achievement,” said Mike Deputy, President of Michiana Rotational Molding in a news release. “Our ability to grow and add equipment is a testament to our loyal customers, expertise, dedicated team members, and careful strategic planning.”

Known as the Rotoline Carrossel CR 3.60, Michiana Rotational Molding’s new machine allows the company to expand its rotational molding offerings. The machine is optimized for the sequential production of parts in large volumes. It includes four arms, an oven for heating plastic resins within the desired shape and mold, and stations for pre-cooling, cooling, loading and unloading, and standby to increase productivity.

Increasing its production space by 35% will allow the company to manufacture additional customer orders and provide corresponding secondary services to support a new project Michiana Rotational Molding will begin in the second half of 2024.

The expansion and additional equipment has created 18 new positions at the company, between the operators required to run the new machine and those who are needed to provide secondary services on the products made by the machine.

MRM provides plastic products manufactured utilizing the rotational molding process. The company also provides secondary services such as assembly, quality testing, mold repair, finishing, and delivery service for local customers.

In addition to its custom rotomolding services and production, Michiana Rotational Molding serves many of the marine, RV, material handling, home and garden, agricultural, and other industries with a local presence in the Michiana and Midwest regions.
