Camfil APC is excited to announce a series of marketing activities leading up to the opening of our new facility on Nestle Road in Jonesboro, Ark. We have gathered hours of video footage including drone flyovers and timelapse videos of the deconstruction and construction of Camfil APC facilities since the tornado that touched down in spring of 2020. By documenting and sharing the progress of this journey, we hope you will all be as excited as we are to finally move into this state-of-the-art building in the coming months.

John Williams, Senior Project Manager, shared some insight into the next and final steps of the building construction. “Construction continues to move forward both inside and outside of our new factory. Additionally, we await major electrical components for the factory and office infrastructure that have been delayed,” Williams said. “With some luck, we should see these items arriving in early July.”

Roofing installation continues as we await the delivery of roofing clips that were damaged in the high winds earlier this spring. Williams said that the factory will be completely enclosed and taking shape in the next couple of weeks and will begin to “look more like a Camfil Factory.”

“Our building infrastructure and equipment continue with equipment deliveries in late June and July that include air compressors, compressed air dryers, nitrogen generation systems, compressed air loop, weld gas liners and nitrogen piping in progress,” Williams said. “Our municipal groups are working to complete the expansion of underground utilities to the site which should conclude in July with the final connections to Camfil’s new factory.”

Final June and July projects include City of Jonesboro inspections, framing for the second floor, final civil works of the property including roads, driveways, green spaces and parking lots. We are currently adding our signature green stripe to the building.

Watch a Timelapse of the Building Progress

We invite everyone to follow along with the progress on our new YouTube playlist dedicated to the new Camfil factory. Each week, we will update the playlist with an informative video about the facility including timelapse videos, interviews with project managers and historiographies of how this building emerged.

Additionally, we encourage everyone to follow Camfil APC’s Facebook and LinkedIn pages to see images, factoids and employee spotlights relating to the new facility as well. There has been so much buzz and excitement internally about our new facility and factory, and we are excited to share the progress with our customers, partners, employees and colleagues around the world and the supportive community of Jonesboro, Ark.
