RigMaster Power Corp. has announced opening a second manufacturing facility to build its RigMaster Power auxiliary power unit

RigMaster Power Corp. has announced opening a second manufacturing facility to build its RigMaster Power auxiliary power unit (APU). The Olathe, KS-based facility, named RigMaster Power Inc., will boost overall production of the APUs.

The new facility will begin production in early March and will also house RigMaster parts distribution for North America.

“Sales have exploded over the past year and lead times have stretched out,” said general sales manager Gary Lisson. “I am glad to say with the additional facility in place, our customers won’t have to wait to start saving fuel, saving money and saving the environment.”

In 2005 the company added another shift to maximize production at its first facility.
