Asahi/America Opens New Facility
Thermoplastic valve and pipe manufacturer Asahi/America, Inc. opened the doors and celebrated the grand opening of its newly constructed Louisiana-based fabrication shop in Paulina, Louisiana with customers, partners, employees, and local government officials on June 1, 2023. The new facility focuses on large-scale thermoplastic pre-fabrication and is known as Asahi/America – PPI, a division of Asahi/America.

Construction of the new 59,000-square-foot fabrication facility finished in late 2022 in a neighboring city adjacent to the original facility. It will add over 36,000 additional square footage and will improve efficiencies of large-scale and complex pre-fabrication piping projects. Asahi/America initially expanded its fabrication capabilities and operational capacity during the acquisition of Performance Plastics Inc. (PPI) in 2018.
