Forge Werks, a Polargy Company, Adds 250,000 Sq. Ft.

Forge Werks, a Polargy Company, is expanding its manufacturing footprint in Connersville, Indiana, with a second location adding 250,000 square feet of production space. 

The Western Avenue facility is the latest investment in Forge Werks’ continued growth. It will significantly expand capacity for data center skids, fabricated assemblies, and other high-capacity steel manufacturing projects. With this addition, Polargy’s total manufacturing footprint will exceed 800,000 square feet of data center white and grey space manufacturing. 

The new facility will initially add six weld lines, joining the four weld lines already operating at Forge Werks’ existing Connersville location. Together, the two facilities will give the company greater capacity to support growing customer demand and larger production programs. 

Expanding Data Center Manufacturing Capabilities 

The Western Avenue expansion includes added capacity and new equipment designed to increase speed, precision, and the range of work the facility can complete. 

A new Mazak FG-400 NEO 6kW 3D Fiber Laser will significantly expand tube, pipe, and structural steel processing capabilities. Forge Werks is also adding a large-scale blast and powder coat system that can handle assemblies up to 66 feet long.  

Together, these investments give customers a more streamlined path from raw material through fabrication and finishing, reducing handoffs, improving quality control, and keeping complex projects moving with one partner. 

Built for Growth 

The Western Avenue facility also gives Forge Werks room to keep expanding, with additional space available to support future growth. 

That space could support future integration and assembly work, allowing Forge Werks to expand the range of services available to customers as demand grows. As a Polargy Company, growth also strengthens Polargy’s broader manufacturing platform and capacity for data center and critical power projects at scale. 

Investing in Connersville, IN 

The Western Avenue expansion represents a significant investment in Forge Werks’ customers, manufacturing capabilities, team members, and the Connersville community. 

With a second Indiana location, additional weld capacity, new processing and finishing equipment, and room for future expansion, Forge Werks is building the infrastructure needed to support the next stage of growth. 

Forge Werks continues to invest in the people, equipment, and capacity needed to support data center, critical power, and industrial manufacturing customers at scale. 

The Bigger Polargy Picture 

Across Polargy and its companies, the focus is on building the capacity and capabilities needed to support more of the data center under one umbrella. From airflow and containment in the white space to skids, structural assemblies, and critical power infrastructure in the grey space, the Western Avenue expansion strengthens the broader platform Polargy is building for customers.
