Rock West Composites (RWC), a composite manufacturer has moved to new corporate headquarters at 7625 Panasonic Way in San Diego, California, a facility over three times larger than the previous. With 107,000 sq ft of total space, there is 20,000 sq ft of office space, 80,000 sq ft of manufacturing space, and an additional 7,000 sq ft for general warehouse.
 
While the company retains its locations in Salt Lake City, UT and Tijuana, Mexico, RWC’s former San Diego location on Precision Park Lane will be vacated in favour of the new building.
 
The entire space is not fully utilised, and the company is positioned for significant growth. This building will house the corporate offices, engineering, product development, and manufacturing centred around prototyping and production.
 
The plant will be able to accommodate large scale composites production and significant new capital equipment with the intention of growing the company’s already expansive capabilities to meet the space requirements of the expanding business. Its location is also close to the border with easy access to the company’s Tijuana plant, which specializes in high-volume production. The new facility has an adaptive infrastructure that allows for rapid refitting of manufacturing areas to accommodate new program requirements. There are clean room areas with varying levels of classification to accommodate customer needs.
 
“We are excited to start the new year in our new location,” Jim Gormican, CEO of Rock West Composites, said in a press release. “As our company continues to grow, we need to be responsive to our customers’ needs and this new building with adaptive infrastructure will enable us to be efficient and cost effective in all our programme activities.”
