A formwork and safety solutions provider has opened the doors to its new 23,000-square-foot U.S. headquarters in Kenilworth.
The company, Doka USA, said the space at 251 Monroe Ave. will house more than 150 employees from its Northeast New York branch and support teams, with room to grow. It will also allow the firm to better serve customers’ formwork, shoring and scaffolding needs, the firm said, adding that the 19-acre property includes more than 10 acres for storage capacity, reconditioning, preassembly and additional expansion space.
Doka’s move comes as part of a broader plan to upgrade and expand facilities across the USA.
“We want our team to look forward to coming to Doka every single day,” said Michael Kennedy, CEO of Doka USA Ltd. “Our new home is designed to create a collaborative environment in a spacious and modern setting to allow creative thinking, innovative ideas, and engagement in teamwork. We take pride in providing the best solutions to contractors and will now be even more equipped to expand on this with the proper environment for our team.”
“The new facility is located just 20 miles from New York City and will support our team in delivering high-quality, innovative formwork solutions and services to clients across the Northeast from Maine to Pennsylvania.”
