Lindsay Corp. is investing in Lindsay’s future. The company is giving $500,000 to Lindsay Area Development (LAD) for the Lindsay Area Event and Wellness Center, $50,000 toward the purchase of a new ambulance, and property for a new fire station.
These contributions come after announcing it was going to spend $50 million over the next two years at its Lindsay plant.
Plans for the modernization of the facility include implementing Industry 4.0 technologies, including data connectivity, analytics, artificial intelligence and the additions of automation and robotics. The facility will house new equipment and the latest advancements in galvanizing, a core process for manufacturing pivot irrigation systems and road safety products. Lindsay also will expand the facility footprint by 40,000 square feet to allow for increased capacity and capabilities in metal forming. It expects to begin in the second quarter of fiscal year 2024 and complete by the end of 2025.
