Vertiv has expanded its North American manufacturing operations with a new facility in Pelzer, South Carolina. The facility will produce various infrastructure solutions, including modular power systems and integrated systems.

Vertiv, a global provider of digital infrastructure and continuity solutions, disclosed a major expansion of its North American manufacturing operations with a new facility in Pelzer, South Carolina. The Vertiv Pelzer facility adds 215,000 square feet (about 20,000 square meters) of manufacturing space and is projected to create up to 300 additional skilled job opportunities at this location.

Vertiv Pelzer’s facility will produce various infrastructure solutions, including modular power systems and other integrated systems, utilising Vertiv’s power, cooling, and IT infrastructure technologies for data centers. These prefabricated and pre-engineered solutions are fully factory pre-tested as a system, significantly reducing site labour requirements and overall data centre time to market. Vertiv’s integrated modular solutions offer customers a secure path to future operations expansion. 

“Our global infrastructure solutions business is strong and growing, as the demand for AI accelerates and our customers see the value of an integrated approach to support faster compute deployment,” said Vertiv CEO Giordano (Gio) Albertazzi. “Increasing manufacturing capacity is critical to meeting the needs of our customers, and the Vertiv Pelzer operations are central to that mission for our Americas and global operations.”

In addition to the new Pelzer facility, Vertiv also has a switchgear and busbar manufacturing facility in nearby Anderson, South Carolina. Vertiv has increased the capacity of its infrastructure solutions, switchgear, and busbar businesses through increased utilisation and footprint expansion in the United States, Mexico, Slovakia, United Arab Emirates, Ireland, and Northern Ireland.
