Dura-Line to produce plastic conduit for fiberoptic lines in Texas

Orbia’s Connectivity Solutions business Dura-Line will expand into the Lubbock community. This expansion will create 141 new full-time jobs and introduce over $52 million of capital investment.

Leading in the global manufacturing and distribution of conduit, FuturePath, and cable-in-conduit, Orbia’s Dura-Line business delivers infrastructure solutions for connectivity in industries including telecommunications, enterprise networking, energy and transportation. The business announced its expansion into the Lubbock Logistics Center II located in the Lubbock Business Park, where it will manufacture plastic conduit for fiberoptic lines.

“We are experiencing unprecedented demand for our products. So, expanding in a strategic location with a highly skilled workforce was crucial to our business plan. Lubbock exceeds in both categories,” said Elad Shmulevich, Vice President of Global Operations at Orbia Connectivity Solutions (Dura-Line). Shmulevich continued, “The support we’ve received from
the LEDA team and the Lubbock community so far has confirmed that we made the right decision.”
