Walker Zanger Investing in Production
LOS ANGELES – Walker Zanger will dramatically increase production and employment during a two-phase expansion of its Ceramica Antique tile factory in central Mexico.
The investment, made with the support of parent company Mosaic Companies LLC, will increase current production capacity by 77%, and grow the labor force at the plant by 25% in creating 32 positions in production, quality control and logistics.
The investment, set to happen in two phases between 2022 and 2023, will increase the factory output, improve overall product quality, reduce the energy consumption and carbon footprint of the factory in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico.
The factory, part of the Walker Zanger group since 2008, has been a critical focus since Mosaic Companies acquired the Walker Zanger brand in early 2021.
The factory produces some of the brand’s most iconic lines like Andalucia – a red clay body ceramic tile featuring dimensional glazed terra cotta tile with a sophisticated antique patina in shades of blue, green, and white, and 6th Ave, a white body ceramic tile collection with a wide selection of field tile shapes, molding, and mosaic fields.
