Tem-Pace Inc. Expands Facility

Tem-Pace Inc., located in Niles, Mich., has announced its latest expansion. The company has secured the property adjacent to its present facility adding an additional 24,000 square feet, bringing the total to over 100,000 square feet under roof on approximately 14 acres.

Tem-Pace started in 1987 with its first glass fabricating and tempering facility of approximately 20,000 square feet and little more than 10 employees. The vision of Richard J. Krause Sr., founder and chief executive officer, was to service customers in the immediate tri-state area, providing quality custom fabricated flat tempered glass products to customers quickly, efficiently and cost effectively.

The company has undergone two additional expansions over that past few years to approximately 78,000 square feet and has afforded Tem-Pace the opportunity for additional fabrication equipment and the addition of a Glasstech CRB tempering system capable of producing radius bent tempered glass.

In pursuing new and innovative products, Tem-Pace has developed its own decorative glass product line SculpturLite. Tem-Pace presently employs 111 employees.
