On September 10, 2025 Voith broke ground on a multi-million-dollar project that will expand and modernize its roll service center in West Monroe, Louisiana - adding more than 20 new jobs and supporting the local economy.
In addition to expanding capacity, the investment into the facility will enhance logistical processes, supporting a faster and more seamless service experience for Voith customers. The size of the roll service center will increase by almost 50% - adding workspace as well as a dedicated training center to support the critical hands-on training of skilled trade experts in the industry.
The Voith facility offers a wide variety of roll services for customers who are in the papermaking industry. Services offered include operations and optimization of products; mechanical roll services such as rebuilds, grinding, balance and vibration analysis; roll coverings; roll and part replacements, as well as spreader roll rebuilds and repairs.
The groundbreaking marks Voith Paper's largest, most recent investment in North America. The project is expected to continue through the middle of 2026, and the Voith roll service center will remain fully operational throughout construction.
The Voith Group is a global technology company.
