In honor of National Manufacturing Day on Oct. 7, Penn United Technologies will be hosting an opening ceremony and recruiting event at its newly renovated manufacturing facility at 300 North Pike Road in Sarver.

A ribbon cutting ceremony, lunch and tour for invited guests will take place from noon to 2 p.m. and an open house recruiting event open to the public will be held from 3 to 6 p.m.

The goal of the event is to promote careers in manufacturing for the high-tech markets throughout Penn United, while showcasing its new facility across from Lernerville Speedway.

“In the last few years, we have experienced unprecedented demand driven by exponential growth in our connected world and the need for stamped and plated electrical contracts and terminals,” Penn United Technologies President and CEO Bill Jones said. “As a result, we have outgrown our current facility. We are excited to announce that this fall we will start moving into our new advanced materials processing facility.”
