CP Industries plans a 25,000-square-foot manufacturing expansion at 2214 Walnut St in McKeesport, Allegheny County. The $21.7 million project adds a new facility at the company's existing site.

The expansion will more than triple composite cylinder production and boost steel cylinder capacity 50 percent. It creates 78 jobs over five years and retains 115 full-time positions.

The Commonwealth is investing over $3.9 million: a $3.06 million PIDA loan, an $805,000 Pennsylvania First grant, and a $115,800 WEDnetPA training grant. Pennsylvania beat out Alabama and Michigan for the project.

Governor Shapiro and Lt. Governor Austin Davis announced the deal October 8. CP Industries has operated in the region since 1897 and is part of EKC International.
