Farmingville, New York - Frederick C. Braun III, Chairman of the Town of Brookhaven Industrial Development Agency, announced that the Board accepted an application for benefits from a leading Chinese manufacturer of architectural glass that plans to open its first U.S. operation in the Shirley industrial park.
The application from WHTB Glass LLC, an affiliate of Beijing Wuhua Tianbao Glass Co., Ltd (WHTB), was accepted at the IDA's January 13 meeting. WHTB intends to build and equip a 44,000-square-foot building in a vacant 4.2-acre parcel of land on Ramsey Road, southeast of Exit 68 of the Long island Expressway.
WHTB anticipates employing 143 workers at the site, where window components shipped from China will be processed, assembled, and when necessary adjusted. Construction is expected to start in the fall.
