Cybex International, Inc. has opened a new, $15 million, 340,000 square foot eco-friendly manufacturing facility in Owatonna, Minn.  This facility is expected to serve projected growth and to generate significant manufacturing efficiencies over time.  The company’s new location is less than one mile from the original Owatonna facility which had manufactured strength training equipment since 1985. 


The facility, projected to enhance Cybex’s manufacturing while also maintaining its Owatonna employee base, is 70% larger than the previous plant. It has 275,000 square feet of manufacturing space with expandable capabilities of up to 490,000 square feet, including 35,000 square feet of office space and 30,000 square feet of warehouse space.


The building is designed to be environmentally sound and incorporates natural lighting and water recycling systems that provide cost-savings on maintenance and efficient energy consumption, while reducing green house gases and mercury pollution.
