Vecoplan Opens New Location in Southern California
The company’s new office will allow the company to more effectively service customers in the country’s western region.

A new office in Southern California was recently opened by manufacturer of industrial shredders and shredding and recycling technology Vecoplan, which will allow the company to more effectively service customers in the country’s western region as well as Mexico.
The Eastvale, Calif., office is the third location for the company, after its North American headquarters in North Carolina and a regional office in Indiana. A local Southern California customer, who specializes in recycling complex, multilayered plastics, officially anointed the in-house technology center of Vecoplan West with a plastics material shredding trial in April. Also housed at this Vecoplan office is a team of service technicians to perform maintenance and repair for the western half of the country. According to Bill Davison, vice president of operations, the team travels regularly to Colorado, Arizona and Nevada for machine maintenance and system installation projects.
Said CEO Frank Boerjan, “The western states and northern Mexico – and Southern California in particular – has a multitude of manufacturing facilities in the markets we sell to. Opening an office in California was the logical next step for us to support those customers and our growth strategy. This location is close to a network of major highways for our replacement part distribution and only twenty minutes from the Ontario airport. Regional customers can easily access us for visits, and we can now service them more quickly in return.”
