LG Hausys Expands Viatera Operations

LG Hausys is expanding its North American Viatera® brand operations with the addition of a new manufacturing line at its industrial campus in Northwest Georgia, along with a new warehouse and showroom in Southern California. The initiatives meet the growing demand for the company’s popular Viatera quartz surface product. They also continue LG Hausys’ commitment to providing industry leading product innovation and best-in-class customer service and delivery.

The new Viatera line is the third plant now in operation at LG Hausys’ existing manufacturing location in Adairsville, Ga. The new facility spans more than 111,000 sq. ft. and increases Viatera production capacity by 50 percent. Staffed with 40 new employees and fully in production since January 20th, the line produces Viatera products in Jumbo II slab size at 2cm and 3cm thickness. As part of LG Hausys’ multi-million dollar investment, the new line also allows for future product innovation. This includes the ability to add new robotic technologies for veining effects and utilizing advanced mechanical devices for new color and design creations.

Supporting the manufacturing expansion is the addition of a new 48,000 sq. ft. warehouse and showroom in Orange County, Calif. The warehouse will serve as the primary distribution hub for Viatera and LG Hausys’ solid surface product brand, HI-MACS. Its strategic location near Los Angeles enables LG Hausys to more effectively serve customers in Southern California and other West Coast markets. The warehouse is LG Hausys’ 14th in the U.S. and second in California. LG Hausys’ other California warehouse is located in Livermore and currently serves customers in the Bay Area and throughout Northern California.

The new showroom, located adjacent to the warehouse facility, will enable trade partners to view the latest innovative colors and designs from the Viatera and HI-MACS brands.

Available by appointment only, it will also serve as an event and meeting space for the design community, end-users and other LG Hausys customers.
