Modine officially opened a 155,000-square-foot manufacturing facility in Franklin, Wisconsin, to produce Airedale by Modine data center cooling products. It is part of a multi-year USD 100 million investment announced in July, and is expected to create more than 300 jobs by March 2026.
Modine announced a $100 million investment over 12-18 months to expand Airedale data center cooling manufacturing at four US sites, including a new facility in the Dallas, Texas area and an expansion in Grenada, Mississippi, with possible repurposing of Performance Technologies sites in Franklin, Wisconsin and Jefferson City, Missouri.
Modine is investing more than $38 million through 2028 to upgrade its Grenada, Mississippi facility and expand data center chiller manufacturing, expected to create more than 450 jobs. Chiller production is expected to begin later this summer.
Modine announced $180 million in orders for Airedale by Modine data center cooling systems from a new customer, a leading AI infrastructure developer. The products will be manufactured in Rockbridge, Virginia and Grenada, Mississippi, with delivery through the first half of 2026.
