Alvarado, Texas-based C&W Manufacturing announces its 30th anniversary. Specializing in dust-control products, especially for use on concrete batch plants, C&W Manufacturing started as a small company serving a niche market in 1978; in 1992, the business comprising nine employees and an 8,600 -sq.-ft. facility was purchased by Deryl Beakley, who notes that C&W plans to do 12 times the annual volume this year as compared to his first year of operation. Substantial growth, especially during the last decade, led to several expansions: C&W relocated in the late Î90s to a new plant in Alvarado, just south of Fort Worth. That 14,400-sq.-ft. facility was expanded again in 2002 to over 35,000 sq. ft. Currently, the company has 60 employees and a dealer network covering the entire U.S. and several foreign countries. The most recent addition to its product line is the Modular Central Collector.
