Spartan Light Metal Products Breaks Ground in Mexico, Missouri

The Korte Company has recently begun construction on a 135,000 square foot die cast manufacturing facility for Spartan Light Metals in Mexico, Missouri. The new state of the art facility will utilize lighter weight materials to meet the auto industry’s increasing demand for lightweight, more fuel efficient structural components. The move will help solidify Spartan Light Metal Products’ position as a leader in the growing electric propulsion systems market.
