Qualitrol (or the “Company”), a global provider of monitoring and protection solutions for critical electrical assets, has broken ground on an expansion of its headquarters and primary manufacturing facility in Fairport, New York. The 50,000 square foot expansion is expected to more than double the facility’s current production capacity while improving manufacturing flow, operational efficiency, and the company’s ability to respond to customer demand.
This investment to expand manufacturing capacity reflects growing customer demand for equipment that monitors and protects electrical assets that help utilities and industrial users operate safely and reliably. This demand is driven by trends in the global power industry, including increasing electrification, datacenter growth, grid modernization, renewable energy integration, and replacement of aging infrastructure.
“The power industry is investing at a pace we have not seen in decades, and our customers are counting on us to grow with them,” said Bala Vinayagam, President of Qualitrol. “This expansion is about building the capacity, capabilities, and operational resilience needed to support our customers as they strengthen and modernize the electrical grid.”
Construction is expected to continue through 2027, with no interruption to current operations at the Fairport facility. Upon completion, the facility will create new jobs with targeted headcount growth in Fairport of 30-60 percent spanning manufacturing, engineering, industrialization, operations, and supporting function roles.
