Gray is responsible for Phase I and II scopes of work, which include building shell, concrete, and MEP. The challenging schedule for the greenfield facility necessitates close collaboration between Gray and the customer’s foreign equipment providers to ensure timely procurement, installation, and commissioning.
The facility includes three bridge cranes for material handling, a 35′ deep basement for processing, and a 120′ tall automated storage & retrieval system (AS/RS). IKO expects to reach full production capacity at the facility by mid-2025.
