Madison–Today Governor Walker joined Industrial Ventilation Inc. to announce that the company will be adding thirty full-time employees this year and expanded their manufacturing facility in Wisconsin. No state incentives were involved in IVI’s expansion.

“We’re thrilled that IVI is expanding in Wisconsin,” said Governor Walker. “The company could have added additional jobs in other states, but chose to grow here. We want to thank CEO Gerry Auler and his employees for their commitment to our state.”

Auler attributes the company’s growth, in part, to the improved economic climate of the State of Wisconsin.

“The company’s two current Wisconsin facilities are filled to capacity from the innovative and customized industrial ventilation systems and material handling solutions we provide to clients throughout the United States,” said Auler. “And, our 10,000 sq. ft. facility in Spartanburg, S.C., is equally brimming with work. This type of growth, in this type of economy, would never have been possible without the governmental agencies and the people behind them who are working hard to elevate Wisconsin’s economy to be the best in the world.”

Opened in 1993, IVI is one of the leading full-service mechanical contractors in the United States with engineering, design, fabrication and installation capabilities. Specializing in industrial ventilation, IVI has provided air quality solutions to growing businesses across the Unites States, Canada, Mexico and South America.
