Lehigh Phoenix Expanding Maryland Facility

HAGERSTOWN, MD—Lehigh Phoenix, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Visant Corp., is expanding its complex here. The expansion will add 28,000 square feet to the existing 180,000-square-foot facility.

Lehigh Phoenix, which originally relocated to Washington County in 1992, is a provider of book components and short-run books for the trade and educational publishing segments.

The expansion will accommodate additional equipment and capabilities into the Hagerstown location, facilitating the production of heavily illustrated, multicolor and other short-run books. Production capabilities will be relocated from Lehigh’s facility in Rockaway, NJ, with the expansion and transition from Rockaway expected to be completed by mid-April.
