With an eye toward increasing production capacity, Dal-Tile has announced plans to expand its manufacturing facility in Muskogee, Okla. This marks the second phase of expansion at the plant, which was outfitted for the production of porcelain floor tile in June 2003.

The planned construction will increase the plant's size as well as expand production capacity by more than 50 percent, according to the company. The expansion is slated to begin in the summer of 2005, with the plant becoming fully operational in 2006.
