Компания indus торжественно отметила закладку нового здания своего штаб-квартиры в Массачусетсе

News provided by Dacon Corporation Sep 08, 2026, 13:11 ET MIDDLEBOROUGH, Mass., Sept. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Dacon Corporation  and VMD Companies  gathered to celebrate a significant construction milestone with a ceremonial cross beam signing, marking the continued progress of indus  Headquarters. The event brought together project stakeholders, design and construction teams, community partners, and guests to recognize the collaboration, innovation, and craftsmanship driving the development forward. The signed structural beam, now permanently incorporated into the building, symbolizes the teamwork and shared commitment that have guided the project from concept through construction. From early design and planning through construction, Dacon partnered closely with the project team to deliver solutions that improved efficiency, reduced risk, and supported the client's long-term operational goals. "From our founding in 1957, indus (formerly Sealcoating Inc.) has taken pride in being able to solve problems, explore new ideas, and take on unfamiliar opportunities ourselves. Finding the right area, building a new facility, and creating our new home has been in the works for years, and we knew we had to nail it for the whole indus family. Early in the process, we realized we'd need to team up with the best of the best to get the results we dreamed of from this venture. We felt that with proper preparation and extensive vetting, we would find the dream team to partner with. As soon as we met with the teams from VMD and Dacon, we knew we were shaking the right hands. In the construction industry, the very first and most important thing you build is a meaningful relationship with the people involved in a project. As soon as we walked out of the introduction meeting, we realized we shared the same passion for people and projects, which gave us peace of mind and excitement for the future. Dacon and VMD's vision of our new home was perfectly in line with ours from the start; the communication and inclusion in all aspects of the job are exactly what we were hoping for and needed in a partnership, and everything that they have delivered has been done with honesty, integrity, and a team-first mentality. We couldn't have asked for better partners on this project that starts the next chapter for indus. We thank everyone who has set foot on this job site for their hard work, dedication, and input toward our vision of indus's future. Today was a great day for the whole team and our new community, and one of many celebrations to come at our new home!" said indus leadership. The 96,500 square-foot indus headquarters is being developed to support the company's relocation and expansion from Braintree to Middleborough, bringing its operations together in a purpose-built facility. The building will include office space for approximately 50 employees, training rooms, locker room facilities, warehouse storage for building materials, and dedicated space for complex machinery maintenance and painting, anchored by a 14-bay maintenance and repair shop which will accommodate the oversized trucks and equipment essential to indus's pavement repair operations. The project also required significant site preparation, as the site was a decommissioned cranberry bog. Extensive earthwork was required to bring the site to grade, and dynamic soil compaction was used to address the organic soils and achieve the bearing requirements necessary for construction. "We are proud to welcome indus to The Campus at Canopy Drive," said Phil Down, CEO of VMD Companies. "This project represents a significant investment in the Town of Middleborough and will bring good jobs and revenue to the community. VMD is pleased to have worked with the town and with Dacon Corporation to deliver indus a modern facility purpose-built for their operations. We congratulate the entire project team on reaching this construction milestone and look forward to delivering additional high-quality facilities to support the region's growing businesses." "Forty-one years in this business has taught me that the best projects aren't just buildings, they're stories. And this one has a story worth telling," said Kevin Quinn, President and CEO of Dacon Corporation. "Before a single beam could rise, our team had to engineer and transform what was once a cranberry bog into the foundation for a world-class facility. That kind of challenge is where Dacon thrives, and it's a testament to the craftsmanship and grit of every tradesperson, subcontractor, and field team member who showed up every day and made it happen." The project demonstrates the value of an integrated design-build approach in addressing complex site and operational requirements. Precast concrete panels were selected for the exterior building envelope, combining structural and architectural elements into a single prefabricated system that allowed for efficient assembly. Through close collaboration among Dacon's design and engineering teams, architectural and structural partners, and the project team, potential conflicts were identified and addressed early in the process, helping support a coordinated path from design through construction. Quinn continued, "No project like this gets built alone. The collaboration between Dacon, VMD Companies, and the entire indus team was exceptional from day one; a shared commitment to quality, precision, and getting it right. indus keeps the Northeast, and beyond our borders, moving, and it has been an honor to build a facility that supports that mission. I couldn't be prouder of everyone who made it possible." In recognition of the milestone, Dacon, indus and VMD Companies also presented a $12,500 donation through Dacon's Designed with Dignity  community giving program to Hannah B.G. Shaw Home,  supporting its mission to provide compassionate care and services for individuals and families in need. The contribution reflects Dacon's ongoing commitment to strengthening the communities where it builds and investing in organizations making a meaningful local impact. With structural work continuing to advance, the project team remains focused on safely delivering the next phase of construction while maintaining the quality, schedule, and collaborative approach that have defined the project.
