German orthopedic and spinal devicemaker HG Medical is planning to establish a North American facility in Holland, Mich., with the aid of a $1.8 million grant from the state, according to a Dec. 13 post on LinkedIn.
The company specializes in the production of orthopedic titanium, high-grade stainless steel, and medical plastic implants for lower and upper extremities and spines for North American markets.
Currently, HG's only North American plant is in Huntington, W.Va., but it recently toured sites in Indiana, Minnesota and Tennessee before settling on Michigan, according to a Dec. 15 report from WGVU.
HG plans to make a $41 million capital investment in the facility, creating nearly 200 new jobs in the area.
