R.H. Ghan Commercial Properties in Fort Smith Arkansas has learned that
Rockline Industries, the largest producer of coffee filters and private
label baby wipes in North America, announced it had purchased the 1.2
million-square-foot Today’s Plastics’ building in Booneville. The
company will invest $5 million and create more than 200 jobs over the
next five years as it opens a wet wipes manufacturing and distribution
facility. The Booneville wet wipes plant will be the second in the
state, as Rockline already operates a Springdale facility with about
500 employees. Once up and running, Arkansas will be the leading wet
wipes manufacturer in the nation.
Rockline
was established in 1976 and started as a coffee filter manufacturer.
From there, it added other products and now manufactures and
distributes a number of coffee products, such as stir sticks and
cleaners, as well as a variety of wet wipes. Rockline will hire 10 to
20 employees to start, and training will take place in Springdale.
From there, it will add more workers as more lines start. R.H. Ghan
