InPro to Purchase Wiza Building in Muskego Business Park

, headquartered on Apollo Drive in the Muskego Business Park, has purchased the former WIZA Industries, LLC building. The 200,000 sq. ft. facility that held the machine shop is located across from InPro’s main plant. 

WIZA had filed for Chapter 128 protection in 2009 and was acquired by World Class Manufacturing of Weyauwega, Wis., in 2010, according to a release from InPro. The building was in foreclosure when it was acquired by InPro for an undisclosed amount.

“This acquisition sets us up for a return to a center point in Muskego for our Wisconsin operations,” said Phil Ziegler, InPro’s president. “Our goal is to eventually bring our Decorative Surfaces, Engineered Metals and Marketing team back to Muskego.”

InPro moved those operations to a leased facility on Ryerson Rd. in New Berlin in 2009.

“There just wasn’t a facility of sufficient size near our main building at that time,” Ziegler said.  “Now we have that space right next door.”  

The expansion would seem to be contrary to recent economic trends, but Ziegler pointed out that Inpro has hit or exceeded their sales targets, and "acquisitions like the WIZA building show that we’re on a solid path for growth.”

InPro manufactures building products, including door and wall protection, decorative surfaces, cubicle track and privacy curtains and signage.
