Purpose & Explanation
Keltec, LLC is requesting a 50% income tax credit for 10 years. The company, currently located in Twinsburg, Ohio, will relocate their headquarters operations to 5581 Hudson Industrial Parkway. The company is currently spread across three buildings owned by the business owner, paying less than market rate rents. The business leaders conducted a site selection process to identify opportunities to consolidate operations to one building. The economic development incentive has been requested to assist the business as they transition to market rate rents in the relocation.
The company is a leading manufacturer of compressed air and gas filtration solutions, providing a comprehensive range of high-quality products for industrial applications. Keltec, LLC was purchased by a private equity firm in March 2024 and has since experienced significant growth through acquisition and organic business development. Keltec, LLC. will employ 175 staff at the facility.
