White Plains-based K&F Industries to build plant in Georgia

April
5

K&F Industries Holdings Inc., a White Plains-based maker of aircraft parts that plans to be acquired by a British company, said this morning that it plans to expand its Engineered Fabrics Corp. operations.

The company said that due to strong military demand for its products, it will build a 60,000-square-foot plant at its subsidiary’s headquarters in Rockmart, Ga. The new plant will help with increased production of de-icing equipment and upholstery for the inside of helicopters. The plant is scheduled to be completed by late summer.

K&F announced last month it planned to be acquired by Meggitt-USA Inc. for $27 a share in cash, or about $1.8 billion.

K&F stock closed yesterday at $26.82, down 8 cents.
