US: Johns Manville (JM) plans to build a new blowing wool production line at its Winder glass wool plant in Georgia. Construction is expected to start early in 2026 and the new line will be operational in mid-2027. When this project is complete, JM will employ more than 350 people in Winder.

“Climate Pro insulation continues to see strong growth and demand in the market,” said Bob Wamboldt, president and CEO of Johns Manville. The new production line is intended to give JM easier access to Central and East Coast markets in the country.
