Firm invests $15M in Springdale plant to make facial wipes for Wal-Mart

A coffee filter and wet wipes manufacturing company said Thursday it has invested $15 million to expand its Springdale plant, which will produce a new facial wipes line for Wal-Mart.

Wisconsin-based Rockline Industries said it expects the expansion will add about 50 manufacturing jobs.

The production of the new facial wipes line is transferring from Europe to the company’s Springdale plant.

Rockline Industries last year purchased a 240,000-square-foot plant in Russellville, an expansion which allowed the company to accommodate increased production at the Springdale plant, Rockline Industries President Randy Rudolph said in a statement.
