ARCELORMITTAL BUILDING SOLUTIONS BRINGS NORTH AMERICAN HQ TO MACON-BIBB COUNTY, GEORGIA

ATLANTA, GA – Governor Brian P. Kemp announced that ArcelorMittal Building Solutions will establish its North American headquarters and a new manufacturing facility in Macon-Bibb County. The initial investment will bring roughly $57 million and up to 70 new jobs to the community, with plans for an additional $50 million in investment and as many as 70 more jobs over the next several years.

“As Georgia continues to break economic records, ArcelorMittal Building Solutions’ new manufacturing facility comes at the right time to help meet growing demand across the state,” said Governor Brian Kemp. “Their decision to establish the North American headquarters in Macon-Bibb is also further proof that Georgia is the best place for business and opportunity, well beyond our state borders.”

ArcelorMittal Building Solutions designs and manufactures high-performance building envelope systems used to insulate and protect warehouses, factories, data centers, and commercial buildings. Its insulated panels combine structural strength, thermal efficiency, and fast installation, helping customers reduce construction time and energy consumption. ArcelorMittal Building Solutions serves a broad range of construction markets through more than 50 manufacturing and office locations worldwide.
The new operation will build on ArcelorMittal’s longstanding presence in the United States, which includes world-class steelmaking, finishing, manufacturing, research and development, and sales/support locations that employ more than 3,200 people across nine states.

“This investment in Macon, Georgia, marks the launch of ArcelorMittal Building Solutions in North America,” said Jean Christophe Kennel, CEO of ArcelorMittal Building Solutions. “We see strong and sustained demand for high-performance building solutions, driven by growth in logistics, manufacturing, and data center infrastructure.”

“We are bringing advanced insulated panel manufacturing closer to our customers, with a focus on speed, reliability, and consistent quality. The facility will operate with state-of-the-art production technology and support a broad range of building applications across the region,” continued Kennel. “We selected Macon for its workforce, industrial base, and the strong support from local and state partners. This investment reflects ArcelorMittal Building Solutions’ long-term ambition to build a sustainable and competitive presence in the U.S. market.”

The new ArcelorMittal Building Solutions headquarters and manufacturing operation, which will also include a new training facility, will be located at the Airport South site in Macon. Construction is expected to begin in the second half of 2026, with operations targeted to commence in the second half of 2027, subject to customary permitting and approvals.
