Article CROSSVILLE, TENN.—As part of a major $10.5 million expansion, Crossville is about to take ownership of a new 180-metric ton, SACMI PH7500 press that is being shipped from Italy.

“Crossville is in the midst of the most significant expansion project in terms of production capability since its founding three decades ago,” said John Smith, president and general manager. “The SACMI PH7500 will be the largest and only tile press of its kind in the Americas. By June, Crossville will have the technology and equipment that will enable us to offer more sustainable and innovative products than ever before. We will soon be able to produce extra-large tile, 24 x 36-inches, that is double-filled, rectified, modular, honed and certified to have 20% recycled content.”
