Chemical manufacturer AU Solutions has broken ground on a new facility in Newton, Iowa. The company, which produces chemicals used by farmers to protect and grow crops, will create 22 jobs with its first plant in the state.
The new facility is located at the Newton Rail Park on North 33rd Avenue East. Community leaders say the site’s designation as an Iowa Certified Site offers opportunities for growth, with its ‘shovel-ready’ status and proximity to the interstate and city airport.
