Maars North America (Maars), a global leader in architectural wall solutions, has announced that the company's first US-based production operation will be located in Mt. Pleasant. The $3 million investment will create more than 10 new jobs.
Headquartered in the Netherlands, Maars offers premium, customizable modular wall systems for commercial interiors including offices, hospitals, airports and universities.
Maars' new operation will serve as a fabrication plant aimed at meeting increasing market demand and streamlining distribution across North America.
"This expansion reflects our long-term commitment to supporting high-growth market segments and delivering excellence on key projects, said Ricardo Costa, vice president of Maars North America. "We are bringing the same standards of manufacturing excellence, process discipline and quality that have defined Maars for over 80 years.”
In addition to the manufacturing operations, the site will feature a state-of-the-art showroom for the company’s architectural solutions.
Charleston County Council Chairman Rev. Dr. Kylon Middleton is excited about how the investment will impact the local economy.
"Maars North America’s presence here highlights Charleston County’s strategic position on the East Coast, which is ideal for port access and distribution. We are delighted to welcome the company and the quality jobs they are bringing to our community, reinforcing our commitment to building a diverse and dynamic local economy," Middleton said.
Maars is active in more than 50 countries and supplies to a worldwide network of dealers. Mount Pleasant operations are expected to be online in the second quarter of 2026.
