Industrial Caulk & Seal completes Amazon distribution center
North Haven, CT Following the completion of a new Baltimore Amazon distribution center in 2018, Industrial Caulk & Seal (ICS) was awarded the 1 million s/f Amazon distribution center in North Haven and completed the facility in March.
“Amazon DC’s are challenging,” said ICS vice president Chip Marshall, “They represent the pinnacle in the large-scale distribution platform in the US. The Baltimore and the North Haven facility were no exception. These projects involved multiple scopes for Industrial Caulk and Seal and were completed under the management of two separate general contractors.”
ICS’s scope in the Baltimore facility included floor coverings throughout the building, polished concrete, epoxy finishes, and a comprehensive tooled caulking package. The recently completed facility included polished concrete, semi rigid joint filler, epoxy finishes, and another comprehensive tooled caulking package.
Amazon continues to build large distribution centers throughout the country and continues to evolve into one of the largest retailers in the U.S.
The Baltimore and the N. Haven facility were the next two regional distribution points in a long line of logistics that has allowed Amazon to put product on people’s doorstep in record time.
