LCI Industries through its wholly owned subsidiary, Lippert Components, Inc., announced its Ranch Hand division has broken ground on a new, 400,000 square foot state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Seguin, Texas. The new facility will consolidate its two existing manufacturing plants located in Shiner and Beeville, Texas.
The new Seguin facility will approximately double the current manufacturing capacity of Ranch Hand’s grill guards and bumpers. The new facility will increase production capacity and will feature a state-of-the-art E-Coat line with a zirconium pre-treatment that will significantly increase corrosion resistance.
“This is a long-anticipated expansion for Ranch Hand allowing us to drastically increase service levels to our valued customers and significantly improve lead times,” says Shane McNallie, senior vice-president of sales, Lippert Automotive Division. The improvements to our finishing process are also an exciting enhancement which will expand Ranch Hand further into the Northern regions with unrivaled corrosion protection.”
Groundbreaking for the new facility started in September, with a targeted move-in date in the second quarter 2026. Ranch Hand leadership is working with their current team members in their Shiner and Beeville locations to ensure a smooth transition into the new facility.
