NuFarm's Chicago Heights Facility
Restoring the Legacy of NuFarm’s Chicago Heights Facility
Originally an ax handle factory and later a brewery, NuFarm’s Chicago Heights facility is steeped in history.
Founded in 1956 in Melbourne, Australia, as a supplier of phenoxy herbicides, NuFarm expanded to the U.S., establishing a site in Alsip, IL, in 2013, followed by the Chicago Heights location.
To preserve the character of this historic structure, RestoreWorks provided expert masonry restoration, including:
- Historic brick matching to seamlessly blend with the original structure
- Brick and concrete patching to repair aged and weathered surfaces
- Caulking for enhanced durability and weather resistance
Our craftsmanship ensures that the past remains a visible part of the future while reinforcing structural integrity.
