Detex Commences Building Expansion With Official Ceremony

Detex Corporation marked a significant milestone with a ceremony commemorating the official kickoff of its building expansion project. The event, held on February 9, 2024, brought together members of the New Braunfels Chamber of Commerce, community leaders, Detex employees and members of the public to celebrate the beginning of an exciting new chapter in the organization’s growth.

The expansion, planned to accommodate the growing demands of the Detex and Designed Security Inc. (DSI) family, will more than double the square footage of the existing building located in New Braunfels. With plans for many environmentally friendly features, including rainwater catchment, LED and natural lighting and added tree cover, Detex is embarking on a journey to better serve its customers and advance its mission for years to come.

“We are thrilled to commence work on our expanded facilities and mark this momentous occasion in the history of Detex,” said Ken Kuehler, President and CEO of Detex Corporation. “This expansion not only demonstrates our unwavering dedication to maintaining excellence in life safety and security, but also reflects our steadfast commitment to adapting to the changing needs of our community.”

Detex wishes to extend its gratitude to the city of New Braunfels and to all those who have supported the Company and who have contributed to the planning and preparation of the expansion project.
