Idex Corp. is consolidating its footprint in the Bay State into a single plant in Middleborough.
The massive, Illinois-based medical device component parts maker broke ground on an 80,000-square-foot manufacturing plant in Middleborough’s Campanelli Business Park for its Idex Health & Science division.
That segment, which accounts for more than 20 percent of its parent company’s total sales, pulled in about $331 million in sales last year.
Idex Health & Sciences operates under several different banners, including the two it plans to consolidate in Massachusetts: Sapphire Engineering in Pocasset and Isolation Technologies in Hopedale. Those divisions make pumps and high-pressure liquid chromatography products.
Idex acquired Isolation Technologies in 2007 for $30 million.
The company plans on adding 15 positions to its 175-employee workforce in Massachusetts, the capecodbusiness website reported.
