Maxter Healthcare plans to build a $90 million factory as part of its 215-acre campus in Brazoria County.
The Malaysia-based healthcare supplier registered the new project on May 15 as part of its $500 million campus in the small town of Rosharon 25 miles southeast of Sugar Land. The new facility, dubbed “Building 2” in the state filing, is expected to span 318,000 square feet. It will house a manufacturing factory for the healthcare supplier.
Missouri-based design firm GMA Architects is spearheading the facility’s design, according to the filing. The new factory is expected to be completed in March 2024.
Arco Murray, a Chicago-based design firm, was tapped by Maxter to design the multi-acre campus Two other Maxter Healthcare developments are currently in construction under the name Project Panther. The dual projects, which initially broke ground in August, are a 100,000-square-foot administration’s office and a similarly sized warehouse building complete with additional office space for the 1,200 workers the move is expected to supply to the county upon completion.
At full buildout, the Rosharon project is expected to span eight buildings. This will be the first American-based manufacturing site for Maxter Healthcare, the world’s largest supplier of PPE supplies. Its parent company Supermax opened its first American distribution headquarters in Illinois in 2012. Malaysian billionaire Stanley Thai, Supermax Chairman, previously told Forbes that the company allocated $350 million for the construction of the expansive Greater Houston project.
