The owners of Badger Wire have acquired the Pewaukee building the company is leasing and plan to expand by adding another production line there this year.

The 98,000-square-foot building, W226 N758 Eastmound Drive, was handed over by its previous owners to a California-based company that owned the mortgage on the building. Badger Wire president Bill Harwood said he heard it was up for sale and sealed the deal to buy it for $2.5 million in March.

Badger Wire has moved to a new location in Waukesha, Wisconsin.  Production began in the new 26,000 Sq. Ft., facility in the middle of February.  Badger is manufacturing our core product line in addition to a long list of UL/CSA rated products.

Badger Wire is proud to announce the addition of UL and CSA rated wire to their product offering. Come the first of the year (2008) Badger will be running MTW/AWM/TEW wire. MTW/AWM/TEW wire is primarily used as wiring in machine tools, appliances, and in multiple building applications as specified by the National Electrical Code. MTW/AWM/TEW conductors are stranded, soft-annealed copper insulated with a polyvinyl chloride (PVC), which makes it heat, moisture and oil-resistant. MTW/AWM/TEW wire is 1000 volt rated and has a VW-1 flame rating. The UL style numbers for the wire are 1015, 1056, 1060, 1063, 1228, 1230, 1231, 1275, 1276, 1283, 1284, 1426, and 10269.
