Some lucky members of Charter Mechanical's Arizona team recently enjoyed a night of team building at the new Andretti's Indoor Karting and Games in Chandler. This team has great cause for a night of celebration. As Charter’s Arizona operation continues to grow rapidly, we want to thank everyone on our Southwest team for their hard work and dedication to our success. Notably, among Charter’s milestones in Arizona is our new fabrication facility, a 42,000 square foot facility includes fabrication areas for low purity stainless tube, high purity stainless tube, high purity PVDF, PP, PVC, CPVC, strut assembly, and assembly of modules. Also located in this facility is our Arizona VDC team. To learn more about Charter Mechanical, our Arizona operation and our corporate culture, please visit www.chartermechanical.com.

Charter Mechanical’s Arizona team took time out on Friday to observe the final day of Safety Week and pose for a group photo. Since Charter opened our operation in Arizona two years ago, this growing team has been hard at work on one of our newest and rapidly growing projects.
