Interplex opens cold forging hub at Ayrsley

Listen to this article

Singapore-based engineering and manufacturing solutions provider Interplex has opened a new Charlotte office at Ayrsley to support its cold forging business, and eDiscovery firm Consilio has renewed its full-floor lease at the mixed-use community in Steele Creek.

Interplex operates more than 30 manufacturing plants in 13 countries and provides advanced application development and manufacturing solutions for complex mechanical and electro-mechanical components and assemblies.

The 1,096-square-foot Interplex office at the Charleston Row building will be a hub for the company’s cold forging business, including tool design, engineering, product development, sales and operations teams. Interplex chose Ayrsley due to its proximity to Charlotte Douglas International Airport, key customers and the talent pool in Steele Creek.

Consilio, which provides eDiscovery, document review and legal consulting services, has been a tenant at Ayrsley since 2009 and recently renewed its 19,578-square-foot lease for the third floor of the One Kings Parade building. Consilio supports multinational law firms and corporations using innovative software, cost-effective managed services and deep legal and regulatory industry expertise.

Ayrsley’s office space is now 95 percent occupied, and earlier this year New Forum began marketing Two Silver Crescent, an 80,000-square-foot Class A office building at the intersection of Ayrsley Town Boulevard and Sessions Street.

William Hodges, vice president and broker in charge at New Forum, represented the landlord on the lease transactions. Spencer Hawkins, formerly with Trinity Partners and now with CBRE, represented Interplex, and Keith Bell with Cushman & Wakefield represented Consilio locally.
