Nucor Corp. announced Tuesday it will invest $60 million to expand its Towers & Structures facility in Trinity. The project will add 60 jobs and increase production of steel poles and other steel structures, according to the company.
“Utilities across the country are making significant investments to strengthen and modernize the nation’s power grid,” said Leon Topalian, chair and chief executive officer of Nucor Corp. “By expanding our Trinity facility adjacent to our Decatur sheet mill, we can combine American-made steel with highly efficient manufacturing to better serve our utility customers and support their long-term infrastructure needs. This investment also builds on Nucor’s longstanding commitment to Alabama and its communities.”
The Trinity facility began operations in 2025.
“Nucor has deep roots in Alabama, and we are proud to continue growing our operations in Trinity,” said Laurent De Mey, vice president and general manager of Nucor Towers & Structures. “This expansion will allow us to increase production, better serve our utility customers and create high-quality jobs in the region. We appreciate the support of Governor [Kay] Ivey, the Alabama Department of Commerce, Morgan County, the city of Decatur, our local chambers of commerce and the many state and community leaders who have helped make this investment possible.”
Nucor employs more than 2,700 people at 12 locations across Alabama.
