WESTFIELD Mestek, a manufacturer of specialty heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems, bought the baseboard heating business of Slant/Fin and plans to move production to Westfield in the next year, hiring 50 to 60 additional employees in the process.
“It’s probably the single biggest change we have had, or are going to have in Westfield,” said plant manager Peter Letendre.
Mestek will take over Slant/Fin’s line of baseboard heating equipment. Slant/Fin, based in Greenvale, New York, is retaining other aspects of its business.
