SOLON, Ohio — Swagelok Company, an approximately $2 billion developer and manufacturer of fluid systems products, will break ground later in September on a new 13,000-square-foot global headquarters and innovation center.

The new building will be located on the same site of the company’s current headquarters in Solon and it will house 250 current Swagelok associates, according to a news release from the company.
