VIP Structures transformed a former retail space into the new home of N.E.T. & Die, a third-generation, family-owned and operated CNC machine shop. Successfully re-purposing, an outdated retail space into a modern manufacturing facility.
The 92,000 SF structure required major upgrades to support heavy machinery and advanced operations. Key improvements included structural enhancements, specialized flooring, and new office buildouts. Approximately 50,000 SF is now dedicated to manufacturing, significantly improving workflow and material staging.

A major infrastructure upgrade involved replacing half the existing floor with 8-inch reinforced concrete to support CNC equipment and ensure long-term stability. MEP engineering played a critical role, including the design of a new compressed air system, process coolant distribution for CNC machines, and upgraded electrical service to power equipment throughout the production floor. These systems were tailored to meet the demands of precision manufacturing and support future scalability.

The former garden center was re-imagined as office space and now houses the main entrance, admin areas, and a full kitchen break room that opens to the former outdoor area. A central operations office and quality control lab were also added to streamline oversight and ensure product quality.
By implementing strategic renovations and structural enhancements, VIP was able to convert an underutilized commercial property into a high-performance machine and die shop, securing a bright future for N.E.T. & Die in its expanded, cutting-edge facility.
