TERRE HAUTE, Ind. (AP) β€” A home building products maker has reopened a western Indiana plant as it looks to meet anticipated increased demand in the Midwest.

Houston, Texas-based fiber cement siding manufacturer Allura announced the update Thursday about the plant in Terre Haute. The facility employs 60 workers and previously closed in 2014.
