WARSAW — Banner Medical’s new 43,000 square foot building on Polk Drive in Technology Park is nearing completion. The first groups of new employees have been hired and are undergoing training in the company’s Illinois facility. According to CEO and President Mark Redding, production should commence by June. “We are very excited about opening Banner Medical in Warsaw,” he noted. “The facility gives Banner the opportunity to be within close proximity of its largest customers.”
