Doka USA, a leader in providing innovative formwork and safety solutions, has moved its U.S. corporate headquarters and Northeast branch office to a 23,000-square-foot space in Kenilworth, it announced Tuesday.
The move is part of the company’s “Pathway to Growth” strategy, Doka USA CEO Michael Kennedy said.
The company, formerly headquartered in Little Falls, feels its new 19-acre property at 251 Monroe Ave. will better serve customers’ formwork, shoring and scaffolding needs while providing greater capacities for preassembly, reconditioning, standard material stock, material delivery and returns, as well as training.

The property not only will house Doka’s Northeast New York Branch team and support office team, it also will include more than 10 acres of formwork storage capacity, reconditioning and preassembly, including even more expansion.
That expansion could mean more headcount. Kennedy said the new location not only will house Doka’s more than 150 employees, but also will provide additional space for new recruitments.
“We want our team to look forward to coming to Doka every single day,” he said. “Our new home is designed to create a collaborative environment in a spacious and modern setting to allow creative thinking, innovative ideas and engagement in teamwork.
“We take pride in providing the best solutions to contractors and will now be even more equipped to expand on this with the proper environment for our team.”
