New campus accelerates production capacity to meet growing demand for secure, energy-efficient MDCs designed for rapid deployment and the evolving needs of enterprise AI, telecommunications, and defense markets
FORT MYERS, Fla., Oct. 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Northstar Enterprise + Defense, a subsidiary of Northstar Technologies Group, Inc. (NTGI) and a leading developer and manufacturer of next-generation, secure, energy-efficient modular data centers (MDCs), is expanding its operations to a new 153,000-square-foot headquarters and production campus in Fort Myers, Fla. The move marks significant investment in the company's continued growth in the edge AI and modular infrastructure market, and its ability to meet rising demand for MDCs for enterprise AI, telecommunications, and defense applications.
The new headquarters, which is nearly 265% larger than its existing manufacturing facility in Bonita Springs, Fla., will significantly expand the company's production capacity. The new campus will help accelerate speed-to-market and construction of Northstar Enterprise + Defense's complete MDCs featuring the company's patented fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composite building system made from 100% U.S.-made recyclable glass. Leveraging an aerospace-grade structural material adapted for construction at scale, the company's FRP building systems and methods provide enhanced benefits for customers, including strength, durability, security, thermal efficiency, environmental properties, and more.
Company and Industry-Leading Growth
The move comes amid industry-leading growth for NTGI, which was founded in 2020 and is forecasting $450 million in recognized revenue for 2026, up from $11.5 million in 2025, with committed sales projected to reach $1.3 billion this year. The company has grown to a team of more than 100 across its operations and continues to hire to support its expanding production capacity.
"Today's data center demands require a different approach to how infrastructure is designed, built and deployed," said Paul Inglese, Chief Executive Officer of NTGI. "Our MDCs use our advanced composite material to deliver unique benefits over traditional building materials such as concrete and steel. Combined with a modular design, we're able to provide a more adaptable approach to building and scaling critical infrastructure. The record growth we're experiencing reflects the value customers place on this flexibility, high performance, and efficiency, and our new headquarters will enable us to meet the industry's growing demand."
Advanced Composite MDCs Built for Performance, Flexibility and Rapid Deployment
Built with NTGI's FRP composite materials and designed for demanding environments, Northstar Enterprise + Defense's MDCs are purpose engineered for enterprise, telecom, and U.S. defense applications, and can deploy in as little as 90 days. The MDC product line offers F5 tornado and Category 5 hurricane-rated enclosures, advanced insulation and thermal performance, and corrosion-resistant, low-maintenance construction. Helical piling foundations support rapid installation, while IoT-enabled monitoring and predictive maintenance capabilities help customers manage performance throughout the life of the facility.
The company's MDCs are up to 30% lighter than aluminum structures, enabling deployment in locations that can be challenging for traditional data center construction, including rooftops and sites without prepared foundations. Designed for recyclability and net-zero carbon manufacturing, the systems can also help reduce embodied emissions compared with traditional steel or concrete structures.
Northstar Enterprise + Defense is also advancing its MDC platform through strategic collaborations with industry leaders including Owens Corning, Leidos, Dell Federal, Eaton, Carahsoft, Duos Edge AI, Bridgepointe Technologies, 10X Capital, and Netceed. The relationships bring together expertise across advanced building materials, edge AI, connectivity and technology infrastructure, helping Northstar Enterprise + Defense to expand the capabilities of its MDCs while creating more integrated solutions for customers.
Continued Expansion
The new headquarters is the latest step in Northstar Enterprise + Defense's broader expansion strategy. The company is evaluating an additional facility of similar size in the same industrial park, potentially acquiring the space by the end of the year, and will maintain its manufacturing operations in Bonita Springs, Fla. Northstar Enterprise + Defense is also evaluating further U.S. expansion in the Northeast, including the Atlantic City, N.J. area, and in Texas over the next year.
