-- Metalworking, fabrication and testing equipment among highlights of South Carolina facility liquidation

ROEBUCK, S.C., March 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- A Tiger Group online auction opening on March 10 features tools, rolling stock and a wide array of metalworking, fabrication, plant support and testing and measurement equipment.

Assets in the sale are from the closed Roebuck plant of Xytel Corp., which is now in receivership. The company specialized in the engineering and design of pilot plants in sectors such as chemical processing, pharmaceuticals, biotech and food production.
