Ohio Steel Industries Inc. (OSI) is moving forward with plans to invest $7.2 million to buy and rehab a vacant manufacturing plant in Delaware, Ohio, and rehire the former employees for a plastic pipe and custom extrusion operation. Founded in 1958, the structural steel fabricator added an extrusion division — OSI Plastics — in 1975 and has been operating out of its headquarters site in Columbus and a facility in Pataskala with a total of 300,000 square feet of space and 200 employees. At first a sewer pipe producer, OSI Plastics expanded into products and profiles for utilities and telecommunications companies in the U.
