OUR STORY
A Shreveport factory.
A new generation of work.
For more than 60 years. the plant on Benton Kelly Street has been part of Shreveport’s manufacturing story. Once home to Beaird's pressure vessel and other industrial-structure production, the facility now supports a new generation of communications and energy infrastructure.
Module X Solutions carries that industrial heritage forward through the skill of its people and the systems they build.

The vision that started MXS.
Steve Schoonover founded Module X Solutions in 2014 after decades of helping shape the modular manufacturing industry. He led and helped scale Fibrebond beginning in 1982 and later founded Cellxion, where the business expanded to include integrating electronic and communications systems inside factory-built shelters.
MXS brought that experience, established customer relationships, and an experienced team together in Shreveport. Steve’s vision gave an established industrial site a new purpose—and a foundation for the work happening here today.
THE WORK TODAY
Building the infrastructure behind the digital future.
Today, our teams build the structures supporting fiber connections between data centers and the power conversion systems connecting solar and battery storage to the electric grid.
We bring engineering, fabrication, equipment integration, and project-specific factory testing together to prepare systems for field installation. The work connects the technology people use every day with the skilled people and physical infrastructure thatmake it possible
THE X FACTOR
The X Factor has always been our people.
Some associates once worked in the plant for Beaird and returned to work for MXS. Others have been here since 2014. Their experience, craftsmanship, and determination connect this factory’s history to its future.
CARRYING THE STORY FORWARD
That future includes continued investment in our people and production capabilities. Module X University, our developing on-site training center, is part of that commitment. Through Service on Purpose, our team also supports local students, families, and community organizations.
As the work inside this factory evolves, our commitment to the people who build it—and the Shreveport community they call home—continues.
