The expansion compliments Amcor’s comprehensive, industry-leading performance-based packaging portfolio, including leading-edge technologies within the retail and foodservice offerings, and will support customer transitions to the company’s recycle-ready, high-performance packaging solution, AmPrima Plus.

This investment underscores the company's continued commitment to invest in the future of dairy packaging products to enhance capabilities, leverage new technologies and innovation, and deliver meaningful expertise and insights to our customers.
