Tetra Pak to open closures production facility in Asia
The $25 million investment will be capable of producing more than 3 billion closures every year.
Tetra Pak, Switzerland, announced plans to build a new plant at its Rayong site in Thailand, dedicated to producing closures for carton packaging.
The $25 million investment, which will create around 60 jobs when it opens early in 2018, will be capable of producing more than 3 billion closures every year.
“The new production facility will ensure faster delivery for customers across the region, offering a broad range of exciting closures that meet consumer demand for functionality and convenience,” says Michael Zacka, cluster vice president, Tetra Pak South Asia, East Asia and Oceania (SAEA&O). “It’s another sign of the confidence we have in this region, and our commitment to putting our customers’ success at the heart of everything we do. Together, with the packaging material factory that we will open in Vietnam in 2019, our fourth in southern Asia alone, our ability to serve customers in this exciting part of the world is growing stronger all the time.”
The new production facility will be located within the company’s existing straws and strips plant in Rayong.
