Tetra Pak to build closures factory in Thailand
Tetra Pak has announced it will build a new plant in Thailand producing closures for carton packaging.
The $33 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.
Michael Zacka, cluster vice president, Tetra Pak South Asia, East Asia and Oceania, said: “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.
