Envases Group, a world leader in the production of packaging materials, plans to open an aluminum can production and distribution enter in Waco.
This would be the first such facility for Envases. As of now, the facility is planned to open in late 2021.
“Our decision to establish this plant in Waco is the result of an extensive and thoughtful review process," Javier Pietrini, vice president of the Aluminum Division, said. "Waco is an ideal location for Envases from a logistical perspective as a procurement point, from a quality standpoint due to the highly qualified workforce, and from an accessibility perspective for our clients."
The company went through an exhaustive search to find the right location for this facility. Waco was chosen due to its location within Texas, large manufacturing workforce, and the education institutions nearby that will help to establish a long-term source of talent for the company.
