Weidenhammer: New Plant in England
The Weidenhammer Packaging Group (WPG), Hockenheim, Germany, will be inaugurating their newest plant in Bradford, West Yorkshire, England. Construction work on the 11,000 square-meter production facility – where the manufacturing of composite cans is already in production – was completed in July. The company invested more than £10 million (approx. EUR 11.5 million) in the expansion of its Weidenhammer UK subsidiary. In early 2012, the supplier of composite cans, composite drums and plastic containers plans to launch production of high-quality plastic packaging based on In-Mold Labeling technology in Bradford.
