Beverage packaging manufacturer Crown has made public that its Brazilian subsidiary Crown Embalagens plans to build its sixth beverage can facility in the Latin American nation.

The new plant will produce two-piece aluminium cans in various sizes and will have two lines, both of which are forecasted to begin production next year.
Crown Embalagens’ upcoming facility will be located in Minas Gerais state in southeast Brazil, to grab the growing demand in the region for beer and soft drink cans.
Djalma Novaes, President of Crown’s Americas division, said: “Brazil is an important growth market for us and our partner, Évora S.A. This expansion will help meet the country’s increased demand for beverage cans and demonstrates the Crown’s continuing commitment to grow with our customers.”
“The aluminium beverage can is perfect for the Brazilian market; it is recyclable and sustainable, is shipped easily and most efficiently preserves the quality of the beverage product for the ultimate consumer.”
When fully operational, the plant will have an annual production capacity of 2.4 billion cans. This will result to expand Crown’s production capacity in Brazil to 13.30 billion cans per year.
In 2020, Crown announced plans for a new beverage can manufacture facility in Kentucky to support the rise in demand for beverage cans in North America.
