“It’s an exciting new chapter in JW Aluminum’s story and a considerable progression in our strategic journey. As a domestic supplier, we’ve prevailed in an extremely challenging competitive environment. The outcome of this endeavor will empower us to produce superior product for our customers, provide increased value to our stakeholders and serve as a preferred supplier and employer for decades to come,” said Lee McCarter, JW Aluminum Chief Executive Office.

The company will increase production capacity by 175 million pounds, once expansion is complete. The expansion is expected to be completed in early 2020.

“This expansion has been years in the making and its undertaking would not be possible without the team’s depth of experience, a highly engaged workforce, local and national government support and our stakeholders’ commitment to our industry,” said Stan Brant, Chief Operating Officer.

JW Aluminum manufactures building and distributor sheet, fin stock, cable wrap, lithographic sheet (grade i and grade iii), auto foil and auto sheet for automotive heat shields, honeycomb foil and flexible packaging products. It operates plants in Mt. Holly, South Carolina; Russellville, Arkansas; St. Louis, Missouri and Williamsport, Pennsylvania.
