End user weekly recap: SIG invests €8.4 million to expand its carton packaging facility in Brazil

EDITED BY : 5MINS READ

The aluminium end-user sector has seen significant developments this week, with SIG, a Swiss company specializing in aseptic packaging, investing €8.4 million to expand its carton packaging facility in Campo Largo, Brazil. The latest expansion will increase the facility's annual production capacity to 5.2 billion units from 1 billion packages in 2011. The plant operates 24/7 and employs about 500 people. Brazil is a significant market for carton packaging and ranks third in UHT milk consumption worldwide. A report released on October 4, 2023, suggests that India has the potential to become a prominent global automotive center by achieving a $1 trillion export-driven industry by 2035. The report from Arthur D. Little recommends that India must enhance its capabilities in innovation and technology to establish itself as a trusted and competitive center for vehicle manufacturing. Fanta and Ball Corporation have launched a mystery-flavoured canned drink for Halloween. The can undergoes a colour change to pink as it cools and the flavour profile becomes more pronounced. The drink is accompanied by a 5D sipping experience to enhance the Halloween ambience.
