Novelis, Inc. hosted a ribbon cutting ceremony to celebrate the completion of a US$4.5 million investment at its facility in Warren, Ohio on April 15. The world leading flat-rolled aluminium producer and recycler announced this investment in state-of-the-art technology for the plant in November 2017 in order to offer greater versatility for pre-treatments, improve operational efficiency and reduce costs.
Novelis’ Warren facility has 75 employees. The plant specializes in coating application on rolled aluminium sheet. The sheets are then used for production of lids for the tops of aluminium beverage cans, producing more than one billion beverage can lids each month.
“It is an exciting day for our facility as we complete this upgrade,” said Paul Nelson, Plant Manager. “We are committed to shaping a sustainable world together, and this investment allows us to sustain our business here in Warren for many years to come.”
Mayor William “Doug” Franklin and representatives from the offices of Senator Sherrod Brown and Senator Rob Portman attended the celebration.
The Ohio senate members considered the investment as an important milestone in bringing business and investments into the community. They expressed pleasure at Novelis’ decision to invest on innovative manufacturing technologies in the region.
A leader in the aluminium beverage can sheet market, Novelis supplies to some of the biggest brands like Coca-Cola, AB InBev and PepsiCo.
