Smurfit Kappa opened new plant in Tijuana, Mexico

\Smurfit Kappa has opened a new plant in Tijuana, Mexico. The new folding carton plant will strengthen the company’s footprint in the Baja California region and neighbouring Northern Mexico states, as the company says in the press release received by Lesprom Network.

The new Tijuana plant, which began operating last month, uses state-of-the-art technology to produce folding carton packaging solutions including boxes and trays. Diverse folding techniques are used to produce both flat and pre-glued products that meet customer’s needs in both the supply chain and retail environment.

Operating in Mexico for over 40 years, Smurfit Kappa produces an innovative range of sustainable packaging solutions for sectors including consumer electronics, industrial, medical and food.

The new Tijuana plant is the third of its type in Mexico, where it already operates one folding plant in Cerro Gordo and another in Naucalpan.
