Berry Global Group, Inc. has begun expanding one of its stretch film manufacturing facilities in Lewisburg, Tennessee for completion by early 2024.

The 25,000 square foot expansion will support the growing demand for sustainable stretch films by creating space for three new cast lines, upgrading the capacity of the facilities existing post-industrial resin reprocessing system, and extending its rail spur for resin material handling.

Ten new jobs will be added following the expansion in the Lewisburg facility.

Berry will complete the installation of one cast line to support 20 million pounds of added capacity for ultra-high-performance films. By investing in the new cast line, through the advanced technology Berry will increase capacity in its most sophisticated stretch films. Upon installation of the first new line, Berry has plans to add two additional cast lines in the facility.

Plastic stretch films have been a longtime preferred solution for pallet load containment thanks to their strong, durable, and lightweight nature.
