Molded pulp products manufacturer EnviroPAK is set to increase capacity at one of its Earth City, Missouri manufacturing plants, with new investments.
By the end of 2012, the new capacity is expected to come into operation.
EnviroPAK president Rodney Heenan said demand for the company's eco-friendly and sustainable molded pulp product has increased over the past three years, interact.stltoday.com reported.
"Our investment in added capacity, in conjunction with our new Hot Press capability, will position our company to meet current and future customer needs," Heenan said.
The US-based company, which operates two plants in Earth City, Missouri, manufactures products for interior packaging protection using sustainable packaging materials.
