Industry News

Saica Group has strengthened its North American footprint with the inauguration of a new plant in Anderson, Indiana — the company’s second U.S. facility and a key step in its long-term expansion plan across the continent.

“This investment is proof that we are moving forward with our plans in the U.S., as we are convinced that we can provide products that will differentiate us in a crowded market,” said Susana Alejandro Balet, President and CEO of Saica Group, during the ceremony. “It reflects our deep commitment to delivering exceptional service, as we believe our knowledge and experience in the production of lighter-weight containerboard and corrugated packaging will bring high-performance packaging to the U.S. market while becoming more efficient in the use of materials.”

The 350,000-square-foot Saica Pack Anderson facility features state-of-the-art production technology designed to manufacture more than 110 million square meters of corrugated packaging annually. The investment reinforces Saica’s reputation for innovation and sustainability, with operations focused on lightweight materials that reduce environmental impact without compromising strength or performance.

As operations ramp up, Saica plans to share updates on milestones and community engagement initiatives in Indiana — signaling not just growth, but a lasting commitment to the local economy and to the future of sustainable packaging in North America.
