Britvic, the UK-based non-alcoholic drinks firm, has announced that it is investing £26.9 million ($36.2 million) in its Rugby factory, creating 20 new jobs.
The company will install a fourth canning line to produce recyclable 330ml cans for soft drinks range, increasing capacity by a further 18% per cent.
“This new, state-of-the-art canning line will be a fantastic boost for Britvic’s Rugby facility which continues to produce recyclable cans for some of our most popular brands”, said Paul Graham, Britvic GB managing director. “We look forward to using this additional capacity as a platform to drive further innovation”.
The first cans are expected to be made in November, with the line set to be operational in 2022.
