September 13, 2023 Sofidel to Invest $185M in Ohio Production Facility

Sofidel has announced plans to invest more than US$185 million to expand production capabilities of its Circleville, Ohio facility.

Among other improvements, the expansion project will include the construction of a new building that will house the Valmet DCT 200 paper mill machine. The additional equipment, which is expected to be operational by the end of 2025, will increase the plant’s production capacity by more than 50%.

“Last year, we celebrated our first 10 years on the U.S. market: 10 years of development and growth. Thanks in part to the close-knit and capable U.S. team and our excellent relationships with institutions, from the state of Ohio to the local communities that have always supported us, we open our second decade of operations in the United States with this new investment in the Circleville plant. Today, Sofidel America has production sites in six states, and this operation will enable us to further meet the growing demand from our customers and continue to fuel our growth in this country,” said Luigi Lazzareschi, Sofidel CEO.
