Crown’s Expansion in Ponta Grossa, Brazil, Will Allow for the Manufacture of 3.6 Billion Cans per Year.

Crown Holdings has announced the addition of a third high-speed production line at its beverage can manufacturing plant located in Ponta Grossa, Paraná State, Brazil. This expansion responds to the growing demand for both alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages in the southern region of the country.
