Vienna/Weinburg, May 8, 2025
Yesterday in Weinburg, Lower Austria, the expansion of the rolling mill at Constantia Flexibles' main plant, Constantia Teich, was officially inaugurated. Among the honored guests were Doris Schmidl, member of the Lower Austrian state parliament, Vice President Chamber of Commerce of Lower Austria (WKNÖ) Thomas Salzer, District Commissioner Josef Kronister, and the mayors of the surrounding municipalities.
This expansion of the rolling mill promotes a more sustainable, local aluminum foil production and strengthens the stability of European supply chains, enabled by the €50 million investment from the world's third-largest manufacturer of flexible packaging. An additional 30 million euros have been invested in a new lacquering line in recent years.
"With this investment, we are making a clear statement for growth, innovation, and sustainability. By expanding the rolling mill, we are increasing aluminum foil production by around 30 percent up to 90,000 tons of aluminum foil per year, making our largest plant in the Group also one of the largest integrated producers in Europe," emphasized Daniel Winkler, EVP Aluminum Division & Group Sustainability at Constantia Flexibles. "At the same time, we are making a significant contribution to decarbonization, avoiding approximately 100,000 tons of CO₂ emissions."
