CCL Technology Development VP Al Green said: "CCL is pleased to expand its operations in Clinton and build on the long history the site has with the Laurens County community. This project is a result of our growing global businesses in a number of important expanding markets.
"The Clinton site, its management team and the skilled and reliable workforce, made it an easy decision to help grow the Southern U.S. corridor for many of the products we manufacture globally, and to leverage the unique capabilities of the Clinton site."
Work under the expansion includes the addition of 36,000ft2 space to the existing facility, which offers highly engineered component products and printing for the electronics, automotive, consumer battery, and beverage markets.
Majority of the construction is expected to be completed by the end of 2015.
