Nefab, provider of sustainable industrial packaging and logistics, opened a hub to serve the southeastern United States in Braselton, Georgia, relocating from its previous site in Norcross. The $9.5 million investment triples the company’s footprint to 150,000 sq ft. The additional space also allows for expanded production capacity.
In the past year, Nefab has opened new facilities in Grand Blanc, Michigan, and Austin, Texas, and expanded capacity in Guadalajara, Mexico.
The Georgia facility will serve customers in the cloud, automotive and healthcare industries. Its operations include the production of wood and plywood crates, corrugated packaging and foam cushioning, along with kitting capabilities to provide complete packaging under one roof.
“This investment reflects both our confidence in the southeast market and our commitment to building local capacity,” said Patric Vestlund, executive vice president, Americas, Nefab Group. “We designed this facility to combine global best practices with the speed and flexibility our customers need here in the United States.”
By establishing this expanded site in Georgia, Nefab will be able to better serve customers throughout the southeast. The Braselton facility is designed to create 30 new manufacturing jobs, bringing the current headcount from 60 to 90.
“This site brings together our people, production and technology in a way that helps us work more efficiently to support customer demand,” said Robert Skinner, managing director southeast, Nefab Group. “Braselton’s strong logistics network and thriving business community make it an ideal base for our continued growth.”
Designed with sustainability in mind
The Braselton site incorporates electric production equipment, vehicle charging stations and energy-efficient systems. These features are aimed at lowering environmental impact and operational costs while supporting Nefab’s broader global sustainability goals.
