De Jong Packaging is expanding its current production and distribution site in De Lier, Holland. In order to meet the growing demand from its customers, the privately-owned corrugated manufacturer, together with real estate company WDP, is building a new multi-level distribution centre with storage and production space.
With the investment, De Jong Packaging is expanding its existing production capacity. WDP will handle this project as investor and developer. With WDP, De Jong Packaging has a partner who has a lot of experience in developing and managing storage and production locations. The old storage hall will make way for a hall with a double floor, meaning that the storage space will be retained, but lots of extra space gained.
Demolition and construction work on the Westerlee industrial estate has been underway for some time. The new building is being built with an eye for sustainability and it is expected to be completed in 2022.
Henk de Jong, owner of De Jong Packaging, said, “I am proud that after a long period of preparations we are allowed to start working on our new factory. When I walk across the construction site and look around me, I can already see the new machines. I can also imagine how the packaging will soon be loaded into the trucks here.”
The company has made a special construction page available on its website.
