UK container glass manufacturer Beatson Clark is investing £16 million in increasing capacity and upgrading its facilities.
The Rotheram-based company, which supplies containers to brands such as Heinz and Baxters, has confirmed it will also offer a new apprentice training scheme.
The food industry accounts for half of Beatson Clark’s business, and the company plans to enter more niche markets. It will be increasing capacity in its furnaces and forming machines, as well as installing a new inspection facility.
