Wintipak invests 35 million euros: New jobs planned in Halle!

In a welcome turn for the economy in Saxony-Anhalt, Wintipak, a renowned Swiss packaging manufacturer, has laid the foundation stone for the expansion of its factory in the Starpark in Halle. With an impressive investment of 35 million euros, the company plans to expand production capacities and create new, crisis-proof jobs by 2028. This measure is not only important for Wintipak, but also a positive sign for the entire region, which should benefit greatly from this structural change.

Wintipak, formerly known as Greatview and headquartered in Winterthur, specializes in the production of aseptic cardboard packaging for liquid foods. The product range extends from juices and milk to drinking yogurt and cream cheese. With over 450 employees worldwide and more than 180 customers in over 70 countries, the company has established itself as one of the leading providers in this area. This expansion is a clear indicator that Wintipak is highly valued in terms of both quality and reliability.

Expansion with foresight

The decision to invest was influenced by several factors. By expanding production capacity, Wintipak not only wants to shorten delivery routes for European customers, but also meet the increasing demand for sustainable packaging solutions. Numerous representatives from the company, politicians and business representatives from the region were present at the laying of the foundation stone, underlining the trust in the Halle location. This is one of the first major Chinese investments in Saxony-Anhalt, and the regional economic partners see it as an excellent opportunity to strengthen the business location itself.

Since its founding in 2003, Wintipak has come a remarkable way. The company has not only established itself as a reliable partner for its customers, but has also become an important player in international competition for packaging solutions. With this expansion, Wintipak underlines its ambitions to continue to serve the innovation-driven market and at the same time to stimulate the job market in Halle.

A good hand for the future

“The expansion of the plant is a clear commitment to the region and a further step into the future,” said the company. The trust in the Halle location and the intention to create more jobs are significant signals that could also attract other companies. The expansive corporate strategy shows that innovative packaging technologies are not only trendy, but also have a promising future - there is something there that others should also consider.

Wintipak is not only a packaging company, but it is also a driving force for positive change in the region. The coming years will show how this expansion will impact the local economy.
