The 75,000ft\u00b2 Richmond site is already in operation.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The facility brings more than 40 million pounds of additional annual extrusion capacity to D6, with all existing employees expected to move over to the company.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The plant is configured to process a large share of the clean wash flake (CWF) generated at D6\u2019s Omni Recycling Center in Longview, Texas.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It also outlined that linking this extrusion capacity with its recycling operations \u201cstrengthens continuity across the platform \u2013 enhancing control of the value chain and enabling seamless conversion from reclaimed feedstock to finished product.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

D6 described the acquisition as another milestone in its multi-year programme to build out domestic circular infrastructure for packaging.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The addition of the Richmond facility improves operational resilience, bolsters security of material supply and expedites its capacity expansion plans to cope up with long-term demand from customers.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Good Natured Products focuses on bio-based and environmentally minded packaging and materials for food, consumer and industrial applications, with an emphasis on plant-based solutions.\u00a0<\/p>\n

D6 operates an integrated model spanning thermoforming, extrusion and recycling, producing food-grade packaging that incorporates post-consumer recycled (PCR) content.\u00a0<\/p>\n

D6 chief financial officer Louis Dominion commented: \u201cBy expanding our extrusion capacity and pairing it with our internal recycling capabilities, we\u2019re strengthening control from shelf to bale and back to shelf. Most importantly, it gives our customers greater surety of supply and supports their growing need for reliable, high-quality food-grade PCR packaging.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
