CUSTOM PET EXPANSION IN NORTH AMERICA

Amcor announces that its PET Packaging operation in North America is constructing a new custom PET blowmolding plant, dedicated to the supply of PepsiCo heat set containers, primarily for the Gatorade product.

The plant will be located in Wytheville, Virginia, adjacent to a recently constructed PepsiCo facility. Amcor’s new blowmolding operation is scheduled to be in production by March 2007 with an initial annual capacity in excess of one billion units. The overall project cost is US$80 million.
