Hulamin completes R500m investment to boost canbody production

Hulamin Limited has completed its R500 million capital investment to expand canbody stream capacity. The project, which began in 2022, concluded with a critical widening of the cold rolling mill during a 25-day shutdown in July.

The upgrade enables Hulamin to process wide-width canbody coils that were previously imported. The company will focus on product qualification with customers through H2 2025, targeting commercial readiness by end-Q1 2026.
