Alcoa Opens New Facility in North Carolina

Following a $6 million investment Alcoa’s Subassembly and Logistics business will open a new manufacturing plant in North Carolina.

The company, a part of Alcoa Wheel and Forged Products, provides wheel and tyre assemblies to the Freightliner Group, the largest heavy-duty truck manufacturer in North America and a leading manufacturer of medium-duty and specialised commercial vehicles.

The new facility is scheduled to begin production in mid-April. It will add to Alcoa’s presence in North Carolina, where it already has four other operating locations.
