Mondi will expand its manufacturing operations in Pennsylvania, creating approximately 170 new jobs over the next three years in Allegheny County. Mondi Bags USA’s new facility will relocate its existing manufacturing operations from their Oakdale, Pennsylvania, and Wellsburg, West Virginia facilities to a 200,000-square-foot Findlay Township industrial facility at 2201 Sweeney Drive in Clinton Commerce Park.
“The opening of our new Pittsburgh plant marks an important milestone for our paper bags business in North America,” said Rory Taylor, President Paper Bags Americas, Mondi. “By bringing production together in a modern facility, we are strengthening our ability to support customers with reliable, high‑quality paper bag solutions while responding more effectively to evolving customer needs across growing end markets.”
The expansion is happening with a funding proposal from the Department of Community and Economic Development (DCED) for a $1,036,000 Pennsylvania First grant, coordinated by the BusinessPA team.
DCED Secretary Rick Siger visited the new Mondi location in Clinton today, to celebrate the company’s expansion and tour its new facility.
“We’re proud to support Mondi as they create 170 new jobs and retain existing Pennsylvania jobs, grow their presence here in Allegheny County, and help drive economic growth in this region,” said Secretary Siger. “With direct access to major markets and a highly skilled workforce, the Commonwealth gives manufacturers the tools they need to succeed — which is why manufacturing is an important industry we focus on in our 10-Year Economic Development Strategy. Today’s announcement demonstrates that our strategy is working and delivering real results.”
