Brazil: Trevo Drywall plans to invest US$25m in an expansion to its Juazeiro do Norte gypsum wallboard plant, scheduled for commissioning in 2025. This will initially raise the plant's capacity to 20Mm²/yr, and subsequently to 30Mm² by 2026. The expanded plant will be equipped with a new enterprise resource planning system to assist with the increased automation of its operations. Trevo Drywall also plans to build a second plant, the location of which is subject to on-going evaluations.
Chief financial officer Gabriel Rodrigues Granja de Alencar said "We will also strengthen compliance tools and soon announce the creation of a people development programme."
