Omega Plastics to expand in Clinton; invest $8.2 million, add 80 jobs

Omega Plastics will expand its corporate headquarters in Clinton, investing $8.2 million and adding 80 new positions in Anderson County, state officials and company executives announced Wednesday.

The expansion will add an extra 85,000 square feet, more than doubling the company’s current facility in the Carden Farm Industrial Park, a press release said. It said Omega Plastics is a world leader in “plastics extrusion molding solutions for prototype and low-volume production.”

The company supplies clients across the globe in medical, consumer packaging, automotive, and security and safety productions.

“The importance of incumbent industries in Tennessee cannot be understated,” said Bill Hagerty, Tennessee Department of Economic and Community Development commissioner. “Expansions by companies like Omega Plastics reaffirm the business-friendly climate our state offers and demonstrate our competitiveness in today’s global marketplace. I appreciate Omega Plastics’ continued investment in Anderson County and its quality workforce.”

More information will be added as it becomes available.
