The EUR 130 million investment will boost Hydro's annual capacity for aluminium car body sheet from 50,000 tonnes today to 200,000 tonnes.
Hydro is also investing EUR 45 million at its Neuss primary plant, adding a large facility to shred, sort and recycle used aluminum products, in particular used beverage cans.
The new car body sheet production line in Grevenbroich is expected to start operations in the second half of 2016.
