Richmond-based TemperPack, a manufacturer of sustainable packaging, announced Wednesday a $2 million expansion that’s expected to create 23 jobs.
The company plans to purchase production equipment that boosts capacity and creates products for new markets.
TemperPack, founded in 2015, will double its employee count within two years. New employees will be trained through the Virginia Economic Development Partnership’s Virginia Jobs Investment Program.
TemperPack’s insulation products help companies increase their cold-chain shipments.
“We take pride in re-engineering recycled, natural materials into innovative, powerful packaging that keeps food and pharma products fresh during transport, nationally and globally,” TemperPack co-founder, Charles Vincent, said in a statement.
