UFlex’s Asepto bets on Egypt to build global aseptic packaging hub

Noida based flexible packaging major UFlex’s aseptic liquid packaging business, Asepto is shifting from an India-led export model to a multi-location global manufacturing strategy, with its new $126-million plant in Egypt expected to become a key production hub for markets across Europe, Africa, the Gulf, the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) and the Americas.

The 30-acre greenfield facility at Ain Sokhna, located close to the Suez Canal, is currently undergoing customer trials and is expected to begin commercial production by the end of calendar 2026. Once operational, it will add 12 billion aseptic packs a year to Asepto’s capacity, taking its combined India and Egypt capacity to 24 billion packs annually.
