June 18, 2026 - The Rockwall Economic Development Corporation ("REDC") announced the expansion of Pratt Industries corrugated box plant in Rockwall, Texas.
According to the REDC, the expansion will add approximately 346,000 square feet to the existing facility resulting in a total building size of approximately 736,000 square feet. The project is expected to bring $90 million in capital investment along with the creation of 100 new jobs.
Pratt initially opened its state-of-the-art corrugating facility on approximately 30 acres in the Rockwall Technology Park in 2017.
"Pratt Industries' continued investment in Rockwall is a testament to the strength of our partnership and the success they've experienced here," said REDC President Matt Wavering. "This expansion not only represents a major capital investment, but also the creation of high-quality jobs and advanced manufacturing capabilities."
Pratt Industries Executive Chairman, Anthony Pratt, commented, "We are excited to expand our operations in Texas. The growth of our Rockwall box plant will bring advanced technology and increased capacity directly to our customers, while complementing our existing manufacturing, recycling and transportation network across the state and region. This expansion further drives our commitment to investing in recycling, sustainability, and American manufacturing jobs."
Construction and equipment installation timelines for the expansion are expected to proceed in phases, with full operations anticipated following completion of the new corrugator line and facility enhancements.
The Rockwall Economic Development Corporation actively works to retain, expand, and recruit industry to Rockwall, Texas. The mission of the REDC is to broaden and diversify the tax base through new business attraction, land acquisition and development, progressive infrastructure, corporate business expansion, and job creation.
