EAM-Mosca Expands Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, Operations

06/30/2023
EAM-Mosca Corp., a provider of automatic strapping systems used in commercial packaging, plans to expand its manufacturing operation in Luzerne County, Pennsylvania. The $20.6 million project is expected to create 50 jobs within the next three years.

The company will renovate its existing facility, located at 675 Jaycee Drive in Hazle Township, and purchase new machinery and equipment.

“We are grateful for the support from Governor Shapiro and the Governor’s Action Team, who recognize that EAM-Mosca provides and creates high quality technology jobs in Pennsylvania,” said Christian Wiethuechter, President & Chief Executive Officer at EAM-Mosca Corp. “These jobs come from a true understanding of our clients’ needs and our engineering efforts on the mechanical and electrical side to produce a highly automated solution that meets an unmet need no one else has been able to satisfy, and that’s what’s made us successful in Pennsylvania and across the world.”

EAM-Mosca received a funding proposal from the Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development (DCED) for a $250,000 Pennsylvania First grant and was encouraged to apply for the Manufacturing Tax Credit Program.

“I’d like to congratulate the entire EAM-Mosca team on this project that will grow their operations right here in the Commonwealth,” noted DCED Secretary Rick Siger. “Governor Shapiro recognizes that manufacturing has long been an integral part of Pennsylvania’s economy, and his first budget makes critical investments to sustain that growth. From increasing funding in the Pennsylvania First program to investing in manufacturing innovation, the Governor is positioning the Commonwealth to win many more expansion projects like this one.”

Hazleton, Pennsylvania-based EAM-Mosca manufactures and distributes automatic strapping systems and customized, high-performance end-of-line packaging solutions. The company employs more than 320 team members at its operations in the U.S., Canada, Mexico, and Brazil.
