Strengthens company’s North American operations, fosters job creation and advances sustainability goals, says officials.

Jungbunzlauer, a leading producer of high-quality, sustainable ingredients from natural sources, is breaking ground on Canada’s first xanthan gum facility – a $200-million addition to the company’s existing footprint in Port Colborne, Ontario, Canada.
The groundbreaking regards the first stage of a multi-year project, which is supported by $4.8 million from the Invest Ontario Fund.
“This expansion in Port Colborne marks a significant milestone for our North American business,” said Bruno Tremblay, Jungbunzlauer CEO. “This site not only reinforces our commitment to providing our partners with top-quality, natural biogums but also highlights our dedication to sustainability and to the local community.”
Tremblay was joined at the ceremony by site lead Ryan Doell and dignitaries from local, provincial and national governments, including Ontario Premier Doug Ford; Ontario Minister of Economic Development, Job Creation and Trade Vic Fedeli; Niagara South MP Vance Badawey; Niagara West MPP, the Hon. Sam Oosterhoff; and Mayor William Steele.
“We’ve been a proud part of the Port Colborne community for more than 20 years. In that time, we’ve invested $560 million into our local facility to expand capacity and improve sustainability,” said Tremblay. “As we look ahead to the next ten years, we expect to continue to make significant investments in capacity, sustainability and the community. On top of our capital investment, the jobs, services and local purchases from our facility add approximately $20 million to Port Colborne’s economy every year.”
The Phase 1 expansion is expected to be operational from spring 2026 and produce readily biodegradable xanthan gum, a thickening agent with a wide range of cosmetic and pharmaceutical uses. The Port Colborne expansion will increase Jungbunzlauer’s capacity to provide high quality xanthan gum to customers throughout North America.
Said Michael Fedchyshyn, Interim CEO for Invest Ontario, “Jungbunzlauer’s expansion shows very clearly that international companies looking for a strategic foothold in North America will find Ontario is the best place to invest.”
