Novelis Inc. broke ground Monday for the aluminum supplier’s $305 million processing plant in Todd County, which will create 125 full-time jobs producing automotive-grade aluminum sheet.

Novelis’ 400,000-square-foot facility on a 150-acre site in Guthrie will heat treat and pre-heat rolled aluminum coils from the nearby Logan Aluminum plant in Russellville that is co-owned by Novelis. The Guthrie facility will include machinery and technology to produce automotive-body-panel-grade aluminum sheet, increasing the company’s global capacity. Company leaders anticipate it will be operational by 2020.
