Capville - Alcoa CSI
Tuesday, October 17th, 2006Crawfordsville is the absolute world leader in bottle cap production.
Not only do we have Alcoa CSI producing more plastic bottle caps than any other city in the world, but their process and equipment to produce plastic bottle caps was invented here.
Crown Cork and Seal is also located here and is the only metal cap manufacturer still remaining in the United States. These two companies have an intertwining history in Crawfordsville starting back in 1932 when Robert A. Smith founded what was then known as Hoosier Crown.
