Elopak had a satisfactory end to last year and experienced revenue growth of 12 percent, compared to the fourth quarter of 2020. Overall, revenue growth last year was 3.5 percent, and revenue for the whole of 2021 of 940 mEUR is the highest Elopak has ever delivered. This gave an operating profit of 121 mEUR.
Based on the IPO, the acquisition of Naturepak Beverage Packaging Co Ltd, and the environmentally friendly products Pure-TwistFlip™ and Pure-Pak® eSense developed last year, Elopak CEO Thomas Körmendi believes that the company is well-positioned for further growth. The tethered cap Pure-TwistFlip remains attached to the carton throughout its lifetime, meaning it can potentially reduce marine litter. The cap is also Elopak’s lightest screw cap to date, helping to reduce the use of plastic. Pure-Pak eSense is an aseptic carton without aluminum, which reduces the carbon footprint by 30 percent and facilitates easier recycling.
