Elopak’s 2024 annual report details the company’s latest progress and important milestones across the key areas of people, planet and profit.
- People: In 2024 the company invested heavily in its people as well as its infrastructure. Elopak not only welcomed the highest number of new recruits but also strengthened several competence areas, including R&D and sustainability, and onboarded additional new colleagues who will manage the new production plant in the United States.
- Planet: The company’s strong performance in 2024 was underpinned by its continued dedication to making progress on key areas of sustainability. Notably, Elopak reduced its direct CO2e emissions by 37% from a 2020 baseline, as it works towards achieving a 42% reduction by 2030 and net zero by 2050, validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Also, the company managed to reduce the average carbon footprint per carton by 29% compared to 2014.
- Profit: 2024 was defined by a strong financial performance including reported record-breaking revenues. Revenues grew organically by 2.2% to EUR 1,157 million, EBITDA margin was 15.2% and the leverage ratio at year end was 2.1x. Our commitment to realising global growth is already well underway with the company having sold a record volume of 16 billion cartons last year.
