By GlobalDataThe company said in a statement: “Overall the company has made significant additions in product mix, introduced better functional packs and implemented use of recycled material for industrial packaging.
“As always, Mold-Tek has been in the forefront of establishing use of recycled input materials in our new pack designs. Further, there is a steep fall in raw materials which put stress on margins due to drop in inventory valuation. Looking ahead, we remained focused on pursuing growth and adding high-value product mix in the coming quarters.”
