Plastivaloire Group Maintains Steady Performance Amid Challenges

Plastivaloire Group reported a third-quarter turnover of €175.8 million in fiscal year 2025-2026, a 6.3% decrease from the prior year. This decline comes amidst a challenging comparison base due to high production rates in the previous year. The Automotive division experienced a 7.9% drop, while the Industries division saw a 3.2% growth, contributing €28.5 million.

For the first nine months, turnover showed a slight downturn, reaching €528.5 million, down 1.0% but a 0.2% rise at constant exchange rates. The Automotive division performed well with a 1.3% increase year on year. Geographically, European sales remained steady, with a minimal decline in the Americas.

The Group reiterated its full-year targets of €690 million turnover and an 8.5% to 9% EBITDA margin, emphasizing cost control amid inflation. CEO Antoine Doutriaux expressed confidence in managing costs and preserving performance.
