Tove Andersen, President and CEO of TOMRA Systems ASA comments:
“I am very pleased that we continue to deliver on our strategic growth
ambitions, delivering all-time high revenues in all three divisions -
Collection, Recycling and Food. At the same time, we have lifted gross margins
in both Collection and Recycling while scaling up the organization for further
growth and continuing to innovate. We are also taking further actions to improve
performance in our Food division where we have been seeing weaker market
sentiment in the current macroeconomic environment.”
“TOMRA is well positioned to develop adjacent opportunities to our core
business, and I am very excited about the progress we are making in these new
ventures. There is a legislative push to advance the circularity of plastic
packaging through recycled content targets and reusable takeaway packaging. In
TOMRA, we innovate new circular business models based on our technology. This
quarter, we announced together with Plastretur that we will create Norway’s
first dedicated sorting plant to enable circular plastic packaging. We also
entered into collaboration with Aarhus Municipality in Denmark to create the
country’s first deposit system for takeaway packaging. All these ventures have
the potential to become additional profitable business divisions in TOMRA.”
“Looking ahead, we are optimistic about the long-term demand for better resource
productivity, which is driven by megatrends such as population increase, a
growing middle-class consumer base, greater urbanization, and hence the need for
increased focus on sustainability and climate change. With the technology we
provide, TOMRA is well-positioned to enable society meet the challenges that
follow by transforming how we obtain, use and reuse our world’s resources.”
