Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers

Margins divide P&L lines by turnover. Gearing is liabilities over total assets. Current ratio is current assets over creditors falling due within one year. Interest cover is operating profit over absolute finance costs. Sector-distribution context coming next.

Significant events

• “The year commenced with the continued trend of raw material price stabilisation that was evident in the last months of trading in 2023. As this progressed through to the mid point of the year, headwinds on both pulp and recycled pricing gained momentum in the second half of the year bringing challenging conditions and only offering signs of stabilisation in the final months.”
• “Revenues of £44.5 million were achieved for the year, on par with sales recorded in the previous year although volumes sold to achieve this result were higher as a result of sales price softening.”
• “In 2024, the company achieved a 15% reduction in energy consumption whilst delivering a 12% increase in operational output.”
• “Pursuant to Article 2427, paragraph 1, no. 22-quater, of the Italian Civil Code, no significant events occurred after the reporting date. These Financial Statements, formed by Statement of Financial Position, Income Statement and Notes, are a true and correct representation of the economic and financial situation, as well as of the operating income and it corresponds to the accounting records.”
