Significant events
- “The slow adoption of Battery Electric Vehicles, partly caused by the general economic situation, continues to impact on manufacturers' plans for current and future vehicle platforms and consequently new program awards have remained below normal levels. Non-automotive business has also been impacted by the general economic situation in Europe, and this has been reflected in a reduction in turnover in the Accomplast group.”
