The company approved nearly €600 million in various projects, in response to growing customer demand. A total of 48 new converting machines and six new corrugators were approved across Europe and the Americas.

Tony Smurfit, Group CEO, Smurfit Kappa noted that the company reported corrugated growth of 9% and 11% in Europe and the Americas respectively, in comparison to the prior year. The corrugated price increase during this period was able to absorb most of the higher input costs related to recovered fibre and energy.
