Perlen Packaging's events

We are very proud to announce that now all our PERLALUX® main product groups (Mono PVC, Duplex PVC/PVdC, Tristar PVC/PE/PVdC) from our plants in China, Switzerland and Germany have obtained “Revision A” status on CDE's online platform and can be viewed under www.cde.org.cn. As the only foreign company manufacturing pharma grade blister films in China, we are well positioned to supply this growing and demanding market.

The CPH Group delivered a relatively sound overall performance during the coronavirus pandemic in 2020, thanks to its diversification in various business segments. With net sales of CHF 445.2 million, the Group achieved annual earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) of CHF 24.7 million. The net result for the year of CHF 47.0 million was broadly at its 2019 level, thanks to non-recurring income of CHF 25.9 million. The 2021 Ordinary General Meeting will be asked to approve the distribution of a dividend of CHF 1.80 per share for the 2020 financial year.

Uetikon Industrieholding AG is to be merged into CPH Chemie + Papier Holding AG. As a result, the present shareholders of Uetikon Industrieholding AG will hold shares directly in CPH Chemie + Papier Holding AG, raising the free float and thus enhancing the attractiveness of the CPH share. Following the merger, the CPH Group will continue to have the descendants of its founding families as strong anchor shareholders within its shareholder base.

2020 was a very special year, which required all of us to show solidarity, responsibility and consideration for other people. This year in particular, Perlen Packaging is continuing its tradition of donating 3,000 CHF to Titlisblick children’s home in Lucerne.
