The year 2022 was challenging for the Elma Group due to geopolitical and economic uncertainties.
CH-Wetzikon, February 28, 2023 – The business transformation towards profitable growth was driven forward with additional customer orders and awards for innovative system solutions. In 2022, the Elma Group again increased both order income and net sales. The challenges in the global supply chains and increasing material and energy prices reduced the company's profit. Elma was still able to close the business year with a solid result and the Board of Directors will propose to the Annual General Meeting the same dividend payment as last year.
