Sustainable Packaging Demand
Metal’s recyclability can support long-term demand as brands and regulators favour sustainable formats, though adoption and regulation can change outcomes.
Customer & Market Mix
Exposure to personal care, beverage and industrial customers diversifies end markets, but revenue can still be affected by large-customer contracts and geographic cycles.
