PR Rolls grew profitably
all the way to a record turnover
PR Rolls’ financial year, which ended at the end of June, was very strong. The company’s turnover climbed to record levels, and operating profit also grew significantly.
“In the face of such results, you must be humble and satisfied. Especially when you consider all the challenges related to our international operating environment. Even though there are many challenges in the economy, companies have developed their operations and maintained their machinery and equipment. Customers have trusted us, and we have been able to do what we are good at. There has been plenty of work in the pulp, paper and board industries”, comments PR Rolls’ Managing Director Jani Westerlund on the past financial year.
The company’s turnover increased by 44 percent to 5.2 million euros from 3.6 million euros achieved in the previous year. The operating profit amounts to just over 0.7 million euros.
PR Rolls performed well in its traditionally strong market area in Central Europe.
“In addition to our core business, a few large deliveries to international groups boosted both turnover and operating profit. We also gained a foothold in a new market area in Africa”, Westerlund says.
Among the services offered by PR Rolls, maintenance of fibre lines and spare parts services in particular drove growth. For example, PR Rolls has developed high-quality seals for DD washers, which have been well received by customers.
According to Jani Westerlund, the outlook for the current financial year is also promising.
“There is a lot of potential in South America, and we are currently strengthening our agent network there. We have also expanded our operations and made investments in the food industry, where there is an opportunity to leverage our expertise. Similarly, the demand for field machinery in the energy sector has been positive. Additionally, we have ongoing new development projects that support growth”, Westerlund states.
