Robinson volumes held back by tough conditions in Denmark, Poland

(Sharecast News) - Shares in Robinson slumped on Tuesday after the plastic and paperboard packaging group highlighted recent challenging conditions for its Danish and Polish operations, which are expected to continue into 2026. The company said that, despite an expected increase in revenue next year, underlying operating profits are predicted to be "slightly lower" than 2025 due to higher operating costs and lower rental income after selling off surplus properties.

For 2025, revenues are expected to be around £56m, more or less in line with 2024, with underlying operating profits tracking in line with market expectations.

Sales volumes in the UK are ahead of last year due to new projects won and implemented over the past 24 months.

However, this growth has been offset by falling volumes in Denmark due to "significantly lower and more volatile demand from our larger customers and the loss of some contracts with smaller customers".

Meanwhile, in Poland, volumes were slightly lower than last year but Robinson said it was starting to see "challenges emerge [...] as customers are under severe pressure from retailers to reduce their costs".

Robinson's stock price was down 6.7% at 118.99p in early deals.
