Per Thorsell, CEO of ProfilGruppen, comments:

”We deliver a strong quarterly result in the base, but the result is burdened by disruptions in our new production facility in the subsidary PG&WIP. The positive news are that we during the quarter have solved the problems in process and quality that have arised and that the production now is successfully ramped up to produce according to plan in the end of the fourth quarter.

I think that all parts in the organization are doing a strong work and are continuously developing to create an even better customer benefit and effectiveness. Meanwhile the work with our new extrusion facility goes according to plan and even more strengthens the power and amibiton throughout the organization.”
