Record Sales and Change at the Top
Once again, Europlast was able to conclude a successful business year. In 2022, the company achieved sales of € 48 million and currently employs 145 people at the Dellach site and 5 in Oradea, Romania. Towards the end of the year, the company was able to secure capacity utilisation until the end of February 2023 by winning a major contract for recyclable material collection containers. Once again, the company won the public tender for the supply of recyclable waste collection containers for the City of Vienna. In Romania, the company is one of the market leaders in the field of container suppliers. Despite uncertainties on the procurement markets, Europlast always remained capable of delivering and was able to secure the energy supply for the next few years in a cost-effective manner by taking action in advance. Since 2017, Dr Arthur Primus (50), who was born in Möllbrückn, kept developping the company as Managing Director on behalf of the Italian 100% owner, JCO Plastic Spa. Despite difficult conditions caused by the pandemic or the Ukraine war, numerous successes could be achieved. In addition to the Austrian Leading Companies 2021 award and the award for the greenest factory in Austria 2022, the company was certified as a family business by the Federal Ministry. At the end of March, Primus will leave the company at his own request to take up a position as COO in the management team at WILD Holding. “The journey with the Europlast team has been an exciting and in the end very successful one. Now it is time for me to take on an even bigger task, which I realised on my 50th birthday,” says Primus. WILD (contract manufacturer for optomechatronic systems with 500 employees at 4 locations) is known as a pearl in the Austrian corporate landscape with great owners (LIAG of the Liaunig family and the Dieter Feger Private Foundation) who foster and demand growth. In addition to the 2 Carinthian locations in Wernberg and Völkermarkt, the holding company also has locations in Trnava (Slovakia) and Vienna. Company Founder and long-term Managing Director Helmuth Kubin (72) will take over the management of Europlast until a successor has been found. “We are sorry to hear of Arthur Primus’ decision, but thank him for a successful cooperation in both personal and professional terms.”

€ 160,000 alternative energy subsidy for photovoltaic systems
At Europlast, circular economy and sustainability are key issues, which is why four photovoltaic systems have been used on the production halls for just over six months. With the help of the solar power generated in this way, more than 200 tonnes of CO2 have been saved so far. In return, Europlast received an alternative energy subsidy in the amount of € 160,000. The grant was presented by Provincial Governor Peter Kaiser, who was there on behalf of Energy and Climate Protection Provincial Councillor Sara Schaar. CEO Helmuth Kubin is planning a photovoltaic system on the east façade of the new production hall as the next step to continue on the path towards climate-friendly heat generation.
