Continued portfolio optimization and targeted acquisitions in high growth, high margin segments (such as medtech, life science, and aerospace) enhance EBITDA margins and support structural earnings resilience, as integration benefits and synergies materialize. Ongoing investment in innovation, R&D, and new production facilities (for example, new medtech capabilities in Europe and Costa Rica) is expanding Trelleborg's differentiated product pipeline. This supports organic growth opportunities and potential improvements in net margins over time as higher value offerings ramp up.
