The Hand Protection segment contributed Rs. 8 billion to the revenue, 14% higher than the previous year. The sector was able to grow its sales across global markets consistently by developing high quality products catering to customer specific needs. However due to steep increase in latex prices the contribution to PBT from the segment dropped to Rs. 65 million.
The Plantation segment reported Rs. 6.6 billion in revenue, 44% higher than the previous year. Contribution to PBT from the segment improved to Rs. 164 million. Plantation segment performance was affected by adverse weather conditions and restrictions on weedicides.
