The agency has also affirmed the company's short-term rating at 'CARE A1+'. Care Ratings stated that the ratings assigned to bank facilities of EPL continue to be supported by its established global market position in the laminated tubes segment and long-standing relationships with reputed global clients. The company benefits from the deep industry expertise of the Blackstone Group and the entry of Indorama Ventures Public Company (IVL) as a strategic investor. Ratings are further strengthened by EPL's robust business model, characterised by a widespread global distribution network and a diverse product portfolio with steady demand, considering the essential nature of its products. Industry prospects also remain positive, supported by diverse end-use applications such as oral care, beauty and cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, healthcare, food, and home care, and growing preference for laminated tubes due to their inherent advantages. The company's financial risk profile remains strong, with comfortable debt coverage indicators and a healthy liquidity position. However, these strengths are partially offset by exposure to volatility in raw material prices'particularly delays in passing on cost increases to contracted customers'currency risks, and intense competition in the global market. EPL is a specialty packaging company. Operating in the packaging industry, the company manufactures laminated plastic tubes, producing over 9 billion tubes annually for sectors such as oral care, beauty and cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, healthcare, food, nutrition and home care.
