SPL achieved a gross profit of PKR 2,204 million, an 8% increase from last year driven by a strong demand for its specialized security paper products, especially banknote paper. The increase in profit before tax is the result of optimized operations and better cost management.

Over the past year, SPL has remained focused on upgrading its manufacturing facilities and optimizing processes through the integration of advanced technologies.
