Description: AVY Avery Dennison January 02, 2026
Avery Dennison Corp. (NYSE: AVY) is a global materials-science and digital-identification company that markets pressure-sensitive label materials, performance tapes, graphics/reflective films, and branding & information solutions (e.g., RFID, brand-protection tags) across a broad customer base that includes retail, e-commerce, logistics, food & grocery, pharma, and automotive.
Key operating metrics (FY 2023): revenue ≈ $10.1 billion, adjusted EPS ≈ $4.44, and a 12 % YoY increase in the RFID-based information-solutions segment, which now contributes roughly 18 % of total sales. The company’s “sustainable packaging” portfolio grew at a 15 % compound annual rate over the past three years, reflecting rising consumer and regulatory pressure for recyclable and low-carbon materials.
Sector drivers that materially affect AVY’s outlook include (1) accelerating demand for eco-friendly packaging driven by EU and U.S. legislation on single-use plastics; (2) expanding adoption of item-level RFID in supply-chain visibility, especially within the fast-growing e-commerce and logistics markets; and (3) raw-material cost volatility (primarily petroleum-derived plastics) that can compress margins unless offset by pricing power or cost-efficiency initiatives.
Investors should monitor the company’s ability to translate its RFID and sustainable-packaging growth into higher-margin revenue streams while managing input-cost pressures.
