We just published our annual report 2025. We made meaningful progress on our four strategic actions.
profitable growth: despite market softness, we achieved organic growth in key verticals such as data centres, aerospace, power generation, and defence. Our valves portfolio and building segment saw growth in America and Asia. While the demand for lithography systems was low due to customer inventory adjustment, semicon back-end activities showed strong growth.
leadership positions: acquisitions of Paulo, Geo-Flo, and GVT expanded our reach in America and Southeast Asia. Progress on divestment programme with Metalis, KAN, and the intended Broen transactions helped rebalance our European portfolio
the Aalberts way: we focused on margin protection, cost and footprint optimisation, operational excellence, and inventory management. We updated our operating model, with further improvements in group standards, business processes, and policies strengthening our functional platforms
sustainable commitments: we deployed health and safety roadmaps, advanced sustainability initiatives in CO₂ scope 1, 2, and 3 reductions, and achieved sustainability certifications for many business units. Our six decarbonisation levers continue to drive progress toward our net zero carbon target by 2050 or earlier
