Ansell opens a new manufacturing plant in Kovai to bolster production capacity. The facility supports supply chains for strategic markets and improves customer-focused operations. The move aligns with the company’s broader capital investment strategy in India.
Ansell Limited names Nathalie Ahlstrom as its new Chief Executive Officer. The company transitions leadership with Ahlstrom taking on the role to guide its global operations in personal protection and hygiene solutions. This marks a significant change at the helm for the Australian-based manufacturer.
Ansell reports full-year 2025 revenue of **US$2.00 billion**, a 24% increase from FY 2024. The company’s net income rises **33% year-over-year to US$101.6 million**, though earnings per share fall short of analyst projections. The results reflect continued growth in protective gloves and healthcare solutions, though cost pressures and market competition weigh on margins.
Ansell assumes management of Kimberly-Clark’s personal protective equipment (PPE) brands as part of its first major commercial step after acquiring the business. The move consolidates Ansell’s portfolio in workplace safety gear, expanding its global reach in protective solutions.
