CARE Ratings upgrades EPL's long-term rating to AA+ with developing watch

CARE Ratings has revised EPL Ltd's long-term credit rating to AA+ (RWD), placing it on developing watch, while reaffirming the short-term rating at A1+ and removing that rating from watch. The move on 7 October 2026 reflects an improved assessment of the packaging maker's credit profile.

Why this mattersA stronger credit rating can lower EPL's borrowing costs, though the developing watch leaves uncertainty over the direction of future changes.
