Elopak brings forward new CEO Hakon Volldal's start date to 2 November

Elopak has moved up the start date of incoming chief executive Hakon Volldal to 2 November 2026, ahead of the timeline set when his appointment was announced on 15 June 2026. Interim CEO Bent K. Axelsen will revert to chief financial officer, and interim CFO Ola Buaroy returns to his role as director of finance and tax.

Why this mattersThe earlier handover ends Elopak's interim arrangement sooner, returning Bent Axelsen to the CFO role and putting strategy under permanent leadership from November.

• Hakon Volldal becomes permanent CEO of Elopak on 2 November 2026, earlier than originally scheduled.
• The original appointment was announced on 15 June 2026.
• The board confirmed the accelerated timeline via a stock exchange disclosure on 21 October 2026.
• Interim CEO Bent K. Axelsen returns to his role as chief financial officer.
• Interim CFO Ola Buaroy resumes his position as director of finance and tax.
