What Myers Industries does

US maker of plastic and metal storage, material-handling containers and pallets for industrial, agricultural and consumer use.

Makes plastic containers and parts from resin, so profit depends on the spread between selling prices and resin cost, which it partly passes through to customers. A distribution business supplies tire-service products to dealers and is a separate business with its own cycle.

Products and services

  • Reusable plastic containers
  • Pallets & bulk containers
  • Tire repair/service products
  • Horticulture pots

Customers

  • Industrial distributors
  • Agricultural/horticulture growers
  • Automotive aftermarket

Where it sits in the supply chain

  • Industrials
  • Plastics/rubber manufacturing
  • Material handling equipment

What could go right

  • Industrial reshoring/domestic manufacturing demand
  • Shift from wood/metal to reusable containers

What could go wrong

  • Cyclical industrial and agricultural demand
  • Resin (plastic input) cost swings

Moat: narrow (scale, distribution). Established plastics manufacturing scale and distributor relationships in a fragmented, low-differentiation market.

Unsponsored ADR (FOIL).
Is Myers Industries expensive compared with its peers?
On forward p/e it trades at 13.5× against a peer median of 15.4×, 6th cheapest of 13 in its peer set. For today's price to make sense, revenue must grow about 3% a year for seven years (Req g). Recent delivered growth is +10%, so the hurdle is -7 pp: the price already allows for a slowdown.
How has Myers Industries stock performed?
Over six months to 6 Nov 2026 the shares returned +17.4% against -25.8% for the median peer; over one year +51.2%.

How these numbers are made. Returns are close-to-close in local currency. Revenue growth and margins are trailing twelve months. Req g is the revenue growth that today's enterprise value requires for seven years at the company's own cost of capital; Delivered g is what it actually grew; the gap is the hurdle (honest precision about ±8 points, so read the ranking more than the decimal). No fair values, price targets or analyst ratings are shown, by design. Method and validation.
