Amcor (ASX:AMC), the world's largest consumer packaging company, is seen by value managers as a defensive business nearing a volume recovery. In September 2026, Allan Gray chose Amcor as a pick, describing it as a business that touches everyone in the world. First Samuel said the FY26 result offered the first tangible evidence that multi-year volume weakness may be stabilising, with group volumes turning positive for the first time in two years. Pendal noted volume growth was overshadowed by weaker first-half FY27 earnings guidance, while Atlas and Blackwattle also hold it. Amcor operates in the Materials sector within the Containers and Packaging industry, and Thesis Tracker has captured 36 comments from 21 fund managers, including Allan Gray, First Samuel, Pendal, Atlas and Blackwattle. Founded in 1926 and headquartered in Zurich, Amcor produces flexible and rigid packaging for food, beverage, healthcare and consumer products, and acquired Berry Global in 2025.
