Excluding currency, organic sales grew just under 1%, which is far slower than the mid-single-digit rate of 2018. Adjusted operating income rose roughly 1% to $216.6 million in the second quarter, as operating margins expanded versus the year prior...Avery Dennison is engaged in the production of pressure-sensitive materials and a variety of tickets, tags, labels and other converted products.
