The construction of Polipak's new production facility has been completed, while the relocation to the new premises has taken place. The new, 24,000 square-meter, technologically advanced production plant is equipped with modernized machinery, upgraded R&D and implements automated production processes towards the production of more environmentally friendly products and increased energy efficiency.
The new halls have been fully automated, equipped with robotic systems and autonomous forklifts, a most advanced central feeder and a cascading regranulation line, while the final product is improved in terms of ecological profile, durability, and functionality.
The Group's focus behind high quality, innovation, environmentally and socially responsible practices is embraced across Polipak's operational activity too.
Polipak follows an Integrated Management System approach being certified with the ISO 45001 Standard onOccupational Health & Safety Management, the ISO 14001 Standard on Environmental Management, the ISO 9001StandardonQuality Management and the BRC Global Standard for Consumer Products, and also holds the Blue Angel certification (a German environmental certification that certifies the high participation of recycled plastic), therefore making Polipak one of the pioneers in the production of garbage bags having an environmentally and socially responsible orientation.
Polipak's contribution to the Group is of great significance as it supports on the one hand the Group's strategy towards sustainable production and consumption through environmentally friendly production methods and products distinguished for their high quality, durability and ecological character, and on the other hand it offers operational efficiencies.
