In the fast-paced and highly competitive world of business, Mpact Plastics increasingly recognise the importance of employee wellness as a key factor in driving productivity, engagement, and long-term success. During the month of October, we focus on breast cancer awareness and encourage our employees and their loved ones to undergo screening and self-examination for early detection. Educating employees on cancer awareness is a vital part of fostering a healthy and informed workplace. Providing information on early detection, risk factors, and prevention strategies empowers employees to take charge of their health. Our employees attend workshops, informational sessions, and health screenings to help raise awareness about the importance of regular check-ups and recognising symptoms. #Mpact #MpactLimited #MpactPlastics #EmployeeWellness #SustainablePackaging #CancerAwareness #BreastCancerAwarenessMonth

Closing the loop on the circular economy. Mpact Group plays an important role in closing the loop on the circular economy in southern Africa through our position as the largest paper and plastics packaging and recycling company in the region. Responsible environmental management is both a key focus area for the business and an important aspect of our strategy to create value. How do we do it? · We purchase raw materials from responsible sources. · Most of the fibre used in our paper mills is supplied by the Recycling division. · Additional virgin pulp comes from responsible source. · Our paper mills and Paper Converting plants are certified to the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) standards. · The Plastics business uses recycled polymers in production to client specifications. · An increasing percentage of the high-density polyethylene used in the manufacture of crates and wheelie bins. · Pallets in the Bins and Crates unit comes from on-site recycling. #Mpact #MpactGroup #SustainablePackaging #CircularEconomy

Water conservation in packaging manufacturing. In today's world, sustainability isn't just a buzzword—it's a necessity. As a packaging manufacturer, we play a crucial role in conserving one of our most precious resources: water. We are proud to share that we've surpassed our water usage targets per tonne of packaging produced for the past two years, demonstrating our commitment to sustainable practices. World Water Week serves as a global reminder of the importance of conserving this scarce resource. Let's continue to innovate and lead by example in our industry. #Mpact #MpactGroup #Sustainability #WaterConservation #Packaging #WorldWaterWeek #CorporateResponsibility #Innovation
