PACKPROFIL ACHIEVES HISTORIC RECORD - MORE THAN 100 TONS OF CARDBOARD IN ONE DAY!
We are proud to announce that on November 27, 2024, Packprofil surpassed the barrier of 100 tons of cardboard produced in a single day for the first time in its 120-year history. This remarkable achievement is the result of consistent optimization, innovative solutions and the commitment of the entire team.

From 80 to 105 tons - dynamic growth
Not so long ago, we enjoyed a result of 80 tons, and just a week later, we reached 105 tons. This is an impressive example of how technology and passion can drive sustainable growth.

Key to success - investment and optimization
The record was made possible by comprehensive investments that increased the efficiency and sustainability of our processes:

Loading optimization - Removal of an overhead crane, use of a telehandler and modernization of the waste paper yard.
Expansion of production systems - Automation of pulping system, sorters and pulp preparation process.
Modern technologies - Replacement of the steam boiler, heat recovery and modernization of ventilation and vacuum systems.
Sustainable solutions - Regeneration of suction presses, replacement of dryer covers, and cyclical repairs and maintenance of machinery.

Together for a better future
The historic result is not just a number - it's a step toward a future of sustainable packaging that combines ecology with logistical efficiency. We are proud that our innovation and commitment supports the global supply chain and helps protect the planet.
We are not stopping!!!
PACKPROFIL LOCAL ACTIVITIES - WE SUPPORT, EDUCATE, INSPIRE
At Packprofil, we not only care about the environment, but also engage with the local community. Here's what happened in November 2024:

Student visits - education and inspiration
We were visited by children from the Special School Complex in Zawadzkie and the Public Elementary School in Staniszcze Wielkie. These were days full of energy and inspiration, during which the young guests:

Toured the factory and watched with curiosity our machines in action, transforming waste paper into ecological products such as bushings, angles and pallets.
They learned about the idea of the “3Rs” - Reduce, Replace, Recycle - and our efforts to protect the environment.
They took away samples of the products to use in creative art projects at school.
At the end, each group received reflective vests from us to remind them to be safe.

Lemon challenge - helping Emilka
Our PackTeam participated in the “Lemon challenge” for Emilka Boldyzer, supporting a collection for the girl's treatment.

These actions show that Packprofil is more than a company - it's a place that supports the local community, educates and inspires people to care about the environment and other people.
PACKPROFIL FIRE DRILLS - WE CARE ABOUT SAFETY!
At Packprofil, the safety of our employees and the local community is a priority. Therefore, we regularly organize fire drills to improve our procedures and skills. On 21.10.2024 we held a fire safety drill, which was an excellent opportunity for practical learning and cooperation.

What happened during the exercises?
Fire simulation - Employees efficiently located and used fire extinguishers, extinguishing the fire outbreak in accordance with health and safety rules.
Evacuation - The halls were abandoned in less than 5 minutes, confirming the effectiveness of our procedures.
First aid - CPR (resuscitation) was simulated on a phantom and assistance was given to a person with burns.

Support was provided by firefighters from Staniszcze Wielkie, sharing experience and supervising the activities. We would also like to thank firefighters from Spórok for the phantom, which made the exercises more realistic.

Such initiatives are key to better emergency preparedness and building a culture of safety in Packprofil!
WE SUPPORT LOCAL ACTIONS AND PROMOTE A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE
On September 7, the Cross Dolina Mała Panew sports event - W Pogoni Za Bobrem - took place. Participants competed on 12.5 km and 7 km routes, and the event was a family event, with runs for children and additional attractions. Over 200 competitors took part with the support of uniformed services and rescuers who ensured safety.

PACKPROFIL: EMPLOYEE INTEGRATION AT CANOEING AND PARTY
On 30 August 2024, Packprofil organised a team-building event for more than 200 employees at the "Amazonka" in Kolonowskiem. The event started with a canoe trip on the Mała Panew River, and then the participants enjoyed themselves until late in the evening with DJ music, team games and delicious food.

The event was part of the company's CSR strategy, promoting a healthy lifestyle and strengthening relationships within the team. By holding the event in a local setting, Packprofil also supported the local community and tourism, demonstrating its commitment to the development of the region and the wellbeing of its employees.

VISIT OF STUDENTS FROM THE KOLONOWSKIE PRIMARY SCHOOL
Our visitors learned about the process of transforming waste paper into a finished product.
They were able to see with their own eyes that segregating waste makes sense in terms of both protecting the environment and reusing raw materials.
The students were made aware of the safety rules on company premises.
