Şişecam will share its sustainability related actions – the focal point of all its operations and the core element of its business model – on a dedicated micro website. With its new micro website at https://sustainability.sisecam.com/en, Şişecam aims to reach out defined target groups and highlight “CareforNext 2030,” its sustainability strategy in line with UN Sustainable Development Goals.

This new platform includes details of the CareforNext approach; information about Şişecam’s recyclable, value added, advanced technology products developed with a focus on sustainability; promotional videos; corporate social responsibility projects; news/announcements and events related to these key areas.
Şişecam announced its CareforNext 2030 strategy in 2021 as a roadmap of its sustainability priorities of “Protecting the Planet,” “Empowering Society” and “Transforming Life.” The company aims to expand this vision further for a better world to all its stakeholders and processes in the value chain – including raw material supply, production, sales, and consumption. Şişecam focuses on sustainability as a core responsibility rather than simply an obligation to comply with production standards. Şişecam considers “Sustainable Future” concept as a top priority.
