Şişecam Continues to Advance 'CareforNext'

Şişecam continues to advance its 2030 sustainability strategy 'CareforNext', aligned with UN Sustainable Development Goals, across three pillars: 'Protecting the Planet', 'Empowering Communities' and 'Transforming Lives'. To this end, Şişecam has launched the CareforNext micro website, aiming to transparently communicate all its sustainability activities to stakeholders. On its website at https://sustainability.sisecam.com/tr, designed to engage with all stakeholders and provide comprehensive information on sustainability activities, CareforNext approach details, information on Şişecam's recyclable and advanced-technology products developed with a sustainability focus, promotional videos of these products, the company's corporate social responsibility projects, and related news, announcements and events are featured. On the website's "Sustainability A to Z" section, Şişecam explains its sustainability relationship with investors and shares its policies and documents on this subject. In addition to its own sustainability reports, Şişecam plans to present reports from its brands operating in different business areas to stakeholders through this website. Şişecam monitors its annual progress in line with priority targets set based on GRI methodology and reports transparently. Through the CareforNext micro website, Şişecam aims to communicate to stakeholders how it addresses sustainability. In 2021, as it announced its 2030 CareforNext strategy, which serves as a roadmap for the responsibilities it committed to undertake for sustainability priorities—"protecting the planet", "empowering communities" and "transforming lives"—Şişecam aims to extend this vision, developed with the goal of a better world across different areas, to encompass all stakeholders and processes throughout the value chain, from raw material procurement through production, sales and customers. Şişecam views its sustainability approach not as an obligation it must fulfill to comply with global production standards, but as an important responsibility, and considers the concept of "Sustainable Future" as its highest priority. Founded in 1935 with the vision of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, the founder of the Turkish Republic, to establish the Turkish glass sector, Şişecam is a strong global player in glass and chemicals. Operating in all major areas of glass including flat glass, glassware, glass containers and glass fiber, Şişecam ranks among the world's top two producers in glassware and top five globally in flat glass and glass containers. In addition to being among the world's three largest soda ash producers, it is the global leader in chromium chemicals.
