Social Contribution Activities of the Polyplastics Group (Harmony & Sustainability for the future 2024 Vol.2) Polyplastics Co., Ltd.
Polyplastics is actively engaging in social contribution activities worldwide, tailored to meet local needs. These initiatives are led by members of the CSR promotion team at each overseas group company. The slogan guiding these efforts is “Harmony & Sustainability for the Future.” In this article, we will share some of the latest reports on these initiatives from around the world.
【Shanghai, Nantong】 Desert Greening via Tree-Planting and Fund-Raising
This October, our employees from Shanghai and Nantong carried out greening activities to address the growing problem of desertification in northwest China. Employees from our group traveled to the desert to plant trees. We also donated 750 RMB to support greening projects.
【Hanoi】Seminar on Engineering Plastics
In Hanoi this November, we took part in Joint Lab., a collaborative initiative by Japanese companies to foster the next generation of engineering talent. We hosted a seminar on engineering plastics for students at the Hanoi University of Science and Technology (HUST), with around 60 students attending. Looking ahead, we will continue to organize seminars to help enhance students’ technical expertise.
【Hong Kong】Workshop to Promote Understanding of Hearing Impairments
In Hong Kong, we organized a workshop this September to promote understanding of individuals with hearing impairments. The workshop allowed participants to experience the challenges of communicating without sound, aiming to foster greater awareness of minority groups. On the day of the event, 13 employees attended the session, taking part in role-playing games, wearing sound-proof earmuffs and communicating through sign language.
We will continue to engage in social contribution activities as a unified Polyplastics Group to become a company that can contribute to a better future society.
