Sustainability is our responsibility

We strive to produce quality, innovative and environmentally friendly packaging.

  • In implementing our sustainability strategy, we focus on the environment, producers, consumers and the future.
  • We develop recyclable products by raising awareness on climate change, especially for future generations.
  • We set an example with practices that improve the mental and physical quality of life of our employees, and we strive for a healthy and high-quality life.
  • By using technology in the developing world, we offer solution partnership to our producers with safe, practical, environmentally friendly and useful packaging.
  • We contribute to the economy and employment by supporting non-governmental organisations in the regions where we operate.

In its strategy, the European Commission aims to reduce plastic production by 55% by 2025 and 65% by 2030. Recycling raw materials that take a long time to decompose in nature extends the life of raw materials and reduces the amount of waste accumulated in nature. As a pioneering brand operating nationally and internationally, we continue our steps towards becoming a social brand that works for a sustainable future and develops world-class products.

Quality Standards

Through our quality standards, we ensure added value, excellence, and customer satisfaction in every product we develop. At AF Packaging, we operate within high-quality standards at every step for the benefit of our customers, employees, and the environment.

As AF Packaging, we embrace the BRC-PM standard requirements approved by the Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI) as a part of our work culture, aligning with the latest technologies applicable in the global markets.

To enhance our quality standards, we always take into consideration all the requests and feedback received from our customers. This enables us to maintain the highest level of product quality throughout the ERP process by utilising the best machinery and equipment, providing quality data from suppliers to customers, and maintaining complete traceability records.

To achieve utmost customer satisfaction, we perform leak-proof tests and conduct lamination checks using incubator equipment. We take pride in being partners and supporters of our customers’ products by employing pasteurisation process analysis to enhance product safety.

Innovation

Packaging not only protects the contents of a product but also achieves success through its visual and physical features that distinguish it from other products and establish a connection with consumers as part of the brand experience.

Furthermore, packaging should add value throughout the supply chain, making distribution and usage as efficient as possible for consumers while minimising its environmental impact. Therefore, at AF Packaging, we continuously innovate based on packaging insights.

We embrace this approach at AF Packaging, fostering closer relationships with our customers and providing them with innovative and high-quality packaging solutions to meet their needs.

What is Recyclable Packaging?

The separation and collection of used wastes according to their type, to be obtained as raw materials through various physical and chemical processes, is called recycling. Recyclability depends on the collection of used waste and the recycling streams available in each country.

Packaging is a necessity that fulfills basic needs not only for humans but also for nature and animals. Additionally, packaging is one of the most widely used products in the world, driven by increasing population and demand density. Recyclable packaging, characterised by its recyclability, is referred to as environmentally friendly packaging. Minimising the harm to nature due to the increasing population and needs is one of our company’s main goals. In line with this objective, we ensure that our packaging is 100% recyclable by using recyclable materials in our packaging. Examples of commonly used products in the industry include recyclable packaging for food, pet food, personal care, home cleaning, textiles, and agricultural products. By choosing environmentally friendly companies that use recyclable packaging:

  • Waste volume decreases, thereby minimising landfill areas,
  • Prevention of material depletion, contributing to both the company and the national economy,
  • Energy savings are achieved,
  • Natural resource waste is reduced as 100% recyclable materials are used,
  • Especially in food products, the extra barrier material structure protects the product from external factors
