Strength in Diversity – Building a Stronger Community Together

Our commitment to the principles of diversity, equity and inclusion is reflected in our daily interactions, projects, and the environment we create together. Therefore, on International Day for Tolerance, November 16, we mark the importance of tolerance, respect for diversity, and the need to build inclusive communities. Tolerance teaches us to appreciate the wealth that comes from diversity, creating space for dialogue, understanding, and collective growth.

 

The strength of Aluflexpack Group lies in the wealth of diversity brought by our employees. We operate in 16 locations across 9 countries in Europe, North Africa, and the USA, speaking over 20 different languages. All of this allows us to enjoy the richness of different cultures, skills, and perspectives. Diversity and inclusion are key to the creation of our group’s synergy and a strong organisational culture.

 

“Tolerance is respect, acceptance, and appreciation of the rich diversity of our world’s cultures, our forms of expression, and ways of being human.” – UNESCO’s 1995 Declaration of Principles on Tolerance.
