The environment, sustainability, and recycling are central to everything we do within our business at Korozo.
We constantly refine and improve our processes and practices, develop recyclable materials and flexible packaging designs for customers, and follow a robust set of certifications and guidelines that ensure compliance with the latest rules and regulations.
As well as these practical steps, we are also about making recycling fun and engaging.
That’s why earlier this year, we launched the ‘From Waste To Dream’ competition for members of the Korozo family to channel their creativity and turn waste into something imaginative, entertaining, and fun.
From cardboard boxes, packaging waste, and spools, to waste paper, film strips, and fabric pieces, all was available to be turned into a piece of art, a toy, or even a building.
The Korozo family did not disappoint and threw themselves head first into the competition. Entries were received from across the business, with eight finalists selected from them.
The eight selected entries were created by Korozo colleague Musa Adıgüzel, Ercan Aksoy, Okan Bevlen, Emrah Düzgezen, Erdi Genç, Buğra Kızılateş, Pınar Umurtay, and Özcan Uysal.
The finalists ranged from jewellery and fashion items, ornaments, and toys, to a diorama off the natural world, replicas of historic monuments and machinery, and, perhaps ironically, recycling bins.
A judging panel of six esteemed and creative people from within Korozo meticulously evaluated the chosen entries. They focused on recycling awareness and creativity. This resulted in three of the eight finalists being selected as standout porjects.
The team members responsible for those entries received a voucher from Boyner for their efforts, while all eight finalists were treated to a Sunday breakfast at Istanbul Modern as well as enjoying a museum visit with their families.
All finalists and entries are on display at the entrance of our Lider building for the entire Korozo family to appreciate and enjoy.
‘From Waste To Dream’ highlights the commitment, creativity, and passion towards creating a safe, secure, and sustainable future that exists throughout our business.
It reinforces our messaging of Delivering Sustainability, Pack by Pack, and leading the industry into its sustainable and circular future.
