Exciting environmental progress is on the horizon at SACO, as preparations are now underway for the installation of new solar panels. Set to be completed in time for the summer, this development will significantly reduce our carbon footprint and increase our use of renewable energy across the site.

It’s an important milestone in our drive towards a more sustainable future, enabling us to operate more responsibly and set an example within our industry.

We’re also proud to share that our sister company, IAC Ltd, will be fitting their own solar panels later this year. Together, we’re working hard toward a shared vision of greener manufacturing, powered by innovation.

Last January, we had the pleasure of attending Paris Packaging Week (PCD), and what an incredible event it was! It was fantastic to connect with so many passionate professionals, share our latest innovations, and be inspired by the creativity shaping the future of beauty packaging.

A huge thank you to everyone who visited our stand – we truly appreciate your time, insights, and enthusiasm. Engaging in meaningful conversations and showcasing our packaging solutions made the experience even more special.

We’re already looking forward to next year and continuing the journey together.
