Investing in people. Celebrating their potential. 🏆

Packaging World was honoured to receive a WIL Excellence Award at the Durban University of Technology’s HR Work-Integrated Learning (WIL) awards ceremony, recognising our contribution to the programme in 2025.

Our HR Director, Thanusha Thumbaya, also received the WIL Mentor Excellence Award in recognition of her commitment to mentoring emerging HR professionals. HR Manager Ncumisa Phungula and Training Manager Selwyn Peters joined her to celebrate this achievement.

What makes this recognition especially meaningful? All three HR interns we mentored in 2025 have since been appointed to permanent positions at Packaging World.

For us, work-integrated learning is an opportunity to help young professionals build confidence, gain practical experience and take their first steps towards lasting careers.

This year, we have welcomed two new HR learners and look forward to supporting their development.

Thank you to DUT for this recognition and for the opportunity to help develop the next generation of HR professionals. Congratulations to our HR team and the learners whose hard work made this achievement possible! 👏

Behind every breast cancer diagnosis is a person, a family and a community. 🩷

Today we celebrate the cultures, traditions and stories that make South Africa so special. 🇿🇦

Yesterday our team brought their heritage to life with colour, pride and plenty of smiles. These moments remind us how much we can learn from one another and how strong we are together.

It is with profound sadness that we share the passing of our colleague, Silindile Happiness Maphumulo.

Silindile was a kind and friendly person whose warm smile touched everyone around her. In January, she would have celebrated ten years as part of the Packaging World family—a decade of dedicated service and many cherished memories.

We extend our heartfelt condolences to Silindile’s family, friends and colleagues during this incredibly difficult time. Our thoughts and prayers are with all those who knew and loved her.

She will be deeply missed and fondly remembered.

Rest in peace, Silindile.

Yesterday, across our team, staff wore black as a visible act of remembrance and solidarity—for the women whose lives have been taken, for their grieving families, and for every woman who deserves to live without fear.

This photograph represents more than a shared colour. It represents a shared message: violence against women cannot be normalised, ignored or met with silence.

To every member of our team who participated—thank you for standing together and helping this message be seen.

We remember them. We stand with women. We call for accountability, justice and meaningful change.

Enough is enough.

This Friday, we wear black.

Eight women. Eight lives lost. Eight families facing a loss no family should ever have to endure.

On Friday, 18 September, Packaging World stands in solidarity with women across South Africa. We invite our employees, customers, industry partners, friends and communities to wear black—not as a fashion statement, but as a visible symbol of remembrance, unity and support.

We honour the women whose lives were taken.
We stand beside their families.
We stand with survivors.
And we stand for every woman’s right to live freely and without fear.

Wear black. Remember their lives. Stand together.

Even in silence, our collective presence sends a powerful message.

Enough is enough.

Today is World Packaging Day—a day dedicated to something we at Packaging World think about every day.

Because flexible packaging is more than just the material surrounding a product. It protects what matters, preserves quality, extends shelf life and helps products move safely and efficiently from production lines to shelves—and into the hands of consumers.

Behind every reel, bag and pouch lies careful consideration: the right material, reliable seals, consistent print quality and a structure designed to perform throughout production, filling, storage and transportation.

At Packaging World, we’re proud to play our part in developing dependable flexible-packaging solutions while continuing to pursue smarter, more responsible ways to package the products people rely on.

Today, we celebrate the important role packaging plays in protecting products, supporting businesses and connecting communities around the world.

Happy World Packaging Day from the Packaging World team.

Choosing the right substrate is about more than thickness.

GSM, specific gravity and film properties can all influence printability, lamination, sealing, yield, cost and final packaging performance.

Understanding these differences is key to selecting the right material for the job.
