									<p>To address climate change, large-scale deforestation, and their harmful impacts on biodiversity, the European Union has introduced <strong>a new regulation aimed at protecting forests by fighting deforestation</strong>.

The regulation <strong>bans the import and sale within the EU of products linked to supply chains that contribute to deforestation</strong> or the degradation of global forest ecosystems.

									Deforestation is progressing at a troubling pace, with <strong>420 million hectares of forests lost between 1990 and 2020</strong>. This process accounts for <strong>11% of global greenhouse gas (GHG)</strong> emissions, further intensifying climate change. By eliminating crucial carbon sinks, deforestation not only raises GHG emissions but <strong>also erodes biodiversity</strong>. In addition to its environmental impact, forest <strong>destruction affects local communities</strong>, especially Indigenous peoples who depend on forests for their livelihoods.								</div>

									<p>The European Deforestation Regulation targets <strong>7 main products that have the biggest impact on forests</strong>: soy, palm oil, cocoa, coffee, wood, rubber and livestock.<br />For the packaging industry, including companies like Bong, this means <strong>new requirements for tracking raw materials and transparency in the supply chain</strong>. Packaging manufacturers need to work closely with their paper suppliers to <strong>trace the origin of paper and cardboard (which comes from wood) to ensure their supply chains are not linked to deforestation</strong>.

				<div class="elementor-post__excerpt">
			<p>De PPWR werd onderworpen aan een stemming door het Europees Parlement op 22 november 2023. Het doel ervan is om een geünificeerd wettelijk kader vast te stellen voor alle lidstaten van de Europese Unie, met als oogmerk om gezamenlijk de doelstellingen voor afvalvermindering te halen. We gaan dieper in op de belangrijkste maatregelen en verplichtingen die zijn vastgelegd door de PPWR voor Europese landen en economische organisaties.</p>

				Top 10 Belangrijke Maatregelen van de Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR)			</a>
		</h3>
				<div class="elementor-post__excerpt">
			<p>De PPWR werd onderworpen aan een stemming door het Europees Parlement op 22 november 2023. Het doel ervan is om een geünificeerd wettelijk kader vast te stellen voor alle lidstaten van de Europese Unie, met als oogmerk om gezamenlijk de doelstellingen voor afvalvermindering te halen. We gaan dieper in op de belangrijkste maatregelen en verplichtingen die zijn vastgelegd door de PPWR voor Europese landen en economische organisaties.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1>Bong werkt samen met de ESAT van Eure om toegang tot de arbeidsmarkt voor iedereen te bevorderen</h1>
<p>Al bijna twee jaar werken <b>Bong en de ESAT van Eure samen</b> om <b>inclusie en toegang tot de arbeidsmarkt voor iedereen te promoten</b>. Dit partnerschap bestaat op lange termijn en <b>neemt </b><strong>twee vormen aan:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>
										Het verwelkomen van mensen met een beperking in de Bong light packaging fabriek in Saint-Sébastien-de-Morsent, Frankrijk
									</li>
<li>
										Het installeren van Bong-machines voor afwerking bij ESAT
									</li>
</ul>
<p>Deze samenwerking komt<b> zowel het bedrijf als de werknemers met een arbeidsbeperking ten goede</b>. Terwijl dit partnerschap mensen met een beperking in staat stelt <b>hun vaardigheden te ontwikkelen en te integreren in de arbeidsmarkt</b>, stimuleert het ook de Bong werknemers om een handicap <b>met andere ogen te bekijken.</b></p>

<h2>Bong verwelkomt werknemers met een handicap in haar fabriek in de buurt van Evreux, in Normandië</h2>
<p>Vanaf vandaag, en sinds september 2022, <b>werken er verschillende mensen met een arbeidsbeperking in de werkplaats van Bong</b> in Saint-Sébastien-de-Morsent, Normandië. Ze voeren taken uit zoals het <b>handmatig afwerken</b>, invoegen en verpakken van producten. De integratie van ESAT-werknemers bij Bong gebeurt geleidelijk. Elke <b>nieuwe werknemer van ESAT krijgt een Bong-mentor</b> toegewezen om een succesvolle aanpassing aan de professionele omgeving te garanderen. Deze aanpak is afgestemd op de aard van elke beperking en <b>vereist soms de implementatie van nieuwe hulpmiddelen om optimale werkomstandigheden te garanderen</b>.  Bong is trots op deze langdurige relatie die niet alleen werknemers met een beperking helpt bij hun integratie op de werkplek, maar ook het bewustzijn onder Bong-medewerkers over de realiteit van een beperking vergroot. </p>

<p>Voor mensen voor wie het niet mogelijk is om zelfstandig in ons productieatelier te werken, heeft Bong <strong>afwerkingsmachines geïnstalleerd rechtstreeks bij ESAT</strong>. Aangezien de 2 faciliteiten tegenover elkaar liggen, heeft deze nabijheid het mogelijk gemaakt om een tweede vorm van partnerschap te ontwikkelen. Gemiddeld werken <b>vijf mensen fulltime</b> aan taken zoals het vouwen van producten, insteken en perforeren om de door Bong vervaardigde producten af te werken.</p>

									<p>Permacultuur wordt vaak ten onrechte gezien als de zoveelste vorm van tuinieren. Maar het is veel meer dan dat!</p><p>Permacultuur is een benadering, een filosofie, een wetenschap en de kunst om <strong>harmonieuze,</strong> <strong>duurzame en veerkrachtige ecosystemen te ontwerpen waarbij de natuur als model wordt gebruikt</strong>. Permacultuurpraktijken hebben als doel om systemen die zowel <strong>arbeids- en energiezuinig</strong> als zeer productief zijn te creëren.</p><p>Kortom, permacultuur betekent werken met en niet tegen de natuur. We laten ons inspireren door de manier waarop de natuur werkt, om zo meer doordacht te kunnen <strong>produceren en tegelijkertijd ook de biodiversiteit te behouden</strong>.</p><p>Hierbij worden een bepaalde ethiek, een reeks principes en methodologische hulpmiddelen samengebracht, die kunnen worden toegepast op tuinen, steden, bedrijven enzovoort.</p><p>Het doel is <strong>om zorg te dragen voor de natuur en mensen, en om resources eerlijk te verdelen</strong>.</p>								</div>

									<p>In 2023 hebben we een echte bedrijfsmoestuin aangelegd die de <strong>werknemers van groenten kan voorzien</strong>. Het bewijst dat tuinieren met collega's veel meer <strong>oplevert dan een goede oogst</strong>. Het is ook een kans om in contact te komen met werknemers die we zelden op het werk tegenkomen, om mensen bewust te maken van het <strong>behoud van biodiversiteit en gezonde voeding</strong>, om een vrijetijdsbesteding in de buitenlucht te hebben, om een <strong>sterker gevoel van verbondenheid</strong> met het bedrijf te ontwikkelen, om contacten te leggen, trainingen te geven over permacultuur en agro-ecologie, en zo veel meer.</p><p>- Judith Lothon, CSR-manager</p>								</div>

									<p>Het jaar 2023, het eerste jaar met een volwaardige moestuin, was een <strong>groot succes onder de Bong-teams</strong>. We oogstten tomaten in alle kleuren en maten, veelkleurige pompoenen, groene en gele courgettes, rode bieten, bonen, aardappelen, sla... <strong>Het kweken van onze eigen groenten en fruit maakt ons erg trots!</strong> Onze werknemers kunnen zelfs genieten van een kerstomaatje bij aankomst op het werk of de aardbeienoogst uitdelen aan collega's.</p>								</div>

									<p>Na een zeer succesvolle oogst in 2023 en met de hulp van onze enthousiaste medewerkers gaan <strong>we ook in 2024 verder met de ontwikkeling van onze bedrijfstuin</strong>. Steeds vergezeld door onze partner, heeft ons team van vrijwilligers opnieuw de tuin schoongemaakt voor nieuwe aanplant, groenten en fruit geplant en zaden en bloemen gezaaid.</p>
<p>Dit jaar heeft de Bong-tuin ook een andere dimensie gekregen met de<strong> bouw van een plantenkas</strong>. Een aantal medewerkers van verschillende afdelingen hebben enkele uren geklust, waardoor we <strong>nieuwe groenten kunnen kweken die minder bestand zijn tegen slecht weer</strong>. Met deze kas kunnen we de tomatenoogst verlengen tot de herfst en groenten zoals paprika's en aubergines planten. De serre zal ons ook beschutting bieden wanneer de Normandische regen zich bij onze sessies voegt.</p>								</div>
