At RKW we live sustainability.

Plastics are an essential part of everyday life. Breathable films protect babies’ sensitive skin, agricultural films increase yields, and plastic packaging protects food from damage or spoiling. And what is more, comparatively little harmful CO2 is emitted during the production and processing of films.

Strengthening and further developing the circular economy is therefore the most important lever for creating a sustainable perspective for plastics. Key success factors in achieving this are making the most efficient possible use of this valuable raw material, developing products that are easy to recycle, and – last but not least – systematically expanding plastic recycling along the entire process chain.

This results in sustainable solutions that make the lives of consumers all over the world that little bit easier, sustainable solutions that we are committed to producing every single day, together with our customers, suppliers, and partners.

RKW NA in Franklin organized a food drive to support the community

Food drives are a great way to involve your colleagues, friends and family in the fight to end hunger and food scarcity.
„RKW North America is based in Franklin, Kentucky and we are a part of a great community. Employees proposed to host a traditional food drive and Caleb Haedden, Process Engineer coordinated with the local Community Church in Franklin, Kentucky to distribute the collected food to those in need.
A great idea, not only because of the upcoming holiday giving season, which also strengthens our ties with the community. With widespread support from RKW employees, over 135 lbs of non-perishable foods was collected and an additional $270 was donated to the St. Vincent De Paul Society food pantry in nearby by Bowling Green, KY.
“There are many in the community in need of basic food items. It just made sense to help support the community that welcomes and supports our company“, Matt O´Sickey, Site Director Franklin, Kentucky
