CEO Sustainability Award for 2024 Initiatives awarded in 2025

Numerous outstanding projects qualified for the 2024 Sustainability Award, each demonstrating a strong commitment to sustainable practices. A panel conducted a thorough evaluation, carefully reviewing each project. From this selection, the top three were presented to the Sustainable Development and Social Responsibility Committee on the Board. This year, two winners were selected in recognition of the outstanding merit of both projects in both innovation and impact. The committee determined that each initiative demonstrated strong innovation, measurable impact, and alignment with the company’s sustainability and operational excellence objectives. Given the significant value and results achieved by both teams, the decision was made to honour them jointly in acknowledgment of their equally deserving contributions.

Winners of the second CEO Sustainability Award for 2024 are Siniora Food Industries Company Palestine, a team of 17 employees, and Reema Hygienic Paper Company, a team of three employees.

Siniora Food Industries Company Palestine achieves 21% reduction in water use in 2024

A key component of this initiative was the installation of sub-metering systems in critical operational areas, enabling detailed analysis of water consumption patterns and the identification of waste sources. Based on the insights generated, a series of practical water management solutions were implemented, including water recycling systems for production processes such as cooling systems for the R240 and R245 lines, vacuum pumps, cutting equipment, and the reuse of rejected water from reverse osmosis (RO) systems. In addition, advanced and customized nozzles and spraying systems were introduced in high-consumption areas, including cooling showers and thawing rooms, to ensure precise and efficient water use.

To sustain performance, a daily monitoring system was established to track consumption trends, visualize usage patterns, and detect anomalies such as leaks or excessive consumption, enabling rapid corrective actionThese efforts delivered measurable environmental and financial benefits. Total water consumption in 2024 decreased by 21% compared to 2023, while efficiency improved significantly, with water use per ton of production reduced by 803 litres. With annual production reaching approximately 10,000 tons, the improved efficiency generated estimated annual savings of USD 100,000.

This initiative demonstrates how data-driven management and operational innovation can reduce environmental impact while delivering tangible business value.

Reema Hygienic Paper Company engineering innovation eliminates waste and boosts production efficiency

A targeted operational improvement initiative addressed a persistent production challenge caused by the continuous accumulation of dust particles along the production line. The buildup was leading to multiple operational and quality issues, including frequent line stoppages of 100 – 120 minutes per shift, equivalent to approximately 25% of working time. Each restart resulted in additional raw material (paper) waste, reduced efficiency, and lost production capacity.

Dust contamination also affected the glue system, reducing viscosity and clogging pipes. This led to the disposal of approximately 19 kg of glue per day, representing 22% of daily glue consumption, and compromised product adhesion quality, requiring frequent glue replacement to maintain performance.

To address the issue, the technical team implemented an engineering solution within one month by installing a Doctor Blade system with Surface Distribution Control, integrated directly into the machine. This solution effectively prevented dust accumulation and stabilized the gluing process.

The intervention delivered significant operational, environmental, and financial benefits:

Glue waste was reduced to nearly zero, saving approximately 4,700kg annually, saving 22% of annual glue consumption, equivalent to USD 14,000
Reduction in startup paper waste
Improved product quality and bonding performance
Reduced maintenance-related stoppages saving 100 – 120 minutes per shift, increasing available production time by 25%
Overall production capacity increased by 17%
Output increased from 1,758,351 kg of product using 21,844 kg of glue to 2,110,700 kg using only 17,076 kg of glue, increasing glue use efficiency by 54%.

This initiative demonstrates how focused engineering solutions can simultaneously reduce material waste, improve quality, enhance operational efficiency, and deliver measurable cost savings, supporting both productivity and sustainability objectives.

Employee Voice Shapes the Revision of the Employee Manual and Code of Conduct

In preparation for the revision of its Employee Manual and Code of Conduct, APIC launched a Group-wide employee survey to gather direct feedback and ensure that the updated policies reflect the realities, needs, and expectations of its workforce.

The survey aimed to assess employees’ understanding of existing policies, identify areas that require clarification or improvement, and capture suggestions on topics such as workplace conduct, communication, grievance mechanisms, leave provisions, and employee rights and responsibilities.
