Another example of a business making a difference in their community is Interplast, a Greek company known for producing integrated water supply, heating, air conditioning, and drainage systems.
At the heart of Interplast’s CSR initiatives is Ms. Zoe Rizopoulou, supported by her father. They lead efforts to build strong relationships within the local community and the wider region of Eastern Macedonia and Thrace. Together, they develop the company’s CSR roadmap and implement impactful initiatives in several key areas:
Responsible financial management is the foundation of their approach, ensuring sound economic practices. Environmental management is a priority, focusing on reducing pollutants and minimising environmental impact.
Their commitment to the community is evident through active participation in cultural and social activities. They support first responders by rewarding firefighters and donating essential equipment like masks, showcasing their dedication to public safety.
Promoting sustainability, they organise a forum with the Technical Chamber of Thrace and the Municipality of Komotini to focus on energy saving. Their regional collaboration involves continuous communication, supporting the region’s growing industrial sector. Their community engagement is underscored by organising a large-scale forum in Komotini with 700 guests from all over Greece.
Education is another pillar as they work with regional universities to establish a new department, highlighting their belief in the power of education. Finally, partnering with organisations like the local church strengthens their community ties and demonstrates their support for diverse institutions. Through their dedication, collaborative spirit, and local initiatives, Interplast is making a positive and lasting impact on their community and region.
