Our 2030 Commitments
Cleaning, repairing, and reselling jute sacks for the agriculture industry was the original purpose of our company at our foundation in 1953. To this day, our dedication to reusing materials and reducing waste while fulfilling our customers’ every need remain the same.
One World, One Mission
"Because we care" are not just empty words to us at ABENA. We care about the people we affect through our business, every single day. We care about future generations and minimizing our environmental impact. We care for our customers and everything they do for others.
Our commitment to care

Decent work and economic growth
We source the world and have the potential to affect thousands of jobs. Towards 2030, we want to increase our workforce while securing safe and equal working conditions for our own employees and our suppliers' employees.

SDG 15
Life on land
We have a responsibility to choose wisely when it comes to selecting raw materials. That is why we towards 2030 aim to reduce the loss of extinction due to human activities.
