Investing in the Next Generation Through Ardagh for Education

Fostering long-term innovation and sustainability in the packaging industry starts with empowering young minds. Ardagh Group recognises this through Ardagh for Education, a broad initiative aimed at building early awareness and developing future skills in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). 

Spanning primary schools to university partnerships, Ardagh for Education offers tailored programmes that reflect the company's belief in inclusive and impactful learning. In schools, Ardagh supports hands-on STEM activities and learning resources, often led by employee volunteers who share real-world insights from the manufacturing and engineering sectors. These interactions spark curiosity and bring career possibilities to life for students of all backgrounds. 

At the secondary and tertiary levels, Ardagh partners with educational institutions to offer scholarships, work placements, and mentoring opportunities. University students can engage in research collaborations or gain practical experience through internships at Ardagh’s global facilities. 

By connecting classroom learning with industry practice, Ardagh for Education bridges the gap between education and employment, while supporting community development. The initiative underlines Ardagh’s long-standing commitment to investing in education, not only as a corporate responsibility but as a strategic imperative for shaping the industry’s future.
