Uflex Organizing Stairs School Football League (SSFL) Delhi – Season 2

Uflex, the packaging business of India, is figured for its Corporate Social Responsibility exercises and starting late in news is the association's sponsorship of the Stairs School Football League (SSFL) Delhi – Season. The affiliation is sorted out to pursue leading footballers who require the right stage to showcase their capacity. SSFL outfits them with the opportunity to make to national and overall football classes. Uflex has vowed a 5 year support for SSFL.

SSFL – Delhi saw enthusiasm from more than 6,000 youths across more than 288 schools in the National Capital Region in its second season. It started with at the end of the day 60 grassroots spotting camps over the four zones in Delhi. 592 matches were battled in a period spreading more than 100 days with collaboration from 288 gatherings. In a beginning, 32 young women's gatherings also took an enthusiasm for SSFL Delhi – 2 squaring up the gender diversity. In this process, STAIRS has been able to shortlist over 350 promising footballers for professional training. Over 150 underprivileged children including 52 girls were spotted and trained by STAIRS through the widely spread grassroots camps across Delhi.

4 winning teams – one each from Under 14 Girls, Under 14 Boys, Under 17 Girls, Under 17 Boys lifted the majestic gold plated Champions Trophy while the runners-up received the grand Silver Trophy. Both trophies are the running trophies and will remain with the winning teams’ school until the beginning of the SSFL 2016. The ceremony also witnessed 20 talented players who received the Golden Boot and Ball trophy. Individual prizes were given to 4 Best Strikers, 4 Best Defenders, 4 Best Goalkeepers, 4 Best Midfielders and 4 most promising players, one each for boys and girls in their respective age categories.

Mr. Ashok Chaturvedi, Chairman & Managing Director, Uflex Limited in an official statement said that nothing bonds people better than sports bringing out all emotions to the fore. He is a firm believer that Sport is a medium that helps furthering the cause of national integration. It doesn’t get better than starting at early adolescence like SSFL does. The adrenaline rush on both sides builds up the real climax and then the best team wins. Winning or losing the game is not important, as long as true sportsmanship rules the roost. Uflex is in the business of flexible packaging and he exactly understands the merit of sports in packaging and shaping up the personalities of these budding sportspersons.

He was particularly elated to learn about the participation from girls. Today children are creating miracles on Indian soil. Tomorrow they will win laurels for our country across the globe. This is just the beginning. He congratulated all the participants of SSFL-Delhi, their family members and coaches for putting up a spectacular show over the last 100 days. He was glad with the partnership between Uflex and STAIRS for this meaningful endeavor and he is looking forward to more exciting and successful SSFL seasons in the years that follow.

Speaking at the closing ceremony, Mr. Siddhartha Upadhyay, Founder and Secretary General, STAIRS said that today when the whole world is converging as a global village, SSFL is looked up to as one of the most promising football talent scouting platforms by clubs and bodies seeking to acquire talent right at early adolescence. While many officials and individuals from professional bodies keep their eyes on the budding players during the matches, selectors from international foreign clubs watch ‘live streaming’ of important matches and even call for recorded videos to assess the performance of promising players. STAIR’s efforts are focused at fulfilling children’s universal right to play; create opportunities for them to showcase their sporting talent and also nourish and nurture the promising players. The ultimate aim is to provide India with a pool of players who will ensure that we win at international competitions and make the whole country proud. In the process of scouting and training, the change in children’s personality, the positivity in their lives and the happiness that STAIRS is spreading are clearly the by-products of the engagement. It is extremely heartening to see the second season of SSFL being a whopping success. He firmly believes that season 3 will bet yet better and bigger in all respects.

Uflex Ltd won Silver Award for Packaging Innovation 2015

Uflex Ltd

‪‎Uflex Ltd won a Silver Award at the ‪‎DuPont Awards for Packaging innovation 2015. The FLEX SAFE PACK is a Moisture Proof Bag designed to protect product in the cement industry.

The cement industry in India is the fourth largest in the world, but more than 3% of the cement produced is lost in the supply chain. This loss is largely attributed to the cement bags being stored in open environments across the supply chain, making them vulnerable to damages caused due to exposure of cement bags to rain, unpredictable outdoor conditions and extreme climate.

The Flex SafePack is specially designed to provide a barrier to moisture and water from entering into the bag, helping the cement withstand harsh environments and maintain its full functionality over an extended period of shelf life.

In developing the SafePack, UFLEX had to address two conflicting requirements: providing de-airation holes required for air to escape during filling and prohibiting moisture from entering into the bags during transportation. UFLEX was able to achieve this challenge through optimized nano-embossing over a flexible extrusion layer. This technological achievement also allows high definition graphics of up to 10 color printing, giving a premium look to a commodity product.
