Teqal, a leading manufacturer of rigid plastic packaging servicing the Cosmetic, Personal Care and Industrial markets, has always been committed to finding ways to reduce their environmental footprint. Teqal strive to be a sustainable and learning company, and we have been able to do this due to our strategic partners in eDeaf, WILDTRUST, Dube Tradeport, OVS Solutions and the Plastics SA Academy For Learning & Development.

“We are proud to have deaf employees as part of our team,” said Sean Kirkham, Director of Teqal. “Their talent brings diversity to our workforce, and we are committed to providing them with a supportive and inclusive workplace. eDeaf have provided the support we need to make this possible.”

But Teqal’s commitment to our deaf employees goes beyond just job placement.

‘We have also worked closely with Plastics SA Academy For Learning & Development (PFSA), who have done a stellar job accommodating our deaf employees, who are doing NQF training. Their commitment is paramount to the successful training of our employees, and they have gone to great lengths to accommodate our deaf employees.  We are most grateful for their support.’
