Coroplast Global | News | 07 Apr 2025 Girls'Day 2025: Exciting insights for young female talents

We want to attract more young female talents to our diverse range of technical apprenticeship opportunities. That's why we were particularly pleased to welcome seven female students at the beginning of April, who were given an exciting insight into the electrical workshop as part of Girls‘Day.

We support girls – free from gender stereotypes

On 3 April, it was that time again: on this Girls‘Day, we had the opportunity to get young girls interested in the diverse technical professions – a field in which there are still significantly more men than women working, including in our company.  

Exciting insights into the world of technology  

In order to reduce this gender gap, we invited female students to spend an exciting day in our electronics department together with our contact person for young talents and our apprentices. The visitors were given an exclusive look behind the scenes and were able to accompany our specialists in their work. This gave them a vivid impression of the diverse activities in the electronics industry.  

Gaining practical experience  

In addition to the theoretical insights, the girls also had the opportunity to become active themselves. In a practical workshop, they assembled an electronic hourglass under the guidance of our apprentices and soldered the kit – a small but challenging task. The results were impressive and testify to the skills and commitment of the young participants. 

Exchange at eye level  

Of course, there was also plenty of opportunity for dialogue: after an intensive and informative morning, we met up with the students for lunch in the company restaurant. In a relaxed atmosphere, we took the opportunity to share our impressions and experiences.

The students were fully engaged and were able to learn how to use a soldering iron in our electronics area, for example.

Girls‘Day at the Coroplast Group opens doors to exciting prospects outside the traditional female professions. It shows that technology and science do not recognise gender roles. We are pleased to be able to show the girls precisely these perspectives.

I really enjoyed doing different things that you might not try in private. I also think it was great how you got to know new things. The staff were very friendly.

The idea behind Girls‘Day

On Girls‘Day, students aged 12 and older have the opportunity to get to know STEM professions (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) and meet female role models in leadership positions. The focus is on professions in which the proportion of women is below 40 per cent.
