Values

Our history

We are the only company in the Šiauliai region where the majority of employees are people with visual impairments. Our history began in 1953, when blind people, brought together by Petras Žalis and Julius Balius, started to produce plywood containers for the needs of the Elnis factory. This marked the beginning of the Šiauliai branch of the Panevėžys Production Training Combine of the Lithuanian Society of the Blind.

In 1956, the LAD Šiauliai Production Training Combine was established, and in 1960, the first Combine was built in Šiauliai with the Society’s funds. This legacy of the Society continues to serve our company today.

In 1989, the combine was renamed the LASS Šiauliai Company, and in 2005 we reorganised our structure and became the Public Institution “Aksida”, where we have been successfully continuing our activities until today.

Reviews

In the year and a half of daily cooperation with Aksida, I have not heard a single NO. They are always flexible to our requested order quantities and deadlines, consult and look for opportunities. The products we pack require meticulous, responsible work and we have never had a single comment from our customers about our packaging. More... This shows that Aksida's employees not only declare that quality is their priority, but also prove it with their work. Smooth, timely and pleasant communication also contributes to a good cooperation result. I can definitely recommend Aksida without hesitation as a reliable partner for cooperation.

This is the third year of our cooperation with Aksida. We made the decision to use Aksida's services without hesitation after our first visit to the production facilities. The presentation did not raise any doubts and we are still very happy and appreciative of the opportunity to cooperate. The easy, quick communication with management and especially the ability of production to reorient and adapt to our fluctuating needs are very relevant. Often we cannot anticipate increases or decreases in production flows in rope manufacturing, so your ability to adapt quickly to our changing needs is crucial. Thank you for being there!

Flexibility, pleasant and warm communication, focus on quality and customer needs! These are the words we would use to describe your company and your employees.
