Osostspa Continues to Manage Glass Bottle Waste Together with SET and partners for the Second Year

Osotspa joined hands with The Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET) and 13 partners continue to drive the ‘Zero Waste Station @ Bang Kachao River Bend Year 3’, a campaign under Care the Whale at Wat Chak Daeng for the second consecutive year, aiming to build environmental sustainability via waste management, quality of life enhancement, and community engagement. This year, more categories of waste are included, while promoting community participation particularly schools, and Subdistrict Administrative Organization (SAO), as well as providing more products and services for waste redemption, at Bang Kachao River Bend area, Samut Prakan province (east of Bangkok).

Ms. Sutida Siamharn, Head of Corporate Communication and CSR, Osotspa Public Company Limited said that the company continues to focus on the management of glass bottle waste in the Circular Economy model, taking into consideration the glass bottle waste, which is one of the packaging materials of Osotspa products to reduce the use of natural resources to produce new glass bottles. This year, the company still offers products as gifts based on the gross weight of glass bottle waste and also liaises with recycling companies to buy glass bottle waste from Chak Daeng temple for recycle.

The zero waste station has created the synergy of the Bang Kachao River Bend community and welcomes the community dwellers to turn their trash for consumer products at the station via three channels: Chak Daeng temple in Samut Prakan province, the zero waste mobile station at Bang Nam Phueng market every Saturday at 1 p.m., and "instant zero waste station" with electric tricycles to pick up the garbage and deliver consumer products at homes to facilitate the community dwellers. In addition, individuals, entities, and shops nearby this community are invited to participate in this “zero waste” operation by sorting out different types of waste and then delivered to Chak Daeng temple to be recycled to minimize garbage in landfill (Zero Waste to landfill), eventually reducing global warming.
