Where Does Plastic Garbage Go TH

Recycling old plastics for a new world

Plastic is a material that is commonly found in our daily lives, from food packaging to household items to electronic devices. Plastic is made from petroleum, which is a compound of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. The production process of plastic pellets starts with petroleum refining to separate out various compounds. These compounds are then processed through various processes to obtain plastic pellets that can be used to produce a variety of other products, for example:

  • Polyethylene (PE) is the most common type of plastic pellet. It is used to make food packaging, toys, and plastic bags.
  • Polypropylene (PP) is known for its heat and tensile strength. It is used to make food packaging, plastic bags, and water pipes.
  • Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is known for its chemical resistance. It is used to make water pipes, electrical insulation, and furniture.

What effect of new plastic on the environment? And several ways to reduce the use of new plastic:

Due to the increase in the world's population and various industries, the demand for new plastics has also increased significantly. This has an unavoidable impact on the environment. This is because the production process of plastic pellets requires a lot of energy and natural resources. In addition, plastic waste is a major environmental problem because it takes hundreds of years to decompose. Therefore, many methods to reduce the use of new plastics have been developed, such as:

  • Recycle plastic. Recycling plastic reduces the amount of plastic waste and the number of natural resources needed to produce new plastic pellets.
  • Develop environmentally friendly packaging. Environmentally friendly packaging, such as packaging made from natural materials or packaging that can be biologically decomposed, reduces the impact on the environment.

TPBI is committed to the environment by implementing sustainable environmental initiatives, including:

  • Developing environmentally friendly packaging, such as packaging made from Post Consumer Recycled resin, packaging that made from natural materials, such as paper, wood pulp, or natural plants, or packaging that can be biologically decomposed.
  • Improving production standards to a green packaging industry. The company is committed to developing more efficient production processes to reduce energy and natural resource consumption, reduce pollution, and reduce plastic waste.
  • The company is committed to research, development, and new innovations to develop more environmentally friendly packaging. The company has invested in the TPBI Research Center to be the center for research and development of new packaging innovations.
  • Promoting consumer participation in recycling through the "Won" project, which encourages Thai people to recycle plastic bags. The company has partnered with the government and private sectors to set up plastic bag recycling points in many parts of the country.

Important changes for TPBI inspections from various organizations, such as the Thailand Sustainability Investment (THSI) award from agencies that received the Green Industry Award from the Department of Industrial Works.

TPBI Company continuously monitors business operations that cause environmental impacts of singers, helping to create a society where living conditions can be continued for future generations as our vision - Think Circular Think Sustainable.
