3. Recycle: The solution facilitates the recycling of Thailand’s post-consumer plastics, thus, reducing waste and resources consumption. In the procedure, sorted and cleaned
post-consumer plastics are processed to become high-quality Post-Consumer Recycled Resin: PCR resins possessing qualities that meet consumer demands. The PCR resins are certified by the Global Recycled Standard (GRS), a global standard for the sources of raw materials for the production of recycled plastic resins. Also, in the determination to develop and expand the recycled plastic market to other regions, SCGC has collaborated with local and international expert partners in recycling. The venture involves Teamplas, Thailand’s leading manufacturer of recycled plastic pellets for 30 years, Suez, Europe’s forefront in recycled plastics, and Sirplaste, the largest plastic recycler in Portugal.
Additionally, the plastics that may have not been properly sorted are processed in the Advanced Recycling technology. Here, they turn to recycled feedstock in petrochemical plants for plastic resins production. Their properties are on par with virgin plastics and are accredited in the ISCC PLUS standard by the International Sustainability and Carbon Certification (ISCC). This is Thailand’s first company to obtain this leading internationally acclaimed sustainability certificate.
