Today, consumer behavior trends are not only focusing on "health and wellness", but also expanding to "conscious consumption." Consumers are not only concerned for their health but also care about the environment. This creates an attitude of "What is good for the earth is good for me too." Therefore, consumers are more likely to look for products that are good for their health and, at the same time, environmentally friendly.
Beverages are daily consumer goods sold in large volume, creating a lot of used packaging. As a beverage manufacturer, Osotspa emphasizes packaging management to help reduce its impact on the environment. Most of Osotspa's beverage products are packed in glass bottles and aluminum cans which are recyclable to help reduce waste and meet the consumer needs for quality products that do not harm the environment.
Apart from packaging management in production, Osotspa also focuses on recycling packaging to reduce waste. A recycling center was opened in Saraburi to receive used packaging for recycling. When used glass bottles and aluminum cans are delivered to the center, they will go through a systematic separation and classification process to make the most use of every item. For instance, glass bottles and glass scrap will be transformed into raw materials to produce new glass bottles. This enables a significant reduction in the use of energy and natural resources. The sorted aluminum lids will be combined with cans and sent to a factory specializing in aluminum recycling. Furthermore, ongoing packaging design is aimed at reducing its impact on the environment. Currently, the liner in almost all the caps of our glass bottles is recyclable, while the labels used on most bottles are paper.
Since opening the recycling center in late 2019, a large amount of used glass bottles and aluminum has been recycled. The center then expanded its capacity. The Company also partnered up with Wongpanit Group (Garbage Separation Plant), recycling and garbage management industry leader, to improve the capability of sourcing used glass bottles.
Being an important part of the Company's waste management policy that is applied across the value chain, packaging recycling contributes to the achievement of zero landfill waste from manufacturing operation in 2019. We are one of the few companies in Thailand who can achieve this high level of sustainable responsibility.
"Osotspa is committed to running a business with minimal impact on the environment. Therefore, we focus on packaging management and effective packaging circulation that is in line with the circular economy principles, especially for packaging of beverages, the main products of Osotspa, for efficient resource management and sustainability," said Mrs. Wannipa Bhakdibutr, President of Osotspa Public Company Limited.
