The goal is to elevate operational standards with partners while extending sustainable practices to broader networks of stakeholders.

Thai Beverage Can Ltd. (TBC), a leading manufacturer of aluminium beverage packaging in Thailand and Southeast Asia, continues its commitment to sustainability by promoting the recycling of used aluminium beverage cans through the “Recycle for Life” project. Launched in 2022, the initiative supports the Prostheses Foundation of H.R.H. the Princess Mother by encouraging the collection and recycling of used aluminium cans. The collected cans are sold and recycled into new can, contributing to a circular economy while generating funds to support the Foundation’s operations.

TBC collaborates with a wide range of partners from the public sector, private companies, and non-profit organizations, including the Prostheses Foundation, the Department of Climate Change and Environment, the 3R Foundation (Resources Management for Sustainability Foundation), the Thai Beverage Industry Association (TBA), Thai Beverage Recycle Co., Ltd., Thai Beverage Public Co., Ltd., TCP Group, ThaiNamthip Corporation Public Co., Ltd., Haad Thip Public Co., Ltd., and Channel 7HD. Together, we aim to collect 4.8 million used aluminium cans by the end of this year, with the goal of donating 100 prosthetic legs to underprivileged individuals with disabilities. The collected cans will be recycled in a closed-loop system known as the Aluminium Loop, allowing them to be transformed into new cans continuously.

A key highlight of the Recycle for Life project is the collaborative charity event “We Can Run: Fund for Legs,” a walk-run mini-marathon, held this year for the second time at Sanam Luang, Bangkok. With over 5,000 participants, the event collected more than 116,000 cans—equivalent to over 1,700 kilograms—donated by the public and participating organizations. This outcome reflects strong public awareness and collective effort in recognizing the value of aluminium cans, recycling, and supporting people with disabilities.

As a leader in aluminium beverage packaging production, TBC aspires for “Recycle for Life” to be a powerful driver of environmental and social transformation. The company is committed to expanding its network of partners to foster meaningful, long-term, and sustainable aluminium packaging recycling efforts.

On 29-30 March 2025, Thai Beverage Can Limited. (TBC) participated as an exhibitor in the Year 2 “We Can Run: Fund for Legs” charity mini marathon, under the Recycle for Life initiative, in support of the Prostheses Foundation of H.R.H. The Princess Mother. The event was held at the central square of Sanam Luang, Phra Nakhon District, Bangkok. The campaign aims to support the production of 100 prosthetic legs, valued at over 2,500,000 THB, for underprivileged individuals with disabilities.

TBC received a certificate of recognition as an official supporter of the event, which was presented by Mr. Pavich Kesavawong, Deputy Director-General of the Department of Climate Change and Environment. Ms. Kitiya Santaveesuk, TBC’s Head of Sustainability, accepted the certificate on behalf of the company on Expo Day, 29 March 2025.

TBC was represented by Mr. Pavin Chayavivatkul, Vice President Corporate Strategy, and Ms. Kitiya Santaveesuk, Head of Sustainability, along with proud TBC staff who actively participated in the socially impactful initiative.

The event also set an ambitious goal of collecting 4.8 million used aluminium cans for recycling, contributing to an endless cycle of aluminium reuse and generating proceeds for the Prostheses Foundation. TBC continues to expand its aluminium can collection network through 192 Big C branches nationwide, under the “Recycle for Life” campaign. This effort is projected to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by over 570 tons of CO₂ equivalent, compared to manufacturing cans from new raw materials, significantly promoting a more environmentally friendly society.

The event was certified as a Carbon Neutral Event, with 87.6 tons of CO₂ equivalent emissions offset through Thailand’s Voluntary Emission Reduction Program, resulting in net-zero greenhouse gas emissions—truly making it a meaningful activity that unites public support for both social good and environmental sustainability.
