On November 9, 2022, Thai Beverage Can Co., Ltd. or TBC, celebrated its 25th anniversary, pushing ahead with the TBC SG 2030 business plan towards a sustainable organization. They aim to use 85% recycled aluminium by 2030 and are investing 2.9 billion baht to establish the first aluminium bottle production factory in Thailand using the new DWI technology. This technology will produce thin aluminium bottles, a first in Thailand for the regional market, set to commence commercial operations in August 2023. This move is expected to increase the proportion of used aluminium cans being recycled. Additionally, TBC is committed to improving the quality of life for people with disabilities through the “Recycle for Life” project, supporting the Prostheses Foundation.

Saroch Chayavivatkul, Managing Director of Thai Beverage Can Co., Ltd. (TBC), shared that in marking TBC’s 25th anniversary and stepping into the 26th year, the company is ready to continue expanding its business and product development in Thailand. With long-term strategies and goals, TBC aims to elevate business operations towards sustainable development based on social, economic, and environmental responsibilities, known as the TBC Sustainability Goals 2030 or TBC SG 2030. This aligns with the BCG Model (Bio Economy, Circular Economy, Green Economy) policy for sustainable development and achieving Net Zero Emissions for the country.

In achieving these goals, the company focuses on product development with modern technology that can reduce the thickness of aluminium material while maintaining strength, known as DWI (Drawing and Wall Ironing Bottles Cans). This technology aligns with current and future consumer directions, especially in the new factory currently under construction in a 54 Rai in Nong Khae, Saraburi, to produce new-model aluminium bottles for the regional market. The factory, with an annual production capacity of 200 million bottles, is set to be the first of its kind in Southeast Asia.

Thailand’s first aluminium bottle manufacturing factory with an investment of over 2.9 billion baht.

“Our beverage packaging products focus on using aluminium because it is a material that can be 100% recycled, known as Closed-Loop recycling, which is a type of recycling that forms a closed loop. TBC is the only one in Southeast Asia that can recycle comprehensively, aligning with our TBC SG 2030 strategy which focuses on 22 main aspects: Product Stewardship and Social Impact. We aim to increase the aluminium content in our products, which currently comprises 70% recycled material, and expect to reach 85% by the year 2030, the highest rate in the packaging sector,” said Saroch.

Over the years, the company has focused on meeting consumer demands, becoming a major aluminium can producer in the country, and exporting to neighboring nations. Committed to being a sustainable packaging business leader, TBC plays a vital role in using environmentally friendly products for producing endlessly eco-friendly recyclable aluminium cans (Closed-Loop recycling) that are safe and sanitary for consumption under the Circular Economy principles.

However, to ensure efficient and complete recycling processes, TBC collaborated with leading Thai universities for over 2 years, studying and researching the lifecycle of various packaging. The research found that 88% of used aluminium cans are collected, which is a high number but suggests room for improvement, indicating consumer awareness and prioritization of waste sorting, especially valuable aluminium cans for continuous recycling.

“We are committed to managing used aluminium cans efficiently and completely, working with the government, community, and private sector to promote the collection of used cans for recycling into new cans, ensuring 100% utilization and preventing environmental waste,” Saroch added.

Noom-Thapana Sirivadhanabhakdi, CEO and President of Thai Beverage Public Company Limited, received the TBC SD Report or the Sustainability Report of Thai Beverage Can Limited from Mr. Saroch Chayavivatkul, Managing Director of Thai Beverage Can Limited.

Furthermore, TBC actively implements projects to improve quality of life and build a better society, particularly the “Recycle for Life for the Prostheses Foundation” project. This includes accepting donations of aluminium can tabs and cans through the “Recycle for Life for the Prostheses Foundation” project and converting them into funds to purchase suitable aluminium for prosthetic production for the Prostheses Foundation of H.R.H. The Princess Mother. Those interested can donate tabs and cans, without needing to separate the tabs, at Big C shopping mall nationwide over 190 branches and other participating stores across the country starting now.

On November 9, 2022, TBC celebrated a significant milestone, marking its 25th anniversary along with the official unveiling of the company’s new logo.

The day was marked by a traditional blessing ceremony at the company’s shrine and a monk ceremony to bring good fortune to all executives and employees. Highlights of the day included speeches, the unveiling of the new company logo, and the hoisting of the new logo flag by TBC executives.

The celebration concluded with a Happy Birthday activity for TBC’s 25th anniversary, where executives and employees joyfully sang together and enjoyed lunch.

The celebration was filled with warmth as the TBC family reflected on the company’s journey and robust growth. At the same time, everyone is ready to move forward, leading TBC towards a path of sustainability and modernization.

On October 20, 2022, the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment, through the Department of Environmental Quality Promotion, launched the “Recycle for Life” project to support the Prostheses Foundation. This project aims to enhance waste management from the source, recycle it for societal benefits, and contribute to the Prostheses Foundation of H.R.H. The Princess Mother, turning old aluminium cans into “prosthetics.”

The launch of the “Recycle for Life” project for the Prostheses Foundation of H.R.H. The Princess Mother is a project designed to encourage the public to recycle used aluminium drink cans, converting them into valuable support for the Foundation’s operations. This collaboration involves 9 agencies from government, private sectors, and industry groups, including the Department of Environmental Quality Promotion, the Pollution Control Department, the Prostheses Foundation, the 3R Foundation, the Thai Beverage Industry Association, Thai Beverage Can Limited, Thai Beverage Recycling Co., Ltd., the BJC Big C Group, and the Wongpanit Suvarnabhumi Recycle Station Co., Ltd.

The goal is to collect 1,800,000 used aluminium cans for recycling. The project’s approach includes increasing awareness activities for interested participants and campaigning for the public to sort used aluminium cans, educating about aluminium material donations, and expanding donation channels for greater public access. Additionally, collecting aluminium for recycling through a network of collectors can transform it into monetary value at the purchasing price, supporting the procurement of equipment and expenses for prosthetic production and the operations of the foundation in honor of Her Royal Highness Princess.

This event is a key collaboration between the government, private sector, entrepreneurs, and consumers to manage waste from the outset, use resources efficiently for maximum benefit, encourage recycling, and raise awareness in society, leading to the creation of a shared recycling community. Everyone can start by prioritizing the use of eco-friendly packaging, involving packaging manufacturers, product makers, consumers, and recyclers to conserve the country’s natural resources and environment, changing lifestyles to minimize environmental impact. Additionally, it seeks cooperation from all citizens as consumers to collect used aluminium drink cans, converting them into funds to support the operations of the foundation in honor of Her Royal Highness Princess. – Mr. Somsak Sappakosolkul, Director-General of the Department of Environmental Quality Promotion, concluded.

On October 17, 2022 TBC employees joined a volunteer activity aimed at community and social development towards sustainability at Wat Bua Loi School (Samakki Songkroh), improving the school’s environment by painting building walls and areas around them, cleaning and painting the restrooms, and replacing and painting new signs where needed.

   

This event is part of the TBC SG 2030 plan, aimed at sustainability based on social, economic, and environmental responsibilities, catering to the needs of all stakeholders, and promoting the country’s development strategy towards a sustainable economy, the BCG Model, an economic model for Thailand’s sustainable development. The strategy for Product Stewardship: Climate Leader focuses on leading climate change initiatives, with long-term goals for sustainable organizational management. It aims to elevate business practices towards “sustainable development” grounded in responsibility towards society, economy, and environment, to meet the needs of all stakeholders.
