Sappe Public Company Limited (SAPPE) has received a prestigious honorary plaque from Thailand’s Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Thai Listed Companies Association (TLCA) for its outstanding environmental practices through the “Think to Trash” initiative. The program encourages listed companies to take action in waste separation and greenhouse gas reduction—from source to disposal—while strengthening internal collaboration to reduce emissions.
Representing SAPPE, Ms. Natcha Uanpaeng, Corporate Communication Division Manager, accepted the award in recognition of the company’s commitment to sustainability. The core of this effort is SAPPE’s in-house campaign “Separate for Trip,” a fun and engaging initiative that encourages employees to sort waste—such as food scraps, wet waste, recyclables, and hazardous materials—right at the workplace.
To support this initiative, SAPPE developed a dedicated mobile application that allows staff to collect points through proper waste separation. These activities are not only measurable but also help the company calculate actual greenhouse gas reductions. Plastics collected are sent to the “GC YOU Turn” project by PTT Global Chemical, which ensures proper recycling and upcycling of used plastic materials.
This joint effort supports the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 17: Partnerships for the Goals, which emphasizes global collaboration to achieve sustainable development. It also reflects SAPPE’s deep-rooted commitment to environmental responsibility—a core part of its SAPPE DNA.
