Siegwerk Thailand receives circular economy award

The Industry Awards are presented every year, but the new Circular Economy category focuses on cost-effective use of resources, considering the use of sustainable materials as much as possible, aiming to reduce pollution and environmental impacts sustainably by developing a stable economy along with preserving the environment and natural resources of the country.

Siegwerk Thailand applied for the award in February 2021 and had to undergo a three-stage vetting process, including a site audit, to qualify for the prize. In the application, Siegwerk Thailand highlighted innovations to facilitate recyclability in packaging, awareness-raising for paperization, deinking/delamination technologies, collaboration with value chain partners for circularity and commitment to product safety, among other achievements.

‘This award builds the pride of the company and all employees as part of its success and drives our company to continue to develop. We will also be an agent to raise awareness for partners as well as society, to focus on the circular economy in a sustainable way,’ said Tussanee Leevongwat, entity manager for Thailand and head of human resources for Siegwerk Southeast Asia.
