Siam Piwat has driven its business with the concept of sustainability, as can be seen in various projects, such as Siam Piwat 360° Waste Journey to Zero Waste, which seeks to achieve closed-loop waste management in accordance with circular economy principles, as well as the launch of Thailand’s first-ever drive-thru drop-off points for cleaned used packaging, which not only promotes waste separation but also helps to systematically bring waste into the management process, so that it can be recycled into raw materials or upcycled for other uses, thus contributing to the restoration of environmental balance.
