At each of the Group’s production sites, we practice environmentally friendly manufacturing by practicing the concepts of Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle regarding our main raw materials, chemicals, energy, and consumables.
Biomass (rice husk)-derived heat sources are used to reduce the amount of fossil fuels used.
Used chemicals are collected, refined, and reused, and safe water is discharged off-site.
Waste heat is reused in the manufacturing process.
Used packaging materials and pellets are recycled.
