Reducing greenhouse gas emissions into the atmosphere is of utmost importance, as these gases are key drivers of climate change, which affects global weather patterns, ecosystems, and all forms of life—including humans, animals, and plants. Recognizing the potential impacts of climate change on business operations and stakeholders, the Company has set a target to achieve net zero greenhouse gas emissions by the year 2050. To accomplish this goal, the Company has developed strategic plans and operational frameworks to guide its actions toward a more sustainable future.
Management Guidelines
The Company has created an account of greenhouse gas emissions in Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3
by using the guidelines according to the carbon footprint calculation,
and reporting requirements of the organization of the TGO and IPCC 2006
Identify significant sources of greenhouse gas emissions and take measures to reduce these emissions through
CarbonFootprint
assessment
Enhance energy efficiency of machinery
in production process to achieve maximum effectiveness
increasing the proportion of
renewable energy
both biomass fuel and electricity from solar energy.
Transition the use of fossil fuels
for vehicles used in the production process from oil to electricity.
Study and develop projects to
reduce and absorb carbon
in the agriculture and forestry sectors to accumulate carbon credits.
Raise awareness among employees to collectively reduce greenhouse gas emissions from both
production processes and daily activities.
Promote understanding among business partners to collaboratively reduce greenhouse gas emissions, covering aspects such as
raw material acquisition
and transportation.
Organize reforestation activities to help
sequester carbon dioxide,
aiming for long-term sustainability.

Key Project
In 2024, the installation of Solar Floating Projects at the Thung Song, Sikao, and Udon Thani branch factories, totaling 5.72 megawatts, by the end of 2024, additional installations were made at the Loei, Sa Kaeo, Buriram, and Bueng Kan branches, totaling 13.46 megawatts. This installation will be capable of producing approximately 8,533,219.75 kilowatt-hours of electricity per year for production purposes and is expected to result in a reduction of carbon dioxide emissions by 4,256.76 tons of carbon dioxide equivalent per year. In 2025, Solar Floating installations will be implemented at the Mukdahan branch (Phase 2), Kalasin branch, Ubon Ratchathani branch, and Sakon Nakhon branch, with a total capacity of 12.06 megawatts.
