o Waste to landfill
reduction programs
have been rolled out
at many plants such
as Pak Food Asia and
Thai Union Seafood,
where they use
wastewater sludge
for fertilizer and
have planted trees.
At Songkla Canning,
they introduced a
recycling process for
contaminated plastic
that previously went
to landfill. Other
programs were also
introduced in Poland
and Ghana. As a
result, Thai Union
has reduced its
waste to landfill by
more than 17,000
tons since 2016.
