NEO Corporate Public Company Limited (NEO)<\/strong>, a leading Thai FMCG innovator, has joined forces with PTT Global Chemical Public Company Limited (GC)<\/strong> through its post-consumer plastics management platform, \u201cGC YOUTURN\u201d<\/strong> Announcing a collaboration with the Bueng Kho Hai Subdistrict Administrative Organization (SAO)<\/strong> and the Bueng Kho Hai Elderly Club<\/strong> in Lam Luk Ka District, Pathum Thani Province<\/strong>, the partners have officially launched the \u201cBueng Kho Hai Community Recycle Waste Bank.\u201d<\/strong> The initiative establishes a closed-loop circular supply chain model, turning household recyclables into economic value to generate local income, savings, and community welfare benefits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Uniting Strengths to Power an End-to-End Circular Economy<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This cross-sector partnership creates an integrated recycling ecosystem. NEO supports the establishment of the waste bank with resources, knowledge, communications, and coordination with the community, integrating local efforts into the NEO Circular Waste Hub. Simultaneously, GC YOUTURN contributes its expertise and data management platform to oversee the entire lifecycle\u2014from community education and source separation to waste aggregation. It ensures clear polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and high-density polyethylene (HDPE) plastic bottles are systematically directed to ENVICCO<\/strong>, a recycled plastic resin manufacturing facility under GC Group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

At the heart of the initiative is deep community integration, establishing the Bueng Kho Hai Community Recycle Waste Bank as Central Community Recycling Management Hub delivering long-term local benefits. Household waste is sorted and collected before being channeled into recovery streams. Post-consumer plastics are sent to ENVICCO to be processed into high-grade Post-Consumer Recycled (PCR) resin, which is then reintroduced as raw material for new packaging across NEO\u2019s brand portfolio, including BeNice. Other recyclable materials, such as metals and glass bottles, are directed to local recyclers and buyers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This closed-loop system directly reduces virgin plastic consumption and greenhouse gas emissions across the entire value chain. It reinforces NEO\u2019s Low-Carbon Packaging initiatives, accelerates its Net Zero Pathway, and prepares the organization for future Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) regulations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe Waste Bank Engine\u201d: Generating Value Beyond Revenue<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Bueng Kho Hai Community Recycle Waste Bank is structured around local ownership and long-term operational self-sufficiency. With venue support and administrative coordination provided by the Bueng Kho Hai SAO, the Bueng Kho Hai Elderly Club and the Waste Bank Committee lead day-to-day operations\u2014purchasing, weighing, sorting, and logging transactions via the GC YOUTURN platform. Revenue generated from recyclable sales is converted into savings accounts and welfare funds for members, while empowering local senior citizens with active, valued roles in community development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Kasma Torrarit, Packaging and ESG Director at NEO Corporate Public Company Limited<\/strong>, stated: \u201cNEO is dedicated to creating shared value across economic, social, and environmental pillars. Establishing the ‘Bueng Kho Hai Community Recycle Waste Bank’ is more than a CSR project; it lays the core infrastructure required to make the Circular Economy a reality through public-private-community collaboration. This initiative reduces municipal waste, transforms discards into household financial security, and fosters active, concrete community engagement.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Community Learning Hub for Sustainable, Shared Growth<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kitchai Chalermsuksant, Senior Vice President, Marketing and Sales \u2013 Industry Platforms at PTT Global Chemical Public Company Limited (GC)<\/strong>, added: \u201cGC YOUTURN believes sustainable plastic waste management cannot be achieved by any single entity. Our partnership with NEO bridges corporate supply chains with local communities. By applying GC YOUTURN\u2019 s end-to-end management system, we ensure sorted plastics re-enter the production loop efficiently. The Bueng Kho Hai Waste Bank serves as an initial proof point that we intend to scale across other communities.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yongyuth Wangpanya, Chief Executive of the Bueng Kho Hai Subdistrict Administrative Organization<\/strong>, remarked: \u201cHaving an organized system backed by experienced corporate partners makes it much easier for households to adopt waste segregation at source. We aim for this waste bank to become a permanent community pillar, expanding its reach across households, local schools, temples, and neighboring networks.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sudrak Chaengroosuk, Head of the Bueng Kho Hai Community Recycle Waste Bank and Representative of the Bueng Kho Hai Elderly Club<\/strong>, shared: \u201cTo our community, items once seen as trash now generate real income and savings. Most importantly, local residents run the operations themselves, giving senior citizens an active and valuable role. We want this waste bank to be a continuous community effort with clear, lasting local benefits.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From Local Success to Scalable Impact<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cLooking ahead, NEO and our network partners aim to develop the Bueng Kho Hai Community Recycle Waste Bank into an educational learning center and a model community blueprint. We plan to expand this network to local schools, temples, and surrounding areas to scale up recycled material volumes. Paired with a transparent, verifiable, and self-reliant operating framework, this project establishes a resilient circular foundation and drives sustainable, shared growth for businesses, communities, and the environment alike,\u201d concluded Kasma.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
