In the heart of Thailand’s bustling innovation hub, three industry juggernauts have converged to forge a path towards a greener future. Kao Industrial (Thailand) Co., Ltd. (Kao), alongside the packaging cognoscenti of SCG Chemicals Co., Ltd. (SCGC) and Dow Thailand Group (Dow), are wielding their collective expertise to reshape the world of consumer packaging, transforming it into a bastion of sustainability. This trinity of industrial titans has pledged allegiance to a common cause: to enthuse the marketplace with packaging solutions that uphold the sanctity of our precious environment while pleasing the discerning modern consumer.
The remarkable synergy took form amidst the sleek, modern edifices of Dow Thailand’s headquarters, where solemn vows were exchanged through a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU). Under this newfound alliance, Kao—a brand synonymous with household names such as Attack, Biore, Haiter, Laurier, and Magiclean—has pledged to infuse its extensive range of products with this avant-garde packaging. Picture this: A Thailand where the shelves are lined with impeccably designed packages, each bearing the promise of a healthier planet.
At the signing ceremony, dignitaries from the respective companies radiated optimism. Kao Thailand’s President, Yuji Shimizu, effused, “What a glorious stride forward for Kao, as we join hands with the chemical virtuosos, SCGC and Dow! United by our unwavering commitment to the 4R principles—Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, and Replace—we embark on this venture, directly resonating with our ESG ambitions manifest in the ‘Kirei Lifestyle Plan.’ Kao dreams of a world bathed in the light of Zero Carbon Emissions by 2040, where our every action breathes life into the fight against global warming. We march towards the visionary beacon of net-zero waste in our packaging endeavors, hand in hand with partners of impeccable prowess like Dow and SCGC.”
Pisan Uawithya, SCGC’s sagacious Executive Director, elaborated on their strategy, “SCGC is steadfast in its allegiance to the circular economy, to the infinite loop of sustainability. We are poised to endow our collaborative projects with the essence of our GREEN POLYMER™ innovation, sculpting bottle and bag designs that honor the principles of Reduce, Recyclable, Recycle, and Renewable. It is our crusade to pave the way for Kao’s offerings to embody the very quintessence of resource efficiency.”
Chatchai Luanpolcharoenchai, President of Dow Thailand, remarked, “Our devotion to catalyzing reduction in carbon footprints and plastic refuse is unwavering. We are jubilant to be Kao’s ally in crafting flexible packaging that not only embodies the zenith of sustainability but is equally intuitive for consumer use. Harnessing Dow’s craft, from our Pack Studio in Singapore to our innovative plastic polymers, we stand ready to elevate Kao’s packaging ambitions to unparalleled heights.”
The implications of this MoU stir the winds of change, heralding the introduction of cutting-edge materials and technological prowess to revolutionize packaging for Kao. From sturdier bottles to more pliable bags, the innovations ensure the seamless combination of functional integrity with the ease of recycling. It’s an elemental force in Kao’s quest for sustainability, mirroring SCGC and Dow’s vow to minimize environmental impact and flourishing their banner of innovation.
This collective endeavor is more than a handshake; it’s a powerful declaration. A triad of industry powerhouses, united in harmonious collaboration, not just creating a product, but cultivating an experience—one that marries the allure of convenience with the grace of sustainability. The packaging revolution starts here in the land of smiles, Thailand, where every consumer choice becomes a step toward a future where both brands and buyers are proud stewards of the earth.
