Waste Bank for the Environment Project

The goal of the project is to reduce waste and help mitigate global warming caused by greenhouse gases.

Sahacogen Green Co., Ltd. and Sahagreen Forest Company Limited launched the Waste Bank for the Environment project to raise employee awareness about environmental protection through waste segregation in both offices and factories. The initiative also encourages employees to donate or exchange household waste for goods before selling it to recycling buyers. The goal of the project is to reduce waste and help mitigate global warming caused by greenhouse gases. In 2024, the project segregated five types of waste: paper, plastic, metal, glass, and aluminum, totaling 764 kilograms, resulting in a reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by 549.92 kgCo2 equivalent.
