Sansiri, in collaboration with GC YOU Turn and green partners, is transforming 50,000 plastic bottle caps into "eco-friendly playgrounds," with the first three projects in the Ratchaphruek-New Road area already completed.
Sansiri, in collaboration with GC YOUTurn and other green partners, is moving forward with the “Waste to WORTH” campaign, transforming over 50,000 used plastic bottle caps into “eco-friendly playgrounds” made from recycled PCR Rotomolding Compound. These playgrounds are already in operation in three pilot projects in the Ratchaphruek-New Road area, reinforcing the practical application of the Circular Economy concept to create tangible value from plastic waste.
The success of this pilot project stems from the combined efforts of a comprehensive Green Ecosystem network, from upstream to downstream, through the collaboration of four expert partners: Plus Property, which engaged residents and employees through systematic plastic waste drop-off points in pilot communities like T77 Community and The Society Phuket; WasteBuy Delivery, which managed the logistics, transportation, and transparent tracking of recycled waste; GC YOUTurn, a platform for managing used plastics, which transformed HDPE bottle caps into PCR Rotomolding Compound, ideal for seamless spin-molding to increase product strength; and Punpun Playground, in collaboration with the Sansiri design team , which molded the plastic into playground equipment, resulting in a strong, beautiful, and safe eco-friendly playground that meets standards.
Throughout the Waste to WORTH campaign, significant positive environmental impact was achieved by collecting over 50,000 used plastic bottle caps, weighing 206 kilograms. This resulted in a reduction of over 61 kilograms of plastic waste and a decrease in greenhouse gas emissions of 117 kilograms of carbon dioxide equivalent (kgCO2e). These collected caps were then returned to residents through the installation and use of these systems in three pilot projects: Siri Place Ratchaphruek-Tat Mai, Anasiri Ratchaphruek-Tat Mai, and Mable Ratchaphruek-Tat Mai.
Sansiri, GC, and their partners believe that the Waste to WORTH mission is setting a new standard and proving that a circular economy is achievable and can create tangible benefits for society. This involves changing residents' behavior by separating small amounts of waste, and then recycling it into spaces of imagination and creating new value for children. It also marks a significant milestone in driving the Thai real estate industry towards a truly sustainable future.
