Thailand’s Charoen Pokphand Foods (CP Foods) has partnered with Bangchak Corporation to convert fast-food cooking oil into environmentally friendly aviation fuel.
As part of its dedication to turning waste into creative solutions, CP Foods collaborates with other key industry leaders to create a network of suppliers for spent cooking oil, helping Thailand reach net-zero emissions.
The manufacture of sustainable aviation fuel is aimed at reducing the aviation industry’s environmental impact and producing clean energy.
Kobboon Srichai, head of corporate affairs and investor relations of CP Foods, said the partnership strengthens the company’s commitment to maximising resource efficiency while setting new sustainability benchmarks for Thailand’s food industry.
“This initiative reflects our dedication to ‘sustainovation’ – integrating sustainability with innovation to ensure food security and create products that benefit both people and the planet.”
Central Group, Thai Beverage, Thai President Foods and the Thai Food Processors’ Association also joined forces in the initiative.
