SCGC won The ESG Champions of Asia 2026 in the Green Leadership category at the Asia Responsible Enterprise Award (AREA) 2026, held in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The recognition was granted for SCGC‘s achievement in Operational Excellence in Sustainable Waste Management, which involves developing a comprehensive industrial waste management system. This initiative enhances environmental operations across the entire value chain, reflecting SCGC‘s leadership in Green Manufacturing that integrates innovation, technology, and data-driven processes to optimise resource efficiency, reduce environmental impact, and drive the industry toward a Circular Economy for a sustainable future in Asia.
The award was received on behalf of SCGC by Mrs. Supavinee Kitsanawattana, Head of the Environmental Excellence Center.

The SCGC Smart Waste Management Platform was designed to connect data throughout the entire process — from waste generation, transportation, recycling or disposal, to monitoring and analysis. By applying AI, IoT, and Data Analytics, the platform improves waste management efficiency and achieves the goal of Zero Waste to Landfill, ensuring no waste is continuously sent for landfill disposal. It also reduces time and paperwork, enables full traceability, and ensures environmental operations are efficient, transparent, and capable of continuous improvement through data-driven insights.

The Green Leadership Award is presented to organisations that demonstrate outstanding environmental leadership, with tangible results in reducing environmental impact. This includes efficient resource utilisation, waste reduction and recycling, eco-friendly design, and integrating environmental practices into sustainable development strategies — ultimately achieving excellence across the Asia region.
SCGC remains committed to driving the organisation with Innovation for Sustainability, leveraging digital technology, AI, and data-driven approaches to enhance production efficiency and resource management. At the same time, SCGC creates economic, social, and environmental value to ensure long-term sustainable growth.
