Summit Term Faa Term Suk

Summit Term Faa Term Suk is one of the activities the company has continuously organized from waste separation. This activity is campaigning our employees to collect plastic bottle caps separated from plastic bottles. The objective is to support and encourage all employees to contribute to conserving the environment and using resources with value and efficiency. This activity was launched in October 2022, and we delivered the bottle cap to “Precious Plastic Bangkok” and “Rak Talay Sanae Baan Amphur” community, Chonburi Province. The bottle cap was processed into a new product that was made from plastic waste. This can contribute to creating knowledge and generating income for the community, including strengthening environmental management.

From October 2022-March 2023, our employees can collect the plastic bottle cap and deliver them to Precious Plastic Bangkok and the community in a total of 34 kilograms which can be considered as reducing the amount of waste in that amount. The activity will be organized to deliver the plastic lid to Precious Plastic Bangkok and the network community every three months.

“Waste Sorting for Merit” Initiative

The company recognizes the importance of active participation in sustainable development and the transition toward a circular society, in alignment with its environmental policy. This includes fostering awareness and encouraging behavioral change among employees to reduce plastic waste and promote resource reuse.

To support this commitment, the company has initiated the “Waste Sorting for Merit” program. This initiative invites employees at the head office to collectively contribute to environmental sustainability while earning “merit points” through responsible actions. Employees are encouraged to sort recyclable plastic waste, specifically plastic bottles and rigid plastic cups, which are then donated to Wat Chak Daeng.

The donated plastic waste is recycled into fabric used to produce monks’ robes, thereby supporting both environmental conservation and the preservation of Buddhism. This initiative not only helps reduce plastic waste but also contributes meaningfully to religious and social well-being.

Launched in October 2023 and continuing to the present, the program has successfully collected a total of 704.50 kilograms of plastic waste through the collective efforts of employees.

“Summit Capital Save the Earth” project

Summit Capital Leasing recognizes the importance of conserving natural resources and protecting the environment as part of its commitment to reducing carbon dioxide emissions. The company actively promotes environmental awareness among its executives, employees, business partners, and customers through the “Summit Capital Save the Earth” initiative.

As part of this program, participants engage in mangrove reforestation activities. Mangrove forests are vital coastal ecosystems that provide significant environmental, economic, and social benefits. This initiative aims to restore and conserve mangrove forests, which serve as important breeding grounds for marine life and act as natural sources of oxygen that help purify the air.

In addition, mangrove forests play a crucial role in reducing carbon dioxide levels—one of the primary contributors to global warming—thereby supporting climate change mitigation efforts.
