"Dow Thailand Group is very pleased that our new formulated PCR resin has been selected by a leading organization that is committed to innovation and sustainability like TPK," said Chatchai Luanpolcharoenchai, Dow Thailand President.

Post-consumer recycled resins are part of Dow’s portfolio of circularity solutions. Dow has set ambitious sustainability targets to enable 1 million tons of plastic to be collected, reused, or recycled through its direct actions and partnerships by 2030, and for 100 percent of what Dow sells into packaging applications to be reusable or recyclable by 2035. It is also in line with TPK’s business approach, which focuses on introducing innovations to meet the needs of modern brands that are environmentally conscious. The eco-friendly packaging film resulting from the partnership is ready for brands to purchase from today onwards.
