Support Environment and Earth by Minimizing Plastics
Waste management at FEAV is guided by the principle, “minimizing waste with classification; turning valueless to valuable.” The plant offers training on waste classification for both new and existing employees. In addition, FEAV installed FEAV Waste Classification Bulletin at all interior and exterior waste collection locations to remind employees to recycle.
FEAV held a plastics minimization campaign to replace plastics with green materials. The plant rolled out its campaign slogan, “FE says no to plastic bags and straws, contributing to environmental protection.” Actions taken are as follows:
- The caterers switched to cotton dessert bags. As a result, the plant reduced the consumption of plastic bags by approximately 312 kg in 2020.
- Instead of providing 1 trash bin for each office employee, a team of 6 to 8 employees now share 2 trash bins, 1 for paper waste and 1 for domestic waste. By removing 233 trash bins, monthly reduction of plastic bags reached 930 to 1,860 rolls.
