Elimination Of Waste Generated From Business Processes
The Company has a policy for sustainable waste management by reducing the amount of waste from the production process that must be discarded together with reducing the amount of packaging used, both paper, over used plastic or single-use to be able to reduce the amount of waste that has to go to landfill by searching for ways to put waste to good use including recycling waste to appropriately add value to the waste that is generated to achieve the most valuable and efficient use of resources.
Various projects are being carried out to reduce the amount of waste from the production process as follows:
1. Project to reduce the amount of coconut water waste remaining in pipelines
Products that contain coconut water, there is a coconut water transportation system using a pump sent through pipes. However, due to the relatively long pipeline distance. Therefore, some coconut water is wasted because it is stuck inside the pipeline. The production department therefore has an idea to reduce waste by creating a system to expel the pipeline with sponge rubber balls and using air to push the rubber balls along the pipeline. As a result, there is no coconut water waste stuck in the pipeline to be able to reduce the amount of coconut water waste remaining in the pipeline by 170 Kg/day (4,420 Kg/month).
2. Project to reduce the use of plastic in the packaging process of bottled products
In the process of packaging bottled products, there are steps in the process of using PE film to wrap product packs. Therefore, the idea was to reduce the amount of plastic used by 10 percent by experimenting with reducing the width of the PE plastic film from the original width of 250 millimeters to a width of 240 millimeters (reduced 10 millimeters) or the difference in weight of PE film reduced by 0.001Kg / pack. The reduced size of PE plastic film will still be able to wrap the product normally.
3. Project to change packaging size of chemicals
In order to reduce the amount of industrial waste disposal, chemical tanks for cleaning production lines which is considered hazardous waste. Therefore, there is an idea to change the packing size of chemicals from using 25 kilogram drums to 200 liter drums. This can reduce the use of 25 kilogram drums at 57 drums, to use only 7 200-liters drums.
