ENVICCO’s T-VER certification advances its Low-CO2 goals
Apr Thu 2025
Environmental issues—especially global warming—have become a critical global challenge that demands collective action from governments, private sectors, and individuals. In response, Thailand established the T-VER program to encourage organizations and companies to voluntarily reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
ENVICCO, a leading bioplastics manufacturer in Thailand specializing in high-quality recycled plastic pellets, is the first company in the country to earn T-VER carbon credits from a waste management activity. To recover and recycle plastic from waste, the project employed voluntary greenhouse gas reduction techniques.
The T-VER Program: Encouraging Voluntary Carbon Reduction
The T-VER program—short for Thailand Voluntary Emission Reduction Program—is a national framework developed by the Thailand Greenhouse Gas Management Organization (TGO). The initiative promotes voluntary participation from all sectors in reducing the nation’s greenhouse gas emissions. Participants in the T-VER program carry out activities that reduce emissions and, in return, receive T-VER carbon credits.
Types of T-VER Projects
To qualify for the T-VER program, participants must undertake projects in one of the following categories:
Renewable Energy
Transitioning to renewable or clean energy to curb carbon dioxide emissions.
Transport
Using energy-efficient transportation systems, including electric vehicles, to cut emissions from the transport sector.
Energy Efficiency
Implementing energy-saving measures in buildings, factories, and homes to reduce energy consumption and emissions.
Factory
Manufacturing and operations that reduce greenhouse gas emissions, such as using natural refrigerants or alternatives to clinker.
Waste
Improving waste management practices to minimize methane emissions and reduce landfill areas.
Land Use
Increasing green spaces and using smart forest management to improve carbon sequestration.
CCUS
Carbon Capture Utilization and Storage (CCUS) involves capturing carbon dioxide emissions from various sources and using them as raw materials in production, or storing them in geological formations to prevent atmospheric release.
Requirements for Participating in the T-VER Program
The following conditions apply to companies wishing to participate in the T-VER program:
- Voluntary participation without enforcement, while complying with T-VER standards
- Transparent and verifiable processes with supporting documentation
- Demonstrable additionality, proving the activity goes beyond standard business operations
ENVICCO's carbon reduction efforts earn T-VER certification
ENVICCO, a producer of high-quality recycled plastic pellets, has joined the T-VER program by adopting sustainable production practices. The company manufactures PCR PET (rPET) and PCR HDPE (rHDPE) pellets—made entirely from post-consumer plastic bottles and packaging. In 2023, ENVICCO became the first company certified under the T-VER carbon credit standard by the TGO for its project to recover and recycle plastic waste into pellets, achieving a reduction of 18,254 tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent.
Plastic Waste Recovery and Recycling Project by ENVICCO
ENVICCO has developed a comprehensive strategy to lower greenhouse gas emissions through plastic waste recovery, including: Developing a system to sort and recycle used plastic waste in Thailand, reducing plastic pollution Implementing an energy-efficient production process to minimize emissions in plastic manufacturing Establishing quality standards for recycled pellets that can be reused in new packaging, decreasing reliance on virgin plastics and conserving natural resources Looking ahead, ENVICCO aims to become a low-carbon business and support a circular economy. The company targets the use of over 430,000 tonnes of post-consumer plastics and plans to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 574,700 tonnes of CO₂ equivalent by 2029.
ENVICCO: Sustainable Recycled Plastic Pellet Production
ENVICCO is a leading Manufacturer of Recycle Plastic Resin in Thailand, specializing in recycled plastic pellets such as PCR PET (rPET) for food-grade packaging and PCR HDPE (rHDPE) from post-consumer plastic bottles and containers. The company’s products lessen environmental plastic waste, conserve natural resources, and decrease emissions from new plastic production.
