Ajinomoto’s greater challenge: Net-zero waste by 2030
The #AjinomotoSustainAbilildadChallenge is part of APC’s Ilabas ang SustainAbilidad environment education campaign that was launched last year to encourage consumers to incorporate sustainable practices in their daily lives. On the company’s end, it pledges to strengthen its environmental advocacy and reduce its plastic waste to zero by 2030.
Some of Ajinomoto initiatives include reducing the size and thickness of its packaging resulting to plastic waste reduction by 70-100 tons per year. The company also has wastewater treatment facilities and technologies to convert some of its factory materials to reusable fuel.
“At Ajinomoto, we uphold ‘The Ajinomoto Group Creating Shared Value (ASV)’ model that represents our unchanging commitment to help resolve society’s issues such as health and well-being, food resources, and global sustainability. Through this cycle, we ensure that we provide healthy, delicious, and high-quality products to Filipino families while reducing the impact of our business to the environment,” says Co. “Through the #AjinomotoSustainabilidadChallenge, we hope to inspire more Filipinos to lead a healthier and more sustainable lifestyle.”
