Several occurrences over the years, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, increased concerns about global warming, and plastic waste issues, have prompted many countries to establish policies to minimize greenhouse gas emissions and implement more precise plastic waste management measures. SCGC has accelerated its business strategies to respond swiftly and sustainably to market changes. This allows it to mitigate short-term impacts on business operations while simultaneously developing long-term HVA products and solutions compatible with the new normal lifestyle and sustainable business operations. All are carried out with the following five key strategies.
SCGC has developed the potential for continuing growth in ASEAN with the aim of expanding investments in Thailand and ASEAN, particularly in Vietnam and Indonesia, where polymer demand remains continuously high. Long Son Petrochemicals Compa-ny Limited (LSP), a subsidiary of SCGC with a 99% stake valued at USD 5 billion, is expected to commence commercial operations in the first quarter of 2023.
For Indonesia, SCGCs is the second-largest shareholder of PT Chandra Asri Petro-chemical Tbk (CAP), with a 30.57% stake. It is Indonesia's sole petrochemical complex. CAP's current total assets are esti-mated to be USD 4.59 billion.
SCGC has expanded and improved integration in the vinyl business to accelerate its leadership in vinyl production in ASEAN and meet the demands of a constantly expanding market. It also enhances the reliability of feedstock sourcing and cost competitiveness.
SCGC aspires to be a leader in sustainable business development to manufacture more sustainable polymers and seek to cut greenhouse gas emissions by 20% by 2030. (compared to the base year of 2021). In the same year, SCGC will raise its annual sales of green polymers under the brand SCGC GREEN POLYMER™ to 1 million tons to meet the four fundamental components of the circular economy
