SCGC Presents Vision at APIC 2025, Driving Asia’s Petrochemical Industry Toward Future
31 May, 2025
20 May 2025 – SCG Chemicals, or SCGC, a leading integrated polymer and solutions provider for sustainability, represented by Sakchai Patiparnpreechavud, Chief Executive Officer and President of SCG Chemicals Public Company Limited, shared the vision on “Building a Sustainable Future: The Role of the Chemical Industry in a Transformed World” at the Asia Petrochemical Industry Conference 2025 (APIC 2025). The event was held under the theme "Ensuring a Transformed World Prosperity," reflecting the vital role of the petrochemical industry in driving economic growth, enhancing quality of life, and promoting a sustainable future. Organized by the Petrochemical Industry Club, Federation of Thai Industries, APIC 2025 took place from 15-16 May 2025 at Centara Grand at CentralWorld Bangkok, welcoming over 1,500 petrochemical industry delegates from across Asia and around the globe. At the event, SCGC showcased innovations, solutions and technologies designed to create a better world under the concept of “ProsperWorld,” promoting sustainability and multidimensional development through its Low Waste and Low Carbon approaches. Sakchai Patiparnpreechavud, Chief Executive Officer and President of SCG Chemicals or SCGC, shared his vision at APIC 2025, saying, “Currently, the petrochemical and plastics industry faces multiple challenges. A key priority for the industry is to enhance its competitiveness by developing high-value-added materials and technologies, alongside greater responsibility towards the planet. Plastics play a critical role in driving global sustainability, given their versatility in meeting megatrends for both daily life and industrial applications. Additionally, plastics have a relatively lower life-cycle carbon footprint compared to other materials. Therefore, developing innovations to enhance the efficiency of plastic resins, such as making them lighter and more durable, will further help reduce carbon and resource consumption. In addition, a key factor that will help drive economic growth, enhance quality of life, and promote future sustainability is the establishment of a circular economy to manage and recycle used plastics. This requires collaboration from all sectors throughout the value chain — from industrial manufacturers, policymakers, consumers, to researchers — to transition the world towards sustainability alongside the practices of low waste and low carbon.
