As a leading global manufacturer and distributor of rubber gloves that consistently values every form of life, Sri Trang Gloves (Thailand) Public Company Limited is committed to preserving nature both on land and at sea, recognizing that marine ecosystems—covering 71% of the Earth—are the vital foundation of biodiversity influencing global temperatures, climate, and the oxygen we breathe; therefore, we strive to safeguard these ecosystems by strictly preventing all business-related pollution and actively restoring marine resources to ensure the protection of humanity’s essential assets and the enduring beauty of our oceans for generations to come.
“Sri Trang Go Green: Blue Carbon Restoration” Project
Blue Carbon refers to carbon dioxide stored in marine and coastal ecosystems, including mangrove forests, tidal flats, seagrass beds, and salt marshes. These ecosystems are up to four times more efficient at carbon sequestration than terrestrial forests due to their superior capacity to capture carbon dioxide and store it in sediment layers, effectively reducing atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations and mitigating climate change impacts.
The Company continues to champion this project for the second consecutive year in collaboration with the Faculty of Fisheries Science and Technology, Marine Science and Environment Program, Rajamangala University of Technology Srivijaya, Trang Campus. This year, the project has conducted studies and experimental cultivation of sea purslane or black purslane (pioneer plants for preventing beach erosion) in various environmental conditions to collect survival rate data before actual planting implementation at Mod Tanoi Beach, Trang Province.
