Water is another main resource used in the glove production process and may affect the quality of the gloves. In some parts of the production process, quite a lot of water is used. The Company is therefore aware of the risks associated with bringing water from various sources to be used, in terms of risks both quantity and quality-related risks, water-related regulatory changes and pricing structure and water-related stakeholder conflicts. In 2022, the Company began to analyze and assess the risk situation pertaining to sufficiency of water resources of all branch factories located in Hat Yai District, Sadao District, Songkhla Province, Kantang District, Trang Province. Kanchanadit, Surat Thani Province and Pathio District, Chumphon Province by using the Aqueduct Water Risk Atlas tool of the World Resources Institute (WRI) and setting the frequency of analysis every 2 years. Results for the year 2025 indicate the Trang branch factory is located in an area classified as having low-medium water stress levels. The Hat Yai, P.S. Sadao, Anvar and Chumphon branch factories are situated in areas characterized by medium-to-high water stress levels. Meanwhile, the Surat Thani branch factory is located in an area designated as having high water stress levels, which represents a zone of significant risk with respect to water resource scarcity. Nevertheless, assessment results derived from the WRI indicate that the Company's groundwater consumption across all branch facilities remains at a level that does not generate adverse impacts on either the quantity or the quality of the surrounding groundwater sources, the Company has set guidelines for increasing efficiency of water use in the production process, in support of Sustainable Development Goal 6 (SDG 6) and Thailand’s 20-year water resources management master plan to reduce the impact of water shortages in the future as follows:
Management Guidelines
In 2025, the Company did not achieve its established water consumption reduction targets. This performance variance is attributable to the inherent complexity of production water management, which is influenced by multiple interdependent operational parameters such as Regulatory and Customer Specification Requirements: Product specifications must conform to diverse regulatory frameworks and quality standards that vary significantly across customer requirements and jurisdictional mandates. These varying compliance requirements necessitate specific production parameters that influence water utilization patterns. Production Process Variables: Water consumption is directly affected by production control factors, including raw material characteristics and chemical formulation requirements throughout the manufacturing process. These variables create operational constraints that impact the Company’s ability to optimize water usage while maintaining product quality and compliance standards. Notwithstanding the current performance gap, the Company maintains its unwavering commitment to efficient water resource stewardship. In response to the identified challenges, the Company has implemented an intensified water management framework encompassing: Process Optimization Initiatives, Enhanced Monitoring Protocols, Technology and Innovation Deployment.
This reinforced management approach is designed to ensure the Company achieves its revised water management targets within the established timeframe, demonstrating substantive progress toward sustainable water stewardship objectives and responsible environmental resource management. The Company’s continued commitment to addressing these complex operational challenges reflects its dedication to environmental sustainability and long-term operational excellence.
Water Supply Pipe Downsizing Project

Sri Trang Eco-Coasters Project
In the year 2025, the Company collaborated academically with Thaksin University and business partners to study and develop research or innovations in waste management and the utilization of unused materials from the production process, aiming to maximize benefits according to the principles of the circular economy. This initiative supports the goal of achieving Zero Waste to Landfill. As part of this effort, the Company has repurposed defective rubber gloves and powder dust from the production process to produce coasters.



Sri Trang Eco-Coasters are made from used rubber gloves and unused materials from the Company’s production process. The focus is on reducing waste disposal and creating value from waste (Waste to Value) according to the principles of the circular economy (CE). Under the sustainability strategy of the Sri Trang Group, we aim to contribute to environmental conservation and create balance for our planet.

Implementing Circular Economy Frameworks to Transform Rubber Scraps from Gloves Production Process into Value-added Resources (Waste to Value) Project
In the year 2025, the Hat Yai branch factory was selected to participate in the Industrial Establishment Development and Enhancement Program for Circular Economy Implementation in Organizations, organized by the Department of Primary Industries and Mines in collaboration with the ISO Certification Institute. The program aimed to study the reuse of waste materials from production processes to maximize benefits according to circular economy principles and support the Zero Waste to Landfill target. Rubber scraps from gloves production process have been utilized as raw materials to produce shock-absorbent foam rubber sheets, which were donated to the Prathan Kheeri Wat community for installation as flooring in their boxing training facility.
