Bangkok Airways upcycles used uniforms
Bangkok Airways is upcycling staff uniforms into aprons for airport lounge staff, cloth bags and water cup bags as part of sustainability commitment
Bangkok Airways Public Company Limited (Bangkok Airways PCL) is strengthening its sustainability commitment by promoting the “Fly Net Zero 2050” campaign through various projects, the latest of which is upcycling used staff uniforms.
The products created include aprons for airport lounge staff, cloth bags and water cup bags.
The project is estimated to help reduce carbon dioxide by around 307 kilograms.
“We invited our staff to donate their used uniforms so that we can have those old uniforms transformed into new products through upcycling processes. This project not only promotes the idea of circular economy as we take something already made and then turn it into a new item to use in our business, which is a limited edition apron for our airport lounge agents, but also emphasizes our ‘Love Earth – Save Earth’ campaign where we focus on climate change management and waste management,” said Ariya Prasarttong-Osoth, Executive Committee member and Chairperson of Corporate Social Responsibility, Bangkok Airways PCL.
