Promoting Environmental Sustainability

At MFCB, we prioritise environmental conservation across our operations and are committed to minimise our impacts where possible. We are committed to address the climate crisis and work towards a more sustainable future where people, planet and business are in balance. We focus on four key areas across our Divisions, including:

The Group is dedicated to shifting towards a low-carbon economy and implementing strategies to reduce GHG emissions, while deliberately considering the economic impacts of these actions. Our strategies revolve around the following key projects:

• Transition to renewable electricity at our operations
• Implementation of various energy efficiency initiatives in production processes
• Reduction of waste across our operations

At MFCB, we recognise the importance of efficient water use and conservation. As we navigate challenges like population growth and climate change, innovative water management approaches become essential for ensuring a resilient and water-secure future.

In our commitment to fostering a circular economy, we implement waste management practices throughout our operations. These practices comply with local environmental requirements, regulations, and standards in the countries where we operate. We have implement 6Rs – rethink, reduce, reuse, remanufacture, repurpose and recycle – across our operations and also incorporate recycled materials into our products.

In recognition of the growing importance of global biodiversity conservation, we commit to a long-term biodiversity conservation strategy with focus on our Don Sahong Hydropower Project (“DSHP”) that is located on an anabranch of the Mekong River. Our strategy includes goals to 2030 and 2050 and is aligned with the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (“GBF”) and Lao PDR’s National Biodiversity Strategy and Action Plan 2016 – 2025.
