TCP Group has launched the "Mansome rPET bottle," the first eco-friendly recycled PET (rPET) plastic packaging in Thailand's functional drink market, which can also be recycled again to create new packaging. Boost your good looks while caring more for the planet with "Mansome Collagen Less Sugar," designed for men who want to look and feel great inside and out.
As the eco-friendly trend continues to gain momentum and younger generations become more environmentally conscious, TCP Group is committed to developing products that meet the needs of eco-minded consumers, encouraging them to participate in protecting our planet. Leading the way with the Mansome brand, a functional drink for men, the launch of Mansome Collagen Less Sugar in an eco-friendly rPET bottle marks a significant milestone as the first product from TCP Group - and the first brand in Thailand's functional drink market - to use rPET packaging.
Mrs. Mallika Lungnimitmas, Marketing Department Director, Thailand Country Department at TCP Group, said, "For over 12 years, Mansome has been a leader in the functional drink market for men. We firmly believe in supporting every man to look good in his own way. Beyond that, we also promote doing good for both individuals and the planet. This year, we have taken our approach a step further through our efforts to reduce the amount of virgin plastic PET in our packaging and opting for recycled plastic, which transforms used plastic into new products, thus reducing plastic waste and showing greater care for the world from start to finish. Mansome rPET bottles advance our commitment to looking good while helping to make the world a better place."
Mansome Collagen Less Sugar is now packaged in a new rPET (Recycled Polyethylene Terephthalate) bottle made from 30% post-consumer recycled PET (PCR PET) resin, which is recycled plastic from PET bottles, one of the plastics used for single-use food and beverage packaging. Through recycling technology, it is transformed into Food Grade recycled plastic, which is safe for food and beverage packaging, and meets the quality standards set by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Additionally, the production of this recycled plastic resin can reduce greenhouse gas emissions by up to 57.7% compared to producing virgin plastic PET.
Mansome encourages consumers to separate packaging before disposal to facilitate effective recycling. A "Please Recycle" message is printed on the bottle to stop waste from going to landfills through a comprehensive waste management system, which is in line with TCP Group's commitment to promoting sustainable packaging by selecting environmentally friendly materials and designs that are recyclable. This also aligns with the company's sustainability goals to achieve 100% recyclable packaging by 2024 and driving the business to achieve net zero greenhouse gas emissions globally by 2050.
The delicious and refreshing Mansome Collagen Less Sugar is now available in a recyclable 430ml rPET bottle for 20 baht at convenience stores and supermarkets nationwide, and online at the TCP Online Shop (https://shop.tcp.com/).
