Community & Environment Responsibilities
 

Amata’s vision of the future is not just building more sites for factories.We plan for our Industrial estates to become complete and balanced communities, where business, people and nature can all thrive together.  We call this concept  “The Perfect City”,  a set of goals and ideals that is guiding us toward better results.  For industry, it means world-class services and facilities in prime locations. For the people who working our estates,it means restaurants, shopping, recreation, housing and schools even a world-class golf course and club.

 

In concrete terms, it means we keep investing in our estates to add value to our clients’ investments.  With new  “Perfect City” projects being added every month, we are proud to already host  Satit Kaset multilingual school, Suan Kularb School, Thai-German Institute for technical training, YWCA fitness and community center, Amata Mansion condominiums, shopping plazas, the Amata Spring Country Club and  more.

  Amata creates a value chain for its customers and communities by continuously adding new support businesses and services.  Manufacturers thereby gain efficiency and competitiveness every year for as long as they operate at Amata. People gain quality of life factors not only for working, but for living, education and recreation.
  Amata hosts every year Thailand’s largest soccer league.  For several months each year more than 100 company teams compete in football (soccer) to win the Amata Cup.  Other sports popular at the estates are volleyball, badminton and sepak takraw.
  Education is equally important.  Throughout the year, Amata receives numerous student delegation and learning groups for the purpose of knowledge transfer and education.  On the national childrens’ day, the company visits surrounding schools donating books, sportand education equipments.

Amata realizes on the importance of natural resources including the environmental impact–both Amata estates were accredited the ISO 14001 certification by TUV Rheinland.

Since establishment of the industrial site, the company has implemented the Zero-Discharge Waste Management principles.  The concept of Zero-Discharge regulates the management of liquid and solid waste. Waste Water is treated and completely reused in the estate either for watering of green areas or cleaning purposes.

Every year,  an environmental policy is handed to all staff, suppliers and contractors.  It clarifies the focus of the company in regards to good environmental practice in following points.

   • Strict implementation of environmental laws & regulations.
   • Emphasize on prevention of problem rather than solving problems.
   • Recycling system according the company policy of Zero-Discharge.
   • Economical and efficient use of natural resources and power.
   • Maintenance of waste treatment plants and systems to achieve
maximum efficiency.
   • “Green and Clean” mind and attitude among staff members.
   • More efficient “Way-Finding” for traffic to ensure safety.
