Environment

Environmental issues may include climate policies, energy use, waste, pollution,
natural resource conservation, and animal treatment. Environmental strategies

assess all risks Vinh Hao may encounter and how to manage and resolve those
risks. The environmental sustainability pillar puts the health of our planet at its
core. It advocates the conservation of natural resources, reduction of pollution
and promotion of biodiversity for the benefit of future generations. Our health
and happiness are closely linked to the health of the environment.
1. Strategy for sustainable packaging development
At Vinh Hao, we are making concerted efforts in our journey towards a waste-
free future, with a commitment to be plastic neutral by 2026.
- Reduce virgin plastic
PET plastic (Polyethylene terephthalate) is commonly used in the beverage
industry thanks to its durability and ability to preserve drinks well for a long
time. This is also a highly recyclable material. However, there have been
environmental concerns when plastic waste is found increasingly in the ocean,
leading to the risk of extinction of some marine species and reducing
biodiversity. Therefore, we set a goal to reduce the amount of virgin plastic in
the Company's products by 1/3 by 2026 and do so through a series of actions.
- Use recycled plastic
rPET (recycled PET) is a high-quality recycled plastic with the same ingredients
as PET plastic, created from used PET bottles, with a strict production process
and modern technology to ensure it meets standards. hygiene and safety of the
food & beverage industry. We will launch Vinh Hao natural mineral water
products - 350ml and 500ml capacity using 50% recycled plastic bottles. For
each volume of rPET used, there is a significant reduction in the equivalent
amount of PET plastic. At the same time, an equivalent amount of plastic bottles
was also collected and recycled, creating a new life cycle, reducing emissions
into the environment.
- Pioneer in using materials to replace plastic
To develop sustainable packaging materials and collaborate with industry
partners to expand research and innovation we have our own team focused on
research and development for packaging. At Vinh Hao, we are currently
experimenting with packaging innovations, including environmentally friendly
materials.
2. Strategy for saying NO to waste
We are implementing environmental protection solutions with an approach that
supports and promotes a circular economy model for packaging, regenerating
resources by helping used packaging become raw materials. production,
minimizing emissions into the environment. This requires a closed cycle, from
product design to collection & recycling infrastructure as well as consumer
acceptance. Create a mechanism to encourage the production of high-quality
recycled plastic from bottles collected in Vietnam. In Vietnam, it is estimated
that each year more than 1.8 million tons of plastic waste is released into the
environment, but only 27% of it is recycled and utilized by establishments and
businesses. High-quality recycled plastic (rPET) is considered a solution to help
reduce plastic emissions, turning used plastic bottles into high-value resources
as a sustainable solution for the environment. Therefore, Vinh Hao makes many
efforts to contribute to promoting the domestic rPET production industry. From
there, domestic businesses are encouraged to invest in collecting and producing
this type of plastic. We aim to have 25% of the Company's products use bottles
made from rPET by 2026. We provide financial support to help domestic
packaging manufacturers implement initiatives to improve the quality and
quantity of selected bottles through cooperation with plastic collection stations
in many provinces. In rPET production, the quality of collected plastic bottles
plays an important role. Because, only bottles that meet quality requirements
can become input materials. Successfully implemented the circulatory model for
Vinh Hao 20L water bottle. Bottle shells are collected directly from consumers
and transferred to the factory. At the factory, jars will undergo a strict inspection
process and 24 cleaning steps to ensure quality and safety. The bottle can be
reused up to 15 times if the bottle's quality is guaranteed after each use.
Containers that do not meet quality standards for reuse will be returned to the
recycling unit.
3. Strategy for protecting biological rights and biodiversity:
Vinh Hao can set a target of reducing water use by 60% and applying water
saving technology in the mineral water exploitation and production process.
This helps protect precious water resources and ensure sustainable development
of the environment. Ensure that water resource exploitation and use activities do
not negatively affect the natural environment, such as water systems. ecology,
streams, rivers and lakes. Vinh Hao can implement protective measures such as
wastewater treatment and minimizing impact on the environment. Participate in
environmental conservation projects, such as collaborating with non-
governmental or non-profit organizations in protecting important biosphere and
biodiversity areas. Vinh Hao can fund projects to restore and preserve water and
land areas important for the survival of rare flora and fauna. Workshops or
community projects develop educational programs and create awareness about
the importance of protecting biological rights and biodiversity. Organize
exchange activities and media campaigns to increase awareness of the
importance of protecting the environment and biodiversity for the community
and its customers.
Evaluating, measuring, and moderating strategies :
The proposed strategies for environmentally sustainable development that Vinh Hao
implements all increase sustainable efficiency, cost less, and meet management requirements
related to ESG, such as meeting waste reduction. into the environment, recycling and
spreading awareness about environmental biodiversity education. Measuring the effectiveness
of strategies helps to better understand and grow stronger in ESG. Additionally, its
assessment helps businesses avoid the penalties and reputational damage that come with poor
ESG impacts. Vinh Hao engages with its community and interacts with customers, suppliers
and potential stakeholders — relationships that can help drive sustainable business growth.
