As part of the 'Regen (regeneration) Return' campaign, Hyosung TNC announced that on the afternoon of the 6th, it held the 'Beep Beep Bang Bang Plma Eco Truck' event with employees at its headquarters in Mapo-gu, Seoul.
Regen Return is a campaign where PET bottle collection boxes are installed at domestic business sites, and when employees bring collected PET bottles, they are given products made from Hyosung TNC's recycled fiber, Regen.
On this day, Hyosung TNC collaborated with the eco-friendly startup brand Pleatsmama to showcase the Eco Truck. Pleatsmama is a company that produces fashion products using Regen yarn, and the two companies have been working together on domestic recycling projects since 2020. They also cooperated in collecting discarded PET bottles and producing the Eco Truck for the offline event.
About 100 employees who participated in the campaign through prior registration engaged in various activities such as recycling-related games and making eco-friendly goods at the Eco Truck that appeared in the headquarters parking lot.
Hyosung TNC expects that through this event, employees will gain a deeper understanding of the recycled fiber Regen and develop a sense of ownership regarding the company's key focus on Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) management.
Kim Chi-hyung, CEO of Hyosung TNC, said, "The resource circulation sector is the ESG activity where Hyosung TNC is most leading, centered on the sustainable material Regen," adding, "We will practice sustainable management across all business areas based on the supply of recycled fiber materials."
