Over the years, we have won numerous awards for our recycling efforts including the Singapore Packaging Agreement Awards by the National Environmental Agency from 2015 to 2018 for our efforts to reduce the amount of packaging materials used.
We are continually improving our manufacturing practices to increase our powder production while using less energy and ensuring quality products.
