[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Daeseop] Sampyo Group announced on the 27th that 'Costure,' a special purpose corporation jointly established with Korea Southern Power, has officially started the coal ash supply business.

On the same day, coal ash generated at Korea Southern Power's Hadong and Samcheok Power Headquarters was supplied for the first time to domestic cement companies and fly ash refining plants through Costure. Costure plans to increase the annual coal ash supply volume up to 300,000 tons by diversifying transportation methods.

Costure is also establishing a maritime transportation system for transporting coal ash by ship. From the second half of this year, coal ash transportation from Korea Southern Power's Hadong Power Headquarters will be conducted concurrently by land and sea transportation.

Costure was established in March through joint investment by SP Nature, an environmental business division affiliate of Sampyo Group, and Korea Southern Power.

A Sampyo Group official stated, "The coal ash supply by Costure is significant as it represents the first fruit of our efforts to expand the recycling of domestically produced coal ash and to implement circular resource policies. We will explore more diversified ways to utilize domestic coal ash in line with the policy aim of reducing landfill of recyclable resources and maximizing the use of circular resources."
