[Asia Economy Reporter Seungjin Lee] Maeil Dairies' organic and eco-friendly food brand Sangha Farm announced on the 6th that it has signed an agreement with the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) to reduce plastic usage.


On the 5th, Sangha Farm signed a cooperation agreement at WWF-Korea (World Wide Fund for Nature Korea Headquarters) located in Jongno-gu, Seoul, to support WWF's activities and collaborate for a sustainable Earth. WWF is a non-governmental organization established for a future where humanity and nature can coexist, and it is the world's largest international nature conservation organization.


Through the agreement, Maeil Dairies and Sangha Farm will work with WWF on projects for resource circulation, such as reducing plastic and recycling milk cartons. In particular, Sangha Farm plans to reduce plastic usage by cutting down on plastic straws and lightening PET bottles, and actively engage in milk carton recycling projects to strengthen resource circulation activities.


According to estimates, Sangha Farm is expected to reduce plastic usage by about 260 tons and collect 46 tons of paper cartons this year, thereby reducing carbon dioxide emissions by approximately 10.6 tons.



A Sangha Farm official said, “Sangha Farm is an organic food brand pursuing a sustainable environment. In line with this philosophy, we have continuously carried out activities such as reducing plastic and recycling milk cartons,” adding, “Through this agreement, we will not only support WWF's activities but also work closely to create a better environment.”
