Jeju Samdasoo, Recruiting Participants for 'Good Circulation Campaign' to Join Resource Collection

[Asia Economy Reporter Song Seung-yoon] Jeju Samdasoo announced on the 16th that it is promoting the ‘Label to RGO Project,’ which converts vinyl materials including labels into high-quality fuel, and is recruiting participants for the ‘Good Circulation Campaign’ to join in resource collection.

RGO is a technology that extracts oil from waste vinyl and plastic using a low-temperature wavelength decomposition method that does not emit harmful gases. Jeju Development Corporation, which produces and sells Jeju Samdasoo, is promoting this project together with Dosiyujeon, an environmental technology and energy specialist company possessing RGO technology, to study the possibility of converting labels and vinyl waste made of PP/PE/PS materials into high-quality fuels such as diesel, kerosene, and naphtha.

Vinyl collection for oil extraction will be carried out through consumer participation. Jeju Samdasoo is recruiting 100 SNS collectors on its Instagram and Facebook until the 21st. Selected participants must collect 1kg of labels and vinyl materials generated in daily life and send them to the project research center by the 12th of next month. Participants who complete the mission will receive a ‘Samdasoo Good Circulation Picnic Kit,’ upcycled from plastic, as a gift.

Labels collected in the ‘Ilbun (Separate First) Campaign,’ launched last month in collaboration with Korea Expressway Corporation, will also be utilized in this ‘Label to RGO’ project.

A Jeju Samdasoo official said, “We are promoting an eco-friendly campaign created together with consumers to become a brand that shares sustainable values beyond quality assurance,” and added, “We ask for the interest and participation of many people in this resource circulation project that collects various vinyl materials cleanly and converts them into eco-friendly oil.”
