Seocho-gu, Seoul (Mayor Jeon Seong-su) announced on the 22nd that it signed a business agreement with the Korea Minting and Security Printing Corporation on the 21st to cooperate on anti-counterfeiting technology for volume-based waste disposal bags.

This business agreement includes mutual cooperation measures with the Korea Minting and Security Printing Corporation, which possesses the highest level of security technology in Korea, to prevent counterfeiting of volume-based waste disposal bags treated as securities. The detailed contents of the agreement include an agreement to utilize the Korea Minting and Security Printing Corporation's security technology and cooperation to strengthen anti-counterfeiting functions for volume-based waste disposal bags and food waste disposal fee payment certificates.

Through this agreement, the district plans to apply technology using the Korea Minting and Security Printing Corporation's anti-counterfeiting technology so that residents can safely purchase volume-based waste disposal bags and food waste disposal fee payment certificates.

In particular, while many local governments face difficulties in using anti-counterfeiting technology for volume-based waste disposal bags, this business agreement is expected to enhance the anti-counterfeiting technology to a higher level and increase the trust of the residents.

At the signing ceremony held at Seocho-gu Office on the day, Mayor Jeon Seong-su of Seocho-gu, President Seong Chang-hoon of the Korea Minting and Security Printing Corporation, and other officials attended, signing the agreement, taking commemorative photos, and exchanging gifts.

Meanwhile, since July this year, the district has been producing and selling new volume-based waste disposal bags with a pictogram-centered design instead of the previous text-centered design. This change was made to improve the convenience of waste disposal for residents, featuring intuitive pictograms that clearly indicate the disposal guidelines at a glance, such as recyclable items that should not be put into the volume-based waste disposal bags.

Mayor Jeon Seong-su said, “I hope this business agreement with the Korea Minting and Security Printing Corporation will be an opportunity for residents to purchase and use volume-based waste disposal bags with greater confidence.”
