  • Reduce the amount of water used in manufacturing process
  • Recycle the water from our manufacturing process through stringent and comprehensive wastewater treatment until the water is clean and safe enough for aquatic lives. The treated water is used in other non-production processes and thereby decreases the usage of water sourced from surrounding communities.
  • Replenish water by safely returning the equivalent amount of water used in finished beverages and production processes to communities and nature.

The 'RAKNAM' project was launched in 2007 by The Coca-Cola Foundation Thailand in partnership with various organizations such as the Utokapat Foundation under Royal Patronage of H.M. The King, the Hydro - Informatics Institute, the Population and Community Development Association, and the Forest and Sea for Life Foundation, as well as local community networks, local government agencies, executives and employees of ThaiNamthip Co., Ltd.
