At present, the company uses 400 tonnes of recycled papers to produce 6.3 million units of egg tray every month mainly for local consumption. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He said the company sees the PEFC CoCCertification not only for the green cause but also as a good marketing tool to penetrate new markets and enhance their market presence. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cCurrently, most of our egg trays are utilised for our in-house egg brand and sold to local farms. With the PEFC label, we\u2019re gearing up our efforts to enhance our sales and tap into other potential markets.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe certification is an important milestone for us as it is one of the company\u2019s targets in going green. And turning wasted papers into an eco-friendly product is our way to help reduce congestions at the already limited dumpsites in our country. It\u2019s our little contribution for Malaysia,\u201d he added.&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Congratulating the company, MTCC chief executive officer Yong Teng Koon said the effort by TeoSeng Paper Products to have its paper egg trays certified is commendable and in line with the UN Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 12: Responsible Consumption and Production.&nbsp; In utilising recycled materials, the company has shown its business leadership in mainstreaming its sustainability practices to ensure resource efficiency, reduce waste and that material consumption does not lead to over-extraction of resources and degradation of environmental resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><br>\n<br><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>KUALA LUMPUR, 30 April 2020 \u2013 Johor-based Teo Seng Paper Products Sdn Bhd (Teo Seng Paper Products) stamped a mark in the local paper industry when it recently became the first company to obtain the Chain of Custody (CoC) Certification under the Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC) for its eco-friendly egg trays.
