The contractor sector, Dr. Teeradetch Tungsubutra, Chief Executive Officer, Ritta Company Limited said, “The circular economy principle from the perspective of the construction company may be difficult to execute because the products in this industry have a relatively long period of use. Also, when they are no longer in use, the products are often newly constructed based on modern design. However, the circular economy principle can still be applied during various construction processes, such as the reduction of packaging materials, waste management, reduction of consumables, the management of leftovers from the construction process for reuse as well as the reduction of energy and water usage. There are also good examples from many companies in the construction industry and a driving force that helps us try to create new innovations or guidelines that will help drive the circular economy for creating sustainability and reducing environmental problems for the next generations.”
