HOMISON Partners with SEAL to Establish Vertical Supply Chain on e-Waste Recovery and Recycling with New Business Opportunities Explored

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach – 29 November 2021 – Seal Eco Advanced Co., Ltd. (SEAL, a Hong Kong plastic waste recycling company) and Homison Solutions Limited (a technology service company), signed a cooperation agreement today and forged a special supply chain partnership for e-waste recovery and recycling in Hong Kong. The partnership will join force to improve the overall performance of the supply chain.


The partnership is expected to turn the by-products of the e-waste especially plastic waste into useful raw materials through recycling, including all kinds of recycled plastic products, to realize the turning waste-into-energy goal.


At the signing ceremony, the contracting parties called on Hong Kong enterprises to fulfil their corporate social responsibilities by actively and properly dealing with e-waste and solving the problem of carbon emissions. It is hoped that this cooperation model will not only open up local business opportunities for turning waste into energy, but also provide a successful case for local enterprises in sustainable development.


According to the Global E-Waste Monitor 2020, only 17.4% of the e-waste was documented as formally collected and recycled, with most of the rest sent to landfills.

The figures released by Hong Kong Environmental Protection Department revealed that around 70,000 tons of e-Waste and 5,400 tons of plastic waste are generated annually in Hong Kong, which poses a heavy burden on the environment.

“With the increasing availability of information technology and the surging demand for data capacity, the scale of data center is becoming larger and larger. We often have to install new electronic equipment and replace the old ones for customers. In the face of the increasing e-waste, we always hope to find appropriate environmental protection experts to tackle the issue together,” Jason Wu, CEO of HOMISON, said.

However, the upcycling and recycling of e-waste among local enterprises has fallen short of expectation and has yet to become a universal practice. For example, there are less than 20 service providers in Hong Kong that can legally handle e-waste, and the recycling process has yet to meet the global recovery standard (GRS).


SEAL is one of the few plastic waste recyclers with GRS Certificate in Hong Kong, which proves that all its recycling and production processes strictly meet the GRS certification standard. GRS certification can also ensure that the products produced and manufactured are really from waste recycling.


In view of this, the two parties reached a cooperation agreement initiated by the STARS Foundation. It is planned that HOMISON will be responsible for managing the e-waste and its by-products collected from customers. While SEAL, upon collection of the discarded products, will have them demagnetized, drilled and shredded to ensure no data leakage, and will turn the plastic materials to recycled plastic particles in their Fanling plant in strict compliance with the regulations of the Hong Kong Environmental Protection Department. The recycled plastic particles will be made into various types of recycled plastic products to reduce new plastics generated from oil mining.


Carla Lam, Marketing Director of SEAL, remarked, “We are glad to expand our recycling business to electronic products recycling. We have never stopped to develop high-quality recycled products to meet the increasing market demand. We hope, through this cooperation, to enhance our product diversification with more recycling items. If our partnership could help Hong Kong enterprises reduce the import of recycled plastic particles from the Mainland or foreign countries, we will be able to significantly reduce the carbon footprint of transportation.”

Jason Wu of HOMISON said, “Our commitment on the proper disposal of electronic waste together with practical implementation has won the trust and support of our customers. We hope to continue to be the service provider of choice for customers in IT solutions’ business, and protect the environment with concerted efforts.”


MP3 Communications, a strategic partner of HOMISON, is an innovative communications consultancy. It has also played an active role in fostering the cooperation. One of its businesses is to help enterprises apply environmental, social and governance (ESG) strategies, formulate long-term business policies and promote sustainable development.


Danielle Kwan, Founder and CEO of MP3 Communications, said, “It is a big trend for enterprises to incorporate ESG into their operating standards. ESG strategy can help create a better society, reduce damage to the environment, and create more business opportunities. We hope to convey our “Inclusion2gather” message to enterprises through this HOMISON X SEAL partnership. Let’s work together to thrive in life and business.”


Pak Kwan, Vice Chairman of STARS Foundation, believes that this cooperation can set another model of voluntary cooperation among enterprises on proper treatment of e-waste, for the business community and the public to take reference.

“The cooperation between HOMISON and SEAL is a proactive response to the Waste Blueprint for Hong Kong 2035 launched by the HKSAR Government in February 2021, advocating “Waste Reduction‧Resources Circulation‧Zero Landfill” (2R1C) including the implementation of municipal solid waste charges to reduce the per capita disposal rate and improve the recovery rate,” Pak Kwan added, “The cooperation agreement signed by the two companies provides an additional way to recover and properly dispose of e-waste, while advocating the turning waste into energy practice to reduce e-waste and curb pollution.”

Rhenus Logistics Indonesia Sets Up New Office in Medan

Strategic addition of Rhenus presence in North Sumatra’s capital will strengthen its business development plans, especially in agriculture and forestry sectors.


JAKARTA, INDONESIA – Media OutReach – 29 November 2021 – Leading global logistics service provider Rhenus has opened a new branch in Indonesia. Located in Medan, North Sumatra, it is the fourth office under Rhenus Logistics Indonesia.

Medan serves as a well-known trading hub for the agricultural sector as well, in particular palm oil.

 

This will also enhance connectivity to Kualanamu International Airport, which offers access to many Asian countries as well as the Middle East and Europe, as well as the Port of Belawan, Indonesia’s busiest seaport outside of Java.

“With the presence of Rhenus Logistics in Medan, it becomes a continuation point for the development of business and logistics services on the island of Sumatra. This move is in line with our goal to strengthen synergistic efforts for business coordination across Jakarta, Batam, Singapore and Malaysia,” said Iwan Juniar, General Manager, Rhenus Air & Ocean, Indonesia.

CP Foods Singapore Launches MEAT ZERO, Thailand’s Best Selling Plant-Based Brand With Over 4 Million Packs Sold Since Its Launch

Six products to enjoy under this range, all priced affordably to cater to the masses

SINGAPORE – Media OutReach – 29 November 2021 – Around the world, the trend of becoming flexitarian — people who consume vegetarian meals once or twice a week — is rising. According to Euromonitor International’s report entitled “Voice of the Consumer: Health and Nutritional Survey (fielded January/February 2021)”, 23% of global consumers want to reduce their meat consumption and 16% are aiming for a plant-based diet. This has in turn spurred demand for meatless food options. While there are already meatless options in the market, most of them are pricey. MEAT ZERO‘s plant-based meat range, which comprises four products and two ready-to-eat meals, fills this gap.

 

“The future looks bright for meatless meals, with the number of vegans, vegetarians and flexitarians altogether constituting about 29% of the global population,” says Mr Prasit Boondoungprasert, Chief Executive Officer of CP Foods. “MEAT ZERO’s affordable price point will make this lifestyle more accessible to those who are looking to adopt a sustainable diet. The incredible taste will also convert sceptics.”

 

It took more than three years to produce the plant-based meat products and 2,000 experiments helmed by hundreds of researchers and teams from CPF Food Research and Development Centre. MEAT ZERO partnered with Fuji Oil from Japan, a world-class plant-based products company, as well as  experts from the U.S and Taiwan to develop Plant-Tec innovation. The innovation makes plant-based ingredients taste just like meat.

 

Traditionally, low-moisture extrusion is used to texturise protein into meat analogue. For MEAT ZERO future product development, the high-moisture meat analogue process is used to texturise vegetable proteins into a product with a fibrous texture akin to animal meat. The appearances, mouthfeel and texture of the products are similar to those of real meat. They are of equal nutritional value. High-fibre, non-GMO soy — which keeps cholesterol levels in check — as well as pea, wheat and corn, are the key ingredients.

The MEAT ZERO range includes the following items:

 

Meat Zero Plant-based Nugget (Frozen) – $3.50 (UP$4.50):

When deep- or air-fried to a golden-brown perfection, the nuggets have an airy crisp and a bite that is indistinguishable from the meat version. Pair it with roasted sweet potato fries for a guilt-free western-style meal!

Meat Zero Plant-based Bologna Ham (Chilled) – $3.35 (UP$3.95):

 Make your own charcuterie board with this ham, an assortment of olives, dried fruits and crackers.

Meat Zero Plant-based Chilli Bologna Ham (Chilled) – $3.35 (UP$3.95):

Each slice comes with red and green chilli, which lend a fiery kick in every bite. Layer it atop sourdough toast and vegan scrambled egg for a simple yet satisfying sandwich. 

 

Meat Zero Plant-Based Patty (Frozen) – $3.50 (UP$4.50):

Build your own katsu burger at home with this offering. The crunchy crumb is infused with the sharp note of garlic and the fragrance of herbs. The cooked patty is high in protein and free of trans fat.

Meat Zero Plant-Based Meat And Basil With Rice (Frozen) – $4.55 (UP$5.50):

Get whisked away to the Land of Smiles with this staple. The meat teases with a spicy note, and the sauce goes impeccably with the accompanying fluffy rice. The offering contains no cholesterol and is a great source of protein.

 

Meat Zero Plant-Based Spaghetti Bolognese (Frozen) – $4.55 (UP$5.50):

Enjoy this Italian classic in just four minutes of microwaving time. The alternative meat is soused in a lovely and sweet tomato-based sauce.

*Promotion price applies to selected retailers.

 

CP’s MEAT ZERO will be available at Cold Storage, NTUC FairPrice, FairPrice Online, RedMart, Amazon, Caltex, SPC and Sinopac Petrol Kiosks.

Give the gift of eye comfort with BenQ EW3880R and GW2785T eyecare monitors this festive season

BenQ’s upgraded eyecare technology provides safer screen time for healthier digital lifestyles, making them ideal Christmas gifts for entertainment and work in a screen-centric world

SINGAPORE – Media OutReach – 29 November 2021 – BenQ, a global leader in digital lifestyle technology, is launching two additions to the EW and GW range this holiday season: the EW3880R 37.5-inch curved monitor and EW2880U 28-inch 4K monitor for entertainment junkies and the GW2785TC 27-inch and GW2485TC 24-inch FHD monitors for young students and busy professionals.

 

As the gifting season approaches, consumers should look no further than BenQ’s unique gifts that are perfect for this hyper-digital world. These monitor screens incorporate upgraded eyecare technologies designed to reduce eye strain and provide specialised features such as HDRi and Truesound by treVolo speakers in the EW series, or a built-in noise-cancelling microphone and dedicated learning modes for the GW series, making them ideal gifts for work or leisure this Christmas.

 

EW3800R 37.5-inch curved and EW2880U 28-inch 4K monitors provide a high-quality cinematic entertainment experience

For Korean drama fans, the EW3880R 37.5-inch curved monitor and EW2880U 28-inch 4K monitor screens upgrade your entertainment viewing experience at home. The EW3880R 37.5 inch 21:9 ultra-wide viewing brings stunning visual performance and an immersive experience with HDRi technology, enhancing HDR content with intelligent control. It also supports a 24P frame rate to bring an authentic cinematic experience with WQHD+ (3840x 1600) resolution. Audiophiles can delight in a high-quality sensory experience as truesound by treVolo provides crisp audio through two speakers, complete with an in-built 8W subwoofer to enjoy your latest movies. At the same time, the remote control enables users to adjust audiovisual settings from the comfort of their seats quickly. Finally, the EW series monitors support various display interfaces, including USB-C with 60W power delivery for quick charging. The sleek, industrial design of the EW monitor series will add a touch of elegance to any home.   The EW2880U 28-inch 4K monitor is also available to fit smaller spaces.

 

The GW2785TC 27-inch and GW2485TC 24-inch FHD monitors for productivity and eye protection for busy professionals and college students

In today’s hybrid work environment, inbuilt productivity features of monitors keep young professionals focused in the office or in the comfort of their homes. The built-in noise-cancelling microphone filters out background noise to give meeting attendees clear audio — even in noisy environments — while Dialogue Mode makes voices audible during calls and online video meetings. Meanwhile, BenQ has launched a suite of learning capabilities to encourage professionals to acquire new skills in the spirit of lifelong learning in Singapore. For instance, coders will find improved efficiency in coding sessions and in realising software projects with Coding Mode, which brings out colours in text for easy distinguishing of strings of code. Care Mode protects eyes by lowering the on-screen brightness and colour saturation for more comfortable viewing. Finally, the ePaper mode filters harmful blue light, prevents eye fatigue for blog content and provides a natural online reading experience. For a complete workstation setup, two to four monitors can be connected via Daisy Chain for a multi-monitor setup, providing extra screen real estate and a decluttered workspace.

 

BenQ has also launched a brand new software, Eye-careU, to ensure optimum eye health. This software will be first featured in the GW2485TC, GW2785TC and EW2880U monitor screens. From screen time reminders to adaptive brightness, BenQ Eye-CareU blends software and hardware for the most comfortable viewing experience. Consumers can easily access eye-comfort features with just one click.

 

In addition, both GW and EW series feature BenQ’s eyecare technology, including Brightness Intelligence, and the GW series features upgraded Low Blue Light Plus to protect your eyes. Certified by Eyesafe, Low Blue Light Plus works by filtering out the shorter, higher energy blue-violet radiation harmful to the eyes while preserving blue hues in images to maintain colour accuracy.

 

“Ten years ago, BenQ pioneered eyecare innovation with the release of the world’s first flicker-free and low blue light screen displays. This is ever more relevant today, as Singaporeans continue to experience higher screen time after the pandemic”, said Jeffrey Liang, President of BenQ Asia Pacific. “As the digital display company with the longest-running commitment to eyecare in the market, we continue to encourage our consumers to adopt good eyecare habits, complementing this with enhanced home productivity and entertainment setups through the holiday season”.

 

Both EW and GW series features a USB Type-C port that delivers fast audio, video, and 60 watt-quick charging of mobile devices via a single cable.
