About SWAP Recycling

SWAP App aims to make sure no packaging becomes waste. Low-value plastic waste collected through the SWAP Recycling program is sent to Asia Green Roads factories in Thailand, where it is shredded, processed and made into new products and materials instead of going to landfill.

The SWAP Recycling program, and the SWAP Recycling App are co-developed under a joint partnership between Mars Incorporated, Second Life (represented by PUR Development Pte. Ltd.) and Asia Green Roads. Users are rewarded points which can be exchanged for products, deals and discounts from major brands around Thailand.

About the sponsors

Mars Petcare makes diverse products to serve the health and nutrition needs of the world’s pets. We take our responsibility for sustainable packaging seriously and are committed to encouraging recycling in Thailand. Through the partnership with Second Life, we sponsor the development of SWAP Application for smartphones, allowing consumers to send back their plastic waste to Asia Green Roads recycling centers while recording, tracking and facilitating the whole process including points redemption. This is to advance our shared vision for a future in which no packaging becomes waste.

Second Life (represented by PUR Development Pte. Ltd.) develops programs in partnership with organizations to collect and recycle plastic waste from the environment. Our partnership with the Asia Green Roads factory in Lamphun since 2020, has seen the collection of low-value waste throughout Thailand to be recycled into new products and materials.
