The campaign aims to raise awareness and invite the public to recognize the value of repurposing used cooking oil to produce SAF. This clean fuel will play a significant role in reducing carbon dioxide emissions from the aviation industry. BSGF Company Limited is set to become Thailand’s first producer of SAF from used cooking oil. Moreover, the campaign aims to engage the public in taking responsibility for the environment by not disposing of used cooking oil in public areas without proper treatment, contributing to good health and a sustainable world.

“Fry to Fly” was an initiative by Thanachok Group, one of the co-investors in BSGF. Subsequently, BSGF further developed and expanded the network to collect used coking for SAF production.
