Plastics and Resin Pellets Leakage Prevention from Factories and Informal Sector in ASEAN: Situation Assessment and Technical Guidelines

The Regional Resource Centre for Asia and the Pacific (RRC.AP) of the Asian Institute of Technology (AIT) with support from ERIA's Regional Knowledge Centre for Marine Plastic Debris conducted a project to develop and disseminate technical guidelines for plastics and resin pellets leakage prevention from factories and informal recycling sector in ASEAN countries. This project aimed to contribute to the prevention of plastic leakage and pollution in the ASEAN region.

Through this project, we harnessed best practices and insights from six cities: Pattaya and Nonthaburi (Thailand), Hanoi (Vietnam), Iloilo and Manila (the Philippines), and Vientiane (Lao PDR) to support the development of the situation assessment and technical guidelines.
