This collaboration marks another important step in CORSAIR's mission to scale up sustainable advanced recycling of plastic waste. The agreement with KERA Energy signals growing international demand for CORSAIR's high-quality pyrolysis oil derived from everyday household plastic waste.
'We are very pleased to partner with KERA Energy, a company that shares our vision of a cleaner, circular economy,' said Jussi Veikko Saloranta, CEO of CORSAIR. 'KERA's extensive expertise and market access will allow us to accelerate our environmental impact and expand our reach globally.'

With a processing capacity of up to 300,000 tons per year and compliance with ISCC+ and REACH regulations, KERA is at the forefront of enabling circular and bio-based feedstock solutions for the chemical and refining industries.
'We are proud to partner with CORSAIR as we jointly work to eliminate plastic waste from our environment,' said Shane Perl, CEO of KERA Energy.
By utilizing CORSAIR's pyrolysis oil, produced from mixed plastic household waste at facilities in Thailand, Finland and its future facilities, KERA will support the production of new, sustainable plastics and chemicals, reducing dependency on fossil-based virgin feedstocks, diverting plastic waste destined for landfill or incineration and contributing to a closed-loop system for plastic materials.
'We work with pyrolysis companies from concept to technical development and on to commercially optimizing their circular and bio-based oil products.'
Simon Housecraft, Head of Sustainable Materials at KERA, states: 'We are committed to building a bridge between environmental goals and industrial performance, and this partnership with CORSAIR embodies that commitment. We believe CORSAIR will remain one of the global leaders within this market sector with ambitious but, realistic expansion plans. As a partnership, we believe we can successfully deliver circularity to our market sector'
With this new alliance, CORSAIR strengthens its role as the fastest growing company in advanced plastic recycling and takes another key step toward a world where waste is transformed into valuable resources for the future.

BANGKOK, THAILAND - Media OutReach Newswire - 20 June 2025 - The National Innovation Agency (Public Organization) or NIA, under the Ministry of Higher Education, Science, Research and Innovation, has announced its readiness to host the Startup x Innovation Thailand Expo 2025 (SITE 2025) under the theme: 'Global Innovation Partnership – AI & Sustainability: The Next Era of Innovation,' to be held from July 4–6, 2025, at Paragon Hall, 5th Floor, Siam Paragon. This year marks a significant milestone as SITE evolves into a truly regional platform for innovation. Thailand is positioning itself as a Global Innovation Collaboration Hub, uniting the strength of 10 leading partner countries: Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong, Singapore, Czech Republic, Hungary, Finland, Switzerland, Qatar, and Chile—spanning Asia, Europe, the Middle East, and Latin America. In addition, over 100 organizations will participate, including 20 international agencies, 12+ leading private-sector companies, 7 professional associations, and 50 universities from across Thailand. IMG 0419 'More Than an Expo – A Global Collaboration Platform' Dr. Krithpaka Boonfueng, Executive Director of NIA, stated: 'SITE 2025 is more than an expo—it's a platform where meaningful global collaboration takes place with depth, inclusivity, and a shared purpose. With AI and sustainability at the core of the global economy, our goal is to drive real-world impact across business, investment, and innovation policy.' The 2025 edition of SITE will feature more than 30 seminars, covering the full spectrum of global innovation across three major stages: Main Stage – the 'heart' of the event, where international thought leaders will share visionary insights and the latest trends in AI, sustainability, and cross-border collaboration. Global Stage – in-depth policy and strategy sessions exploring opportunities, challenges, and pathways to bring innovation to the global market. Pitch Stage – a dedicated arena for Thai and international startups to pitch their ideas, promote technologies, and scale their ventures in front of global investors. Highlights: From Global Policy to Groundbreaking Pitches One of the major highlights on the Pitch Stage will be the National Pitching Startup Thailand League 2025, alongside the 100 Startup Pitching showcase, featuring cutting-edge technologies such as AI, Deep Tech, and sustainability-driven innovation.

This is a platform to connect with global players, update on future trends, and create meaningful change together. It's also a critical opportunity to help drive Thailand forward in alignment with the 'Groom – Grant – Growth – Global' strategy.' The 30+ Business Matching rounds are designed to help entrepreneurs meet with investors and technology owners in a targeted and impactful way. Special Panel at the Press Conference: 'Accelerating Innovation Through Global Partnerships' This session highlighted cross-sector collaboration driving Thai innovation to the global stage. From the government perspective, Mr. Pariwat Wongsamran, Deputy Executive Director of Innovation System at NIA, said: 'Innovation today knows no national borders. What NIA is doing is not just about giving opportunities to entrepreneurs—it's about laying the foundation for an ecosystem that connects Thailand to the world in a tangible way. Through partnerships in Europe and Asia, we're not only focusing on current innovations but also building infrastructure to support long-term growth so that Thai startups can scale more sustainably.' Ms. Salinee Phonprapai, Deputy Director-General of the Department of International Economic Affairs, added: 'Innovation is now a key engine driving Thailand's economy. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is pushing Thai startups onto the global stage through a network of 98 embassies and consulates worldwide. We're also working with partners like NIA, BOI, EEC, depa, and the Department of Trade Negotiations to promote investment, open new markets, and facilitate trade deals. In addition, visa policies are being introduced to attract global talent to enhance Thailand's innovation ecosystem.' On the private sector and innovation business side, Na Ranong, President of the Thai Venture Capital Association (TVCA), emphasized: 'Global partnership is the heart of modern investment.

Inogen Alliance Associate Awards: Environment Analyst Sustainability Delivery Award and Antea Group Innovation Award

ST. PAUL, Minn., June 20, 2025 /3BL/ - Inogen Alliance is proud to announce recent awards and short-listed award entries from multiple Associate companies, including Antea Group USA, Antea Group Belgium, Antea Group France, Antea Group Netherlands, CDG Environmental Costa Rica, and Tonkin + Taylor New Zealand. The awards included the Global Innovation Awards with Antea Group, as well as the Environment Analyst Sustainability Delivery Awards, where CDG Environmental was shortlisted, and Tonkin + Taylor won Transportation Project of the Year for the second consecutive year. Environment Analyst Sustainability Delivery Awards Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency, in collaboration with Taranaki Whānui ki Te Upoko o Te Ika, Ngāti Toa Rangatira, and Te Ara Tupua Alliance; Tonkin + Taylor, Downer NZ, HEB Construction, is thrilled to announce that the Te Ara Tupua Project has been awarded the Transportation Project of the Year at the Environment Analyst Sustainability Delivery Awards. Te Ara Tupua is a shared walking and cycling path that will provide a vital connection between Wellington and Petone, while strengthening the resilience of a nationally significant transport corridor. In an earthquake prone city and along a windswept coastline, the project is designed to withstand the environmental, social, and economic challenges inherent to the region. It also enhances the resilience of the adjacent Hutt Valley rail line and State Highway 2, two critical components of the national transport network. At the heart of Te Ara Tupua is a unique partnership model that has been in place since the project's inception. Waka Kotahi, New Zealand Transport Agency, has worked in close collaboration with iwi Taranaki Whānui ki Te Upoko o Te Ika and Ngāti Toa Rangatira, to develop a shared approach that reflects the intergenerational view of Māori. This relationship is formalised through the Project Steering Group, where iwi representatives are involved in all aspects of the project, including procurement, design, construction, monitoring and compliance. Ngā Ūranga ki Pito-One, the middle section of Te Ara Tupua, includes a 4.5-kilometre shared path constructed along reclaimed coastline. The design incorporates seawalls, revetments, culvert extensions, and ūranga – gathering and viewing points that offer space for rest, reflection, and reconnection with the habour environment. The project is now approximately 60 percent complete and is scheduled for completion in 2026. From the outset, the project team developed a Project Sustainability Policy to embed environmental, social, and cultural sustainability into every stage of the project's lifecycle. Te Ara Tupua is using the Infrastructure Sustainability Council (ISC) rating scheme to measure its performance across 25 categories, exceeding standard practice in several key areas. The completed path is projected to increase walking and cycling by approximately 1,700 journeys per day. The shift toward active transport modes will continue to contribute to emission reduction, support public health outcomes, and ease pressure on existing transport networks. Read more about the project with Tonkin + Taylor here. Read more about the Environment Analyst Sustainability Delivery Awards and our Associate short-listed entries here. Short-listed for the Nature Positive Award was Associate CDG Environmental Costa Rica, with Zapotal Golf & Beach Club. The Zapotal Golf & Beach Club project stands as a beacon of nature-positive development, delivering measurable benefits across multiple domains. Its wildlife protection efforts have boosted biodiversity, establishing a baseline to analyze behavioral trends of key species in the area. Landscape conservation has revitalized hundreds of hectares of native vegetation, while water management innovations aim to minimize pressure on the local aquifer. The use of RESIN8 technology on paved surfaces exemplifies sustainable infrastructure, cutting emissions and waste, and the archaeological program preserves the region's rich cultural heritage. Together, these initiatives reflect a commitment to enhancing ecosystems, conserving resources, and honoring history.
