Water Resources Management
Importance and Mission
Water resources are a critical factor for business operations across all industries, including the Company's operations as a basic utilities service provider for customers within the Saha Group Industrial Parks. Effective water management is therefore essential to continuously meet operator water demand, reduce water scarcity risks, and strengthen service reliability.
The Company places strong emphasis on planning and managing water throughout the entire value chain — from source to discharge — to prevent and reduce potential impacts from water scarcity at both local and organizational levels, and to reduce risks from water access issues or water competition that may arise without systematic and efficient management. These operations reflect the Company's commitment to responsible water resource management under sustainable development principles, to ensure that both the Company and operators within the Saha Group Industrial Parks can conduct business continuously, with resilience to water risks and no adverse impacts on surrounding communities.

Water consumption reported for fiscal year 2025
| Operating Areas | Water Consumption (m3) | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | 2023 | |
| Bangkok Headquarters | Leased area (lump-sum service fee) | ||
| Saha Group Industrial Park Sriracha | 24,984.00 | 2,351,580.33 | 2,643,855.40 |

| Total | 98,026.10 | 6,991,427.69 | 7,753,914.12 |
In fiscal year 2025, the Company's total water consumption from all sources across all 8 operating areas amounted to 98,026.10 cubic meters, a decrease of 98.6 percent compared to fiscal year 2024. The primary cause of this reduction was an operational and scope-of-control restructuring: from fiscal year 2025 onwards, tap water production and management within the industrial parks has been placed under the management of Eastern Thai Consulting 1992 Company Limited, resulting in the associated water consumption being outside the Company's operational scope for the reporting period.
Water consumption reported for fiscal year 2025 therefore reflects only water use from the Company's core activities under its current operational scope. The Company continues to place strong emphasis on efficient water management and collaboration with relevant parties to support sustainable water resource utilization within its service areas.
Water Resource Risk Assessment
To assess and manage long-term water risks, the Company has incorporated scenario data from the WWF Water Risk Filter tool into its analysis. This tool develops risk scenarios by combining IPCC climate change scenarios (Representative Concentration Pathways — RCP) and Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSP), which are internationally recognized frameworks. For the years 2030 and 2050, the WWF Water Risk Filter defines three scenario types:
- Optimistic Scenario: RCP 2.6–4.5 combined with SSP1 reflecting a world capable of effectively reducing greenhouse gas emissions alongside social and economic development oriented toward sustainability
- Current Trend Scenario: RCP 4.5–6.0 combined with SSP2 a pathway in which the world develops along current trajectories, with moderate greenhouse gas reductions while still facing increasing water risks in some regions
- Pessimistic Scenario: RCP 6.0–8.5 combined with SSP3 reflecting a situation in which greenhouse gas emissions continue to increase while international cooperation declines, resulting in more severe water risks in terms of quantity, quality, and water use competition
Each scenario dataset was developed from a 2020 baseline representing current watershed risk values, supplemented by projected changes from future models, to enable the Company to assess impacts and develop water strategies as comprehensively as possible.
Assessment results for Water Scarcity — evaluating whether available water is sufficient to meet human, ecosystem, or economic activity demand — across all 8 operating areas indicate risk levels of 2.3–4.1, equivalent to moderate to high risk.
Water Resource Risk Management Measures and Approaches
To prevent risks of water resource scarcity in the Company's operations, the following prevention and impact mitigation measures have been established for managing water scarcity and water resource competition risks within the areas:
- Establish reserve water ponds or storage systems of sufficient capacity for use within the areas, capable of reserving water to meet demand within Saha Group Industrial Parks with capacities ranging from 120,000 to 1,000,000 cubic meters.
- Install high-efficiency water treatment systems to produce treated water for beneficial use within the projects.
- Maximize water circulation and reuse within the areas, such as using treated water for the Company's operational activities, green areas within the projects, and golf courses.
- Enter into long-term raw water purchase agreements with raw water service providers for the projects.
- Develop technologies or projects through promotional activities to reduce water consumption or improve water resource utilization efficiency.
Water Recycling within the Saha Group Industrial Parks
The Company operates in accordance with the criteria and indicators of the "Eco Industrial Town" framework, recognizing the importance of responsible and sustainable water resource utilization. The Company has set targets to improve water use efficiency through maximizing reuse of treated wastewater in accordance with Zero Discharge principles — to reduce dependence on raw water and reduce withdrawal from public water sources. To achieve these targets, the Company continuously controls and monitors water quality and manages water comprehensively — from the Saha Group Industrial Parks' central wastewater treatment processes through to the reuse of treated water in various areas under Company oversight, such as irrigation of green areas, cleaning, and other appropriate processes. This commitment reflects the Company's responsibility in reducing environmental impacts, promoting circular resource utilization, and supporting long-term sustainable industrial area development.
