Under the initiative of the President of Mongolia and as part of the “Billion Trees” national movement, 35,000 trees are being planted in October around six gorges of Bogd Khan Mountain, specifically near the Baruun Zalaat area. These newly planted trees are being watered with purified water from the MCS Coca-Cola factory.

MCS Coca-Cola was the first among Mongolian food manufacturers to establish a wastewater purification facility in 2010. This facility can purify 99% of all water used in the factory’s technological processes. The purified water from this facility fully complies with:

• MNS 4943 : 2015 standard “Requirements for water supplied to the environment”
• MNS 6734 : 2018 standard “General requirements for reused purified water and technical water”

Minister of Environment and Tourism, B. Bat-Erdene, stated:

In the “Billion Trees” national movement, to ensure the planted trees provide economic benefits, the government promotes the use of greywater or reservoir water for irrigation rather than potable water. Organizations that purify and reuse industrial water need economic incentives, such as exemptions from water fees, and we plan to focus on creating such a legal environment.

Director of the Forest Agency, B. Oyunsanaa, added: The trees in the six gorges of Bogd Khan Mountain will receive autumn irrigation now and another irrigation during spring snowmelt. Trees generally do not require water unless pollution levels are very high. The purified water from MCS Coca-Cola meets standards suitable for purposes other than drinking, making it fully appropriate for tree irrigation.

MCS Coca-Cola Company Awarded “UN Sustainable Development Leader” for its “World Without Plastic Waste” Program. MCS Coca-Cola’s “World Without Plastic Waste” initiative has been recognized with the United Nations’ “Sustainable Development Leader” award. Through this initiative and with investment from TML Company, Mongolia has, for the first time, launched a world-class plastic recycling facility.

This achievement positions MCS Coca-Cola to become the first company in Mongolia to use recycled plastic packaging in its products.

Through the “World Without Plastic Waste” program, the company contributes to the UN Sustainable Development Goals on responsible consumption and climate change mitigation, as well as Mongolia’s “Vision-2050” long-term development policy promoting green growth.

The initiative invites participation nationwide, encouraging everyone to protect and care for our planet.

As part of its corporate social responsibility, MCS Coca-Cola has announced its goal to recycle all beverage bottles sold by 2030. To achieve this, the company has launched the “World Without Waste” campaign, encouraging the public to sort and recycle their plastic bottles.

Globally, Coca-Cola has promoted this initiative since 2018 across over 200 countries, urging its bottling partners to ensure that every bottle sold is matched by a bottle recycled.

Actively joining this environmentally and socially significant effort, MCS Coca-Cola has become the first in Mongolia to start a plastic bottle recycling project.  As a result, the TML plastic recycling plant, established by MCS Coca-Cola, began operations last year.

In Mongolia, approximately 18,000 tons of plastic bottles are used annually. The TML plant, with a recycling capacity of 20,000 tons per year, can recycle and reuse each plastic bottle an average of five times.

About 80 employees of MCS Coca-Cola successfully participated in the annual Ulaanbaatar Marathon, an international running event held as a tradition every year.

In addition to participating actively as teams from different departments and the company’s volunteer council, employees also ran together with their families in the marathon, which aims to promote running as a sport and public fitness.

MCS Coca-Cola implements policies that create a healthy and safe working environment and support employees’ well-being and active, sporty lifestyles. To encourage staff participating in this year’s event, the team gathered at the Bonaqua booth to have breakfast together, do warm-up exercises, play fun games, and take commemorative photos.

The marathon, which attracts thousands of runners and enthusiasts, is sponsored by MCS Coca-Cola under its Bonaqua water brand.

   “On the occasion of World Water Day, observed under the theme “Groundwater”, MCS Coca-Cola LLC is presenting an overview of how the company treats and reuses its factory wastewater. In 2010, it became the first food industry company in Mongolia to establish a wastewater treatment facility.

Since then, the water used daily in the production process has been purified using MRB technology. This treated water meets the standards (MNS 6734:2018) suitable for irrigation of green spaces, car washing, concrete production, firefighting, and use in recycling plants.Organizations that wish to protect drinking water resources are encouraged to become users of MCS Coca-Cola LLC’s treated water.

The “Entrepreneur” awards, organized by the Mongolian National Chamber of Commerce and Industry (MNCCI), recognize the top enterprises, organizations, and business leaders who make a tangible contribution to the socio-economic development of Mongolia.

MCS Coca-Cola LLC was honored as the “Featured Enterprise of the Year” and as an organization implementing “Sustainable Production Management”
