Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) & Green Initiatives

The CSR Program focuses on the concept that a business has a social commitment both above and beyond making a profit. In Secret Recipe, we believe that CSR is a continued commitment to ethical behaviour, contributing to the country’s economic development as well as improving the quality of life for our society. It helps to accomplish commercial success in ways that honour high ethical values and respect towards communities and the environment. The CSR also creates esthetical value among our workers and encourages others to be more proactive in contributing to society and have high morality values.

Said site was also in preparation by Aiesec to be made a community garden in the future. A large number of wastes which included old fabrics, bits of ceramics/glass and most of all plastics were found in the dirty waters of Sungai Keroh. The activity as a whole helped bring us all together boosting company morale and teamwork together as a whole, as well as bring us all a sense of fulfilment that we are doing our part even in a small way to support our rivers and KL as a whole. However the amount of waste collected also portrays the severity of the pollution situation in KL as this was but one river and more waste had no doubt travelled further downstream prior to today's collection hence the situation and awareness needed for the public in managing waste, thus we cannot simply dump our rubbish anywhere.

Commitments of Management and Staff

Communications and training with staff are conducted in regards to environmental awareness and taking ownership of working areas as well as responsibilities. Environmental Bulletin boards have also been set up to highlight how we are keeping up to date with current environmental situations as well measures implemented by other groups in order to address them. By instilling our staff with environmental awareness and highlighting its importance they can be more liable to take action both within and outside the work area, as well as even help to educate others as well including friends and family.

Solid Waste Management

Solid Waste Management

All waste collected at our factories in both Kota Damansara and Taman Mayang are properly segregated by an effective waste management company, which is dedicated towards achieving Zero Waste. All recyclables are properly managed at their waste facility, plastics shredded then upcycled to make new products.
Scheduled waste is collected and treated properly by a licenced company which strives towards environmental industrial standards and also commits towards DOE, thus highlighting our responsibility in end to end projects.

Scheduled Waste Collection in Secret Recipe

Scheduled Waste Collection in Secret Recipe

Secret Recipe is involved in mass-producing various types of cakes and meals. As a food manufacturing company, scheduled waste wasn’t significant compared to Electronic, Steel or Chemical Manufacturing. Despite that, Secret Recipe has its’ own scheduled waste storage facility and segregation managed by a representative, who also notifies the Department of Environment regarding collection by the scheduled waste contractor and transporter. 2 types of scheduled waste can be found at Secret Recipe Manufacturing being Electronic Waste (SW110) and Spent Fluorescent Lights (SW109). All departments use electronics and machinery, and once broken, parts are disposed of and collected by technicians to be sent to storage for collection by the contractor. Electronic waste such as weighing scales, infra-red thermometers and other electronics used by other departments are sent directly to storage by the department supervisor. Secret Recipe’s current goal is to eliminate all fluorescent light usage and to replace them with led lights, in order to conserve energy usage for a better eco-friendly environment.
