ASUENE Establishes Thai Subsidiary ‘ASUENE (THAILAND) Ltd.’ and Provides “ASUENE” to “Thai Bridgestone”

ASUENE will establish “ASUENE (THAILAND) Ltd.” in Thailand, country with ambitious CO2 emissions reduction targets, to accelerate support to Thailand based companies in their efforts towards decarbonization and sustainable management through providing “ASUENE”, a leading carbon accounting platform in Asia.

Background of the Establishment of ASUENE THAILAND

ASUENE is a climate-tech startup with the mission of “Changing the world for the next generation”. Asuene provides the following services: Asuene, a cloud-based climate platform for measuring, reporting and reducing carbon emissions ; Asuene ESG, a cloud service for ESG evaluation of supply chain procurement; and Carbon EX, a carbon credit exchange market for Net Zero. We support net zero and ESG management and contribute to the creation of a sustainable society. ASUENE’s strength lies in delivering comprehensive one-stop solutions for decarbonization, supporting companies in advancing their decarbonization management.

Thailand has set ambitious targets to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050 and net-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2065. To reach these decarbonization goals, the country is actively advancing national policies, including mandating sustainability reporting for publicly listed companies, amending the “Climate Change Act,” and planning to introduce a carbon tax by 2025.

Thailand is also home to extensive manufacturing supply chains, particularly in the automotive industry. As large manufacturers worldwide increasingly require suppliers to reduce emissions, corporate transparency and reliable reporting on decarbonization efforts are expected to become even more critical in the coming years.

Future Developments and Implementation for Thai Bridgestone 

Asuene established a local subsidiary in central Bangkok, aiming to become a leading player in advancing decarbonization in Thailand. We launched our carbon accounting platform, “ASUENE,” and our ESG assessment cloud service, “ASUENE ESG,” for all companies based in Thailand. Alongside this launch, we are appointing a country manager to quickly expand businesses and operations in Thailand and will be actively recruiting for roles in sales and customer success to support our expansion.

“ASUENE” is already provided to over hundreds of major tire manufacturing sites. Like many others,  the industry is required by its suppliers to visualize and reduce CO2 emissions. The decision to implement  “ASUENE” was driven by its No.1 position as the leading solution in the manufacturing industry in Asia.
