On Thursday, April 13, 2023, Chandra Asri distributed 6 liters of plastic fuel, consisting of 2 liters of plastic gasoline and 4 liters of plastic kerosene, to fishermen and home-based businesses residing at the coast of Pangaradan Beach, Anyar Village, Serang Regency, Banten. This plastic fuel is generated from Chandra Asri's integrated waste management initiative (end-to-end plastic waste management) based on a circular economy principle, SAGARA and IPST ASARI (Industri Pengelolaan Sampah Terpadu, Atasi Sampah – Kelola Mandiri). These six liters of plastic fuel distributed by Chandra Asri are equivalent to converting 8 kilograms of low-value plastic waste from landfills. Previously, Chandra Asri had also distributed 1,079 liters of plastic fuel (equivalent to 1,402.7 kilograms of low-value plastic waste) to the people involved in the SAGARA program. The beneficiaries of this SAGARA program include 17 fishermen and 10 MSMEs in Anyar.
