Procurement and Development of Water Reserve Sources for Industrial Use
All AMATA Industrial Estates in Thailand are strategically located in the Eastern Region-an area recognized for its water stress. With foresight and responsibility, AMATA has proactively secured ample raw water reserves, both within and beyond the AMATA Industrial Estates, ensuring long-term water security. In addition, AMATA has significantly expanded the reuse of treated water, reducing dependence on natural water sources and reinforcing its commitment to sustainable industrial development.
Since 2008, AMATA U has successfully implemented two core strategies across AMATA Industrial Estates in Thailand, focusing on water resource development and improved water-use efficiency to reinforce water security and enable sustainable estate development.
With total industrial water demand reaching 60 million cubic meters per year, the Company maintains 17 operational surface raw water reservoirs with a combined storage capacity of 61 million cubic meters. In parallel, AMATA U has expanded the use of high-quality reclaimed water through an advanced water reclamation system, reducing reliance on surface raw water to 63% of total demand. As a result, surface raw water reserves now exceed 150% of total raw water requirements, fully aligned with the Company's water security policy.

Zero Discharge Concept
Water Management Based on Circular Economy Principles
The Company applies a Zero Discharge Concept, under which all treated wastewater is fully reclaimed and reused within its operations. Reclaimed water is converted into high-quality industrial water, reducing reliance on natural water resources, with the remainder used for power plant cooling and irrigation across AMATA Industrial Estates.
