in Asia
Sustainable resource management is important everywhere. But in China, it is critical. SUEZ was one of the first foreign enterprises to invest in China. Our presence in China for more than 45 years makes SUEZ a preferred partner in helping authorities and industrial clients develop innovative solutions for climate change and sustainable resource management. Today SUEZ has more than 70 projects based on partnerships with local authorities and companies spanning Mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan, with over 32 million people benefiting from our water and waste services. We are recognized as one of the most influential and benchmarking environmental companies in the industry. Moreover, China’s environmental resource concerns are unique, and we cannot rely on imported technologies from abroad to address them all. Since 2003, SUEZ has developed four R&D centres in Shanghai and Chongqing designed to develop solutions that are tailor-made for local needs.
SUEZ has started its journey in Asia since 1953 to help the authorities achieve sustainable development goals. We have built more than 300 water and wastewater treatment plants and are committed to designing innovative solutions that create value for our customers, the cities and industry. In the recent years, we contribute to the region’s circular economy by developing smart solutions in Singapore and building waste to energy plant and plastic waste recycling plant in Thailand.
