Technology Transfer of<br />

LCA & Eco-Design to <strong>Thai</strong>land<br />

Initiated by MTEC in 2002<br />

through Green Manufacturing Technical<br />

Assistance Program (GMTAP)<br />

…. Technical support by Japanese Government<br />

under Green Partnership Plan (GPP)<br />

Phase I (Nov 2002 – Mar 2004)<br />

focus on … “Capacity building on LCA/ Eco-Design/ 3R”<br />

Phase II (Apr 2005 – Mar 2007)<br />

focus on… “Establishment of <strong>Thai</strong> <strong>National</strong> <strong>LCI</strong> <strong>Database</strong>”


Summary of Activities During<br />

Nov 2002- 2002 Feb 2008<br />

6 Technical trainings on LCA and EcoDesign in Japan<br />

17 Visits of 10 Japanese experts<br />

> 20 Workshops/seminars on LCA and EcoDesign in <strong>Thai</strong>land<br />

Output/ Outcome<br />

~ 100 local trainers from over 25 organizations on LCA and EcoDesign<br />

>20 seminars & workshops disseminated to > 1,000 participants<br />

Technical support to 1 pilot R&D project with industrial partner<br />

(Eco-compressor project)<br />

Technical support to several in-house <strong>LCI</strong>/LCA projects (Rotary compressor/<br />

Refrigerator/ Some basic materials/ Bio-degradable plastic bag)<br />
