OKLIN Joins Bangkok River Festival 2022 to Turn Food Waste into Fertilizer within 24 Hours
8th Thai Cultural Riverside Festival – “Rak Na Sai Nam” (Cherishing the River)
The Bangkok River Festival 2022, also known as the 8th Thai Cultural Riverside Festival, was held under the theme “Rak Na Sai Nam” (Cherishing the River) to celebrate and preserve the rich cultural heritage along the Chao Phraya River. The event combined lifestyle activities, entertainment, and eco-friendly initiatives in one unique riverside experience.
Visitors enjoyed shopping for local products, tasting delicious food from popular vendors, and relaxing to live music from renowned artists and university bands. They could also visit temples to make merit, enhancing the spiritual essence of the festival.
🚤 A special highlight was the Free Shuttle Boat Service to conveniently transport visitors between venues:
November 5–7, 2022 | 5:00 PM – 10:00 PM
November 8, 2022 | 5:00 PM – 12:00 AM
OKLIN’s Mission to “Cherish the River”
One of this year’s major highlights was the introduction of OKLIN food waste composting technology to manage food waste at the event. Using a natural microbial process, the OKLIN composter transforms food scraps into organic fertilizer within just 24 hours, significantly reducing the volume of waste sent to landfills, cutting methane emissions, and lowering the event’s overall carbon footprint.
OKLIN’s innovation requires no additional microbial starter during its lifetime, no filter changes, and produces high-quality fertilizer that can be immediately used for plants and green spaces. All food waste collected from food stalls and vendors during the festival was processed on-site, demonstrating an efficient and eco-friendly waste management solution.
A Cultural Festival with a Sustainable Vision
The Bangkok River Festival is more than just a cultural celebration—it’s a model for how events can integrate sustainability and circular economy principles. By converting food waste into valuable compost, the festival not only reduced environmental impact but also inspired both vendors and visitors to adopt greener habits.
Having OKLIN as part of the festival’s operations marked an important step forward for Thailand’s event industry, setting an example for Green & Sustainable Events where culture, community, and environmental responsibility come together in harmony.
If you want, I can also prepare this in a shorter, press release-style format so it’s ready for media publication. Would you like me to create that?
