Corsair Group is an international group of companies dedicated to developing viable business solutions for critical global environmental challenges, including plastic waste, air pollution, water pollution, and climate change.
Established in 2020 in Thailand and the Netherlands, with its Global Head Office in Bangkok and its European Head Office in Amsterdam, Corsair currently employs approximately 100 people worldwide. The company focuses on coordinating, developing, and financing environmentally friendly and ecologically significant businesses and projects, creating meaningful impact while fostering sustainable growth.
Today, Corsair stands as the fastest-growing company in the industry of plastic waste chemical recycling. It is operational across both Asia and Europe and is actively expanding its presence in multiple regions worldwide, including North America, Asia, Europe, and the Middle East. Through more than five years of successful operations, Corsair has demonstrated its ability to scale, innovate, and deliver measurable environmental outcomes on a global level.
Corsair is also the developer and issuer of the world’s leading plastic credit program, the CSR Plastic Credit, providing a pioneering mechanism to drive accountability, sustainability, and transparency in plastic waste management.
Complementing this, Corsair’s revolutionary affiliate marketing platform, Corsair Connect, has cultivated a global community of ambassadors and influencers who facilitate high-level connections with governments, strategic partners, and key stakeholders, supporting the company’s rapid expansion and influence worldwide.
The company collaborates closely with strategic partners in the petrochemical industry and is positioning itself to become one of the largest plastic waste pyrolysis recycling enterprises in the world. Corsair has set an ambitious target of converting 1.5 billion kilos of plastic waste annually into over 1 billion liters of pyrolysis oil, which is then utilized by the petrochemical industry to produce more sustainable, circular, and environmentally friendly plastic products.
Corsair’s overarching objective is to establish and nurture strategic business partnerships with both technical and financial companies, as well as governmental institutions worldwide, creating scalable solutions that combine ecological responsibility with long-term economic value.
The name Corsair has deep historical and linguistic roots. It originates from the Latin word cursus - meaning “course.” ‘ “journey,” or “expedition” - which evolved into the Italian corsaro and later the French corsaire.
Historically, a corsaire was a highly skilled, state-commissioned sailor or navigator, authorised to venture into uncharted waters, undertake daring missions, and return with results.
We chose this name because it reflects our spirit of exploration, purpose, and resilience.
Much like those legendary corsairs, we embark on expeditions into new and often uncertain territory - in our case, pioneering advanced solutions to tackle the global plastic waste crisis.
While the name carries a historical connection to adventure and exploration, our mission is firmly focused on the future - steering the course toward environmental transformation.
