The covid pandemic has been quite challenging. We have had to strengthen our safety protocols in order to secure a safe working environment for our team.

All that is currently happening in the world (covid, international conflicts etc) is affecting every person/company to a certain degree. We will need to be proactive, agile and flexible to adapt to the new situation that is changing constantly.

The main challenge at the moment is the global logistic situation with freight rates at a very high levels.

As usual we will start the new year with a lot of enthusiasm and ready to implement all the new projects we have ahead.

Our main challenge is currently to adapt our services to the multiple regulatory changes resulting from the pandemic crisis.

Our firm has been appointed to assist clients in new set-up projects. We can also notice a new trend of companies moving their activities from China to SEA in general and Thailand in particular.

ENCAP belongs to ITPSA group headquartered in Barcelona. We produce additives for the animal feed and human food industries (antioxidants, pigments, enzymes, antimoulds) and offer analytical services in our laboratory to evaluate them and help our customers to solve the challenges they might face at production and maintaining the shelf life.

Research, production,analytical services.

Since animals and humans kept eating during COVID, this challenging time has not affected us as much as other industries. Is true that rocketing prices of logistics has been a big handicap.

The biggest impact for us will be the service of our laboratory with an international certification that will allow us to expand worldwide from the analytical services point of view.

The main challenge now are the high prices that we are experiencing due to inflation and we will have to adapt to the needs of the customers and navigate through this situation.

We will start the year with the opening of a production factory that will provide us more flexibility to supply our customers.

We decided to come to Thailand and create our own structure to become the headquarters of the Asia Pacific region. Bangkok is very well located with good communications and also holds one of the biggest fairs of our sector in the region.

Main focus is the commercialization of products from Siam Bioscience, our affiliated company focusing on R&D and manufacturing of biopharmaceuticals and biotechnology-derived products. We are also seeking opportunities to commercialize world-class medicines from other partners to complement Siam Bioscience product pipeline.

Sustainability Growth / Biopharmaceuticals / High quality with Cost effectiveness medicines

Covid-19 totally changes our world. Our challenge during COVID-19 pandemic is supply management of commercialized products. We have to ensure that all patients can continue to receive their prescribed medications smoothly while Siam Bioscience had to take responsibility for Covid-19 vaccine manufacturing during that period. All of our commercialized products are essential medicines. Their demand were increased dramatically during Covid-19 Pandemic. Moreover our company adapted its capability to serve healthcare need regarding to the pandemic especially during the early era of the pandemic. There was a medical supply shortage even a simple thing like 70% Alcohol (disinfectant). So we produced it and donated to the hospitals/clinics across country . We also collaborated with a government institute to develop COVITECT, the RT-PCR diagnostic kit to help our country in this crisis. To us, Covid-19 pandemic is not over yet but life has to go on. We are preparing to launch new products.
We can’t stop change. Thus, we have to prepare ourselves to manage it. We are in the VUCA World, Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity and Ambiguity. These will impact all industry. Proactive thinking, Growth mindset, Adaptation and Ability are fuel to build a winning culture.

Padel is one of the fastest growing sports in the world in terms of players and courts. In Asia the
sport is quite recent and our mision at Padel Asia is to develop Padel in Thailand and
make it as popular as it is worldwide

Padel Asia is the one stop partner for any Padel need in Thailand. We bring all the material needed to practice the sport, we can build the courts, and of course we teach anybody to play padel or to improve their level. This year we want to start the Thai National championship

On the one hand it has limited us because we had to stop our plans for the Thai national championships, but on the positive side we have experienced that a lot of people started to play padel as it is a
way to be active while other places were closed.

Padel is becoming very popular in Asia. In Thailand we have increased the number of courts available, and also we have more than 3000 people that have played with us. We are pretty sure
that that we will increase the numbers of courts and people in the years to come.
Padel is a sport that is easy at the beginning and is very addictive

We need to manage our growth wisely, we are a very dynamic team, but also our time is limited, we
need to prioritize to be sure that we can achieve our desired growth, and we are
convinced that we will do it

We are currently very active. We are building new courts , also we are talking to different stakeholders to find new Padel locations, and also we are starting to organize the Padel national championship

I came to Thailand to work on the hospitality business, at the same time in Spain I was a semi-professional soccer player, this open me many doors to be involved in sports in Thailand, and Padel
came natural , as is a sport that I am passionate about, and I believe will be a very popular sport in this country
