Environmental Management
BenQ Materials has established a comprehensive environmental management framework covering energy and greenhouse gas management, water resource management, and waste management, with corresponding policies in place to actively manage resource use across multiple aspects. Specific environmental management targets have also been set. In alignment with global environmental concerns and trends, BenQ Materials conducts annual internal audits and third-party verifications to ensure the effectiveness of its management systems. The company's major operational sites are certified under the ISO 14001 Environmental Management System. Additionally, the Taoyuan site is certified under the ISO 46001 Water Efficiency Management System. Furthermore, the Taoyuan, Longtan, Suzhou, Wuhu, Yunlin Polymer, and Yunlin Manufacturing Site III have obtained ISO 50001 Energy Management System certification. ISO 14067 Carbon Footprint verification has also been completed for products including polarizers, textile fabrics, and battery materials.

Biodiversity and No Deforestation Commitment
BenQ Materials has released the “Biodiversity and No Deforestation Policy,” integrating biodiversity and forest protection into our core sustainability agenda. The Sustainability Committee oversees governance and implementation, and nature-related risk management is embedded in corporate governance and day-to-day operations.
Our Commitments
-
Align with international frameworks (e.g., CBD/SDGs) and company policies to continuously reduce impacts on nature and create positive contributions.
-
Implement the mitigation hierarchy: avoid → minimize → restore → offset.
-
No deforestation & responsible sourcing: avoid development or sourcing in protected areas or high conservation value areas.
-
Regularly assess biodiversity risks and opportunities and integrate the results into enterprise risk management.
-
Engage stakeholders and provide training to strengthen internal and external capabilities.
