Message from the President

The impacts of climate change have raised concerns worldwide, leading countries to declare and take actions towards achieving net-zero emissions. In 2022, Taiwan officially announced its 2050 net-zero pathway strategy. As responsible global citizens, we must actively respond to these challenges. Our company is committed to sustainable operations and continuously takes actions in the areas of governance, environment, and society to achieve phased goals and move towards the path of net-zero emissions and sustainable development.
In the sustainable development process, in 2023, BenQ Materials will enter a new phase. While maintaining the unchanged target of reaching net-zero emissions by 2050, we will not only continue implementing short, medium, and long-term plans but also gradually align with international trends and undertake corresponding actions.
 

Governance

BenQ Materials has always prioritized integrity and compliance in corporate governance. However, as the level of enterprise digitization continues to increase and the world becomes highly reliant on information technology, information security has become one of the top ten risks for global businesses. Faced with these threats, BenQ Materials has heightened its focus on information security. Since 2021, we have continuously obtained ISO 27001 certification for information security. Additionally, we conduct security assessments of our supplier partners, urging them to prioritize information security as well, in order to enhance the operational resilience of the entire value chain.
 

Environmental Sustainability

In terms of renewable energy, in addition to increasing the deployment of our own solar power generation, we have officially started procuring green energy since 2023 and gradually increasing the proportion of renewable energy usage. We aim to achieve the RE100 goal by 2040. With the trial implementation of the European Union's carbon border tax in 2023 and the introduction of carbon fees in Taiwan, carbon emissions will eventually have a cost. To proactively align with domestic and international policies, the company has established an internal carbon pricing mechanism. This mechanism aims to enhance the carbon reduction awareness of various business units internally, treat carbon as a cost, and incorporate it into their operational decision-making considerations.
 

Diversity and Inclusion

Diversity, inclusivity, and equality are advocated internationally in terms of human rights. BenQ Materials values the rights of every employee and has established a "Human Rights Policy" in accordance with international human rights commitments. This policy ensures that every employee at BenQ Materials enjoys their rightful entitlements and care.
 

Social Care

Externally, we continue to support localization efforts and care for disadvantaged groups. In 2022, we provided medical material resources to local governments and vulnerable communities in areas where our factories are located, such as Yunlin and Taoyuan. We offer timely assistance when they encounter difficulties. Combining our business operations with social contributions is the aspiration of BenQ Materials in our business management. In the future, we hope to create more impactful initiatives in social care actions.
