Visions for Sustainable Development

Based on the vision to “create and cohere sustainable value for a sustainable society," we hope to constantly create and cohere sustainable value to contribute to social sustainability. Based on the sustainable vision, we have developed three core strategies: “R&D and innovation," “steady operations," and “social inclusion," hoping to create value with stakeholders together. We extend the contents of the core strategies into seven key topics as the foundation for honest and reasonable partners to build visions.

As a member of the USI Group, we develop three sustainable principles: unity governance (U), sustainable development (S), and innovative technology (I) based on the group vision. Every year, we review the results of analysis of material topics and their consistency with the company’s sustainable principles, and evaluate and discuss the achievement of the annual performance to achieve the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
