Contractor Management

• Regularly implement safety and health lectures for contractors to reduce the possibility of occupational accidents and ensure the safety of construction-related personnel.

Energy saving, water saving and carbon reduction

• The issue of global warming has gradually formed a consensus. In order to reduce the impact of production activities on the environment, PDC strives to reduce the consumption of hydropower resources, the amount of raw materials, and the discharge of pollutants per unit of output through the optimization of manufacturing processes. Since 2010, we have started to implement the concept of energy-saving management, organized an energy-saving committee, and set company-wide energy-saving and carbon-reduction development goals, including energy-saving and water-saving projects and tree planting plans in all factories around the world. Regularly review and track the implementation results, supplemented by Relevant publicity activities and education and training to enhance colleagues' awareness of environmental protection.
• In 2011, PDC participated in the Energy Conservation, Carbon Reduction and Water Conservation Program of the Taoyuan City Industrial and Commercial Development Bureau, and professional consultants assisted in introducing various transduction projects to strengthen energy conservation benefits.
• Reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 18% in 2022 compared to 2021.
• In 2022, the old lamps in the factory will be updated, and the T5 & T8 lamps in some areas of the Yangmei & Taoyuan factory will be replaced with LEDs. The annual replacement effect will be 13,200KW/month.
• In addition, a filter press will be built to separate the electroplating sludge and chamfering sludge, and the chamfering sludge will be reused to reduce carbon emissions and impact on the environment. The sludge reuse rate in 2022 will be 22.7%.
• In 2026, increase the lamp replacement efficiency of Yangmei & Taoyuan plant to 15,000KW/month.
• Increase the sludge reuse rate to 25.7% in 2026.
• The 2030 target greenhouse gas emissions will be reduced by 20% compared to 2019.
• Reach carbon neutrality by 2050.
