Environment First
Prioritize environmental considerations across the full product life cycle

A richer environment for future generations,
with Daechang taking the lead.

Prioritize environmental considerations across the full product life cycle
Continuously improve the ISO 14001 environmental management system
Comply with domestic and global environmental laws and social expectations
Strengthen environmental awareness and education for all employees
Build trust with stakeholders through transparent disclosure
Daechang’s 2035 carbon reduction roadmap
for a more sustainable tomorrow
Digital transformation: real-time integrated energy management through FEMS
Process innovation: remote automated equipment control and replacement with high-efficiency machinery
Operate and continue expanding solar power facilities on idle land such as the headquarters site and parking areas
Use more than 250 monitoring devices for real-time tracking and AI-based demand forecasting optimization
External waste heat utilization: reduce process fuel use by receiving steam from a nearby incineration facility
Energy storage: manage peak electricity demand and reduce cost through ESS deployment
A virtuous manufacturing cycle
that restores value to discarded resources
Condensate recycling: receive discarded steam condensate from nearby companies and reuse it as process water, reducing water use while recovering heat energy
Internal circulation: operate rainwater storage facilities and cooling-water recirculation systems
Continuous improvement: maintain strict control of air and water pollutants through ongoing environmental facility investment
Air: expand dust collection systems and manage emissions below permitted limits
Water and waste: apply wastewater standards stricter than legal requirements and maximize waste recycling rates
Resource circulation: use recycled scrap for more than 85 percent of raw materials
Environmental impact management: complete and expand life cycle assessments across major product lines
Green products: supply human-safe lead-free and low-lead brass, along with brass fishing nets that support marine ecosystems
