Samsung SDI's Environmental Management Policy seeks to minimize negative environmental impacts at all stages of production, mitigate climate change and environmental pollution, and protect ecosystems while preserving biodiversity. This policy ensures compliance with the laws and regulations of each country and incorporates stakeholder requirements and international agreements on climate change and the environment, thereby promoting the sustainable development of the company and its stakeholders.
Samsung SDI regularly monitors and continuously improves its environmental performance based on global standards such as the Environmental Management System(ISO 14001) and Energy Management System(ISO 50001). The company also strives to proactively identify and manage environmental impacts, risks, and opportunities that may arise across all areas of its business operations.
To recognize the severity of climate change and the environmental crisis and join in on the concerted efforts to rise to such challenges, we launched a company-wide environmental management taskforce in January 2022. We also publicly committed to environmentally friendly management to implement strategic tasks for environmental management while joining the RE100 in October 2022. We are undertaking eight strategic tasks under the two overarching themes of ‘action for climate crisis’ and ‘resource circularity’.
| 2 Themes | Action for Climate Crisis | Resource Circulation | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 8 Tasks | 100% Transition to Renewable Energy | Reduce direct GHG emissions | Expand battery recycling | Minimize waste to landfill | Expand the range of carbon labeled products | Shift to zero-emission vehicles for all business vehicles | Reduce water consumption | Minimize the consumption of single-use products |
