In order to reduce waste generation and promote the reuse of available resources, UMC takes environmental friendliness as the main axis, and practices green procurement of equipment and office administrative supplies, in addition to the equipment and semi-finished products that must be used to ensure product quality, we try our best to purchase environmentally friendly products, such as products that have obtained relevant environmental label certification in China and the world, so as to reduce the impact of product manufacturing and enterprise operations on the environment.

Electronically administered, reducing paper consumption

In order to reduce the amount of paper used and improve administrative efficiency, UMC implemented an electronic operating system, continued to digitize the receipt and delivery of electronic documents, electronic forms, and price comparison lists, and saved 31,623 sheets of paper in 2021.
In the office part, we adopted a multi-functional office machine (certification number: ring mark No. 13859) that has obtained the Energy Conservation and Environmental Protection Mark of the Energy Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs, and made good use of the function of the transaction machine, and reduced the use of paper through the following measures.

  1. Standby energy saving is enabled after work, and external faxes are received electronically instead of printed directly
  2. Advocate double-sided printing or multi-page printing in a single sheet, and encourage employees to make good use of recycled paper blank sides for reuse
  3. Documents are not actively printed and other management mechanisms to avoid repeated waste caused by misprinting
  4. Order return is also electronically sent back by digital signature as much as possible
  5. Internal documents between the company and the factory or related enterprises, unified aggregation and transmission, and reuse of briefcases
  6. Transportation by means of transportation to reduce the use of new envelopes and reduce the waste of resources caused by repeated delivery of the same address
  7. The photocopy paper is made of PEFC environmental certification 100% renewable agroforestry pulp
  8. The inner pages of the business diaries printed during the reporting year were printed with soy ink and environmentally certified paper, making a contribution to environmental protection

Waste management

The impact of global climate change on the environment will cause biodiversity loss and affect the survival of diverse species, and for the food industry chain, extreme weather and temperature rise may cause major raw material shortages, resulting in a sharp increase in operating costs.
In order to effectively identify, assess and control climate change risks, UMC has promoted the climate governance mechanism year by year in accordance with the four framework requirements in accordance with the guidelines of the “Proposal for Climate-related Financial Disclosure (TCFD)”, and is committed to reducing carbon emissions by introducing ISO 14064-1 greenhouse gas management system and promoting energy-saving measures, and will follow the TCFD framework to present the management, strategy and implementation results of climate issues in the report and communicate with stakeholders.

Waste management

Although UMC is not a major energy user, we still actively promote energy-saving actions and carry out carbon reduction actions, hoping to gradually improve energy efficiency and contribute to carbon reduction, starting with the introduction of environmental and energy management systems. Lianhua Milling actively promotes energy-saving actions in the factory, continues to replace existing high-energy-consuming motors, upgrades from IE1 to IE3 high-efficiency motors, and strengthens the maintenance and maintenance of equipment transmission components to reduce motor energy consumption.
