Environmental, safety, health and energy policy
To realize CPT's CSR commitment to continued improvement in environmental safety and health management, conform to domestic and foreign legislation on pollution prevention and control as well as improve environmental safety and health management performance, CPT is committed to green design, green production and the creation of a healthy and sustainable working environment. In September 2011, CPT’s Taoyuan plant first began implementing energy management system ISO50001 and ISO14001 environmental management system to act as integrating energy and environmental protection systems. The original environmental protection policy is amended into the environmental protection and energy policy. Energy conservation and carbon reduction is conducted through systematic management models to delve into manufacturing processes to discover potential for energy efficiency improvements.
Green commitment
Since 2010, CPT had been running Project 335 in terms of the manufacturing procedures in its Taiwanese plants. Using 2008 as the base year, CPT’s voluntary 5-year plan, ending in 2014, calls for: 30% energy reduction in products, 30% packaging weight reduction per unit area, and 25% water reduction per unit area of production. Achievement of Targets Ahead of Schedule CPT’s 335 targets in 2010 were: 5% energy conservation for products, 5% packaging weight reduction per unit area, and 5% water reduction per unit area during the production process. Because energy conservation results in 2010 exceeded expectations, slight adjustments were made in 2011 resulting in: 30% energy conservation for products, 10% packaging weight reduction per unit area, and 10% water reduction per unit area during the production process.  In 2012, the packaging weight reduction targets per unit area assigned by the 335 project are as follows: 16% for the Medium to Small Size Department, 25% for the Large Size Department, and 15% for water reduction per unit area of production. We hope to continue promoting resource efficiency and achieve new records. In 2011, CPT once again passed examination from the committee over its standards during the“Energy Conservation and Carbon Reduction Action Awards,â€� and was distinguished as an outstanding unit in the corporate group of the northern region.
Defining of energy conservation and carbon reduction targets
To fulfill our green commitment, green activities were included as one of the key company tasks for 2010 with a 22% carbon reduction by 2012 defined as the target. By working with upstream and downstream companies, we will work together to create green products. By becoming a green enterprise we will ensure the profitability of the company and realize the goal of symbiotic co-existence with the environment in the future. This target was achieved at the end of 2011, where the company achieved an overall 23% in carbon reduction, further proving Green Management Committee’s success in introducing green concepts into corporate business strategies and turning such concepts into real action that is gradually taking root and strengthening within all departments. CPT continues to move towards becoming a green corporation. In 2012, CPT introduced the concepts of “CPT Low Carbon Sustainable Development Plan,� which utilizes the concepts of “green actions = innovations = commercial opportunities = sustainable development� to introduce green strategies into all aspects of the company’s operations.
