by the Hsinchu factory in 2018 can increase the water storage tank and recycle the production water.
The Changpin Factory adds a concentrated water recycling bin to the plant to recover the concentrated
water discharged from the plated pure water equipment, and then supplies it to the washing machine and Green Production Strategy
other equipment to increase the usage rate of the tap water and effectively reduce the water production
in the factory. 2018 The annual wastewater treatment capacity is 52,726 tons, which is a reduction of 16,442
tons of wastewater treatment. TGI Green Production Strategy

In response to the rising global environmental awareness and the adoption of green manufacturing in this
Notesj industry, TGI is committed to improving the efficiency of raw materials use, reducing the environmental costs of
1. Processing capacity: the amount of wastewater flowing to the recycling system. production, and carefully analyzing the energy consumption to assess the greenhouse gas emission intensity, air
2. Recycled Amount: the amount of water used after processed in the recycling system. pollution, waste water and waste, etc. We hope to make progress towards sustainable production and to do
3. Recycle Rate: (Recycled amount Ó processing capacity) Ò 100%. our best for the earth.

Air Pollution Control

Taoyuan Hsinchu Lukang Lukang Flat Changpin compared with 2017; and VOCs and particulate matter were higher than that of 2017. The increase of
Factory Factory Factory Glass Factory Factory particulate matter was because of the regulations have been amended by Environmental Protection
2016 2017 2018 Agency. Since 2018, the particulate matter air pollution fee has been levied, and in addition to the process,
the amount of emissions from transportation, storage, and stacking activities has been included. Therefore,
the emissions of particulate matter in factory plant have increased. We will also work to reduce the emission
of such air pollutants.
