Ardentec launches first ESG Award to inspire sustainable good ideas among employees
Ardentec is dedicated to fostering a sustainable corporate culture. In 2024, the company hosted its first ESG Award, encouraging employees to present ideas and projects related to sustainability in the form of a project competition. We hope that these outstanding ideas go beyond mere recognition at the award ceremony. We place equal importance on the potential for practical implementation, giving the best ideas and projects a chance to be realized within the company’s operations.
On July 4, president Chi-Ming Chang personally attended the ESG Award project kickoff meeting, reaffirming the company’s strong commitment to sustainability. He encouraged employees to be creative and actively participate, marking a milestone for Ardentec's first sustainability competition. The ESG Award includes two categories: the "Ardentec Cool Idea Award" and the "Ardentec Excellence Impact Award," covering five major ESG aspects: "Green Manufacturing, Building a Responsible Supply Chain, Creating a Diverse and Inclusive Workplace, Talent Development, and Caring for the Underprivileged." During the final presentation on September 27, 3 projects were selected for the Cool Idea Award ("Turning food waste into fuel, turning poo pee into gold”, “The unification of the cassette and carton”, “Turning stone into gold with cassette - Green delivery bag”), and 3 projects for the Excellence Impact Award (“Well-considered baking: Improving oven loading efficiency”, “AIoT green quality manufacturing”, “PS OVEN improvement in cooling efficiency”). The awards ceremony is scheduled for October.
We firmly believe that when sustainability becomes a part of daily thinking and when the path to sustainable development is clear and tangible, this bottom-up participation will build a solid and unique sustainability culture for Ardentec. Externally, the ESG Award extends our customers' sustainability impact and strengthens Ardentec's role in the supply chain, invigorating the industry's supply chain dynamics and fostering a positive ESG cycle.
