We also combine sustainable ideas with our supplier partners to gradually expand the environmental and social sustainability practices, let more corporate citizens pursue a better society, and implement value chain of “sustainable supply chain” together.
Social Care
All employees in Ardentec headquarters and subsidiaries overseas and in Taiwan find their interest and vision from work, and gradually integrate environmental protection concepts, actions and daily activities. Employees took the family together to serve the community and began to feedback local area. They continued to participate in social welfare activities such as caring of the disadvantaged and education support in various ways. They continued to practice corporate social responsibilities in a concrete manner, and deepened them into the mutual good culture of the Ardentec.
