Our Mission

Our mission is to build a sustainable business providing value to our customers, partners and stakeholders, while ensuring the integrity of our global supply chain and delivering on our commitment to make a positive impact to the industry, community and environment in which we operate.

Our Approach to Sustainability

Our approach to sustainability is centred on identifying and managing potential environmental impact through initiatives aimed at maximising energy efficiency, effective resource management, and reducing carbon emissions. In addition, we hold ourselves to high levels of corporate governance, adhering to all relevant local and international regulations, standards and guidelines, and putting in place systematic monitoring and risk management to achieve business sustainability.

We devote focus to developing and implementing responsible business practices across our global footprint, and have established systems and processes for continuous improvement in our operations.

In 2012, we centralized the responsibilities under executive sponsorship and launched a cross-functional team to drive major initiatives to reduce UTAC’s carbon footprint. We have been tracking resource use and emissions data since 2012 and have continually improved our tracking methodology to improve data quality for better decision making.

In 2024, we established the UTAC Global Sustainability Office, with support from the senior management team, to implement and manage UTAC’s sustainability strategy, policies and goals.
