Synergy across the value chain

In our environmental strategy, we've established a value chain with "responsible supply chain," "sustainable operations," and "sustainable products" as the cornerstones. Within this framework, we've devised three key strategic pillars: "supply chain carbon reduction," "climate change resilience," and "low-carbon products." These pillars serve as our compass in identifying climate change risks and opportunities, setting reduction targets, and driving our initiatives.
