We uphold the essence of corporate sustainability and take “energy saving and carbon reduction” “environmental protection” and “green production” as part of our belief in sustainable operations. We are committed to observing relevant environmental protection and energy regulations as well as the requirements of the customers, and will continue to make improvement and prevent pollution in line with the environmental protection policy of the government. To fulfill our commitment to environmental sustainability, iST has passed the certifications of the ISO 45001 Occupational Safety and Health System and the ISO 14001 Environmental Management System since 2019. We continuously conserve resources, prevent pollution, and promote environmental sustainability through the ISO 14001 Environmental Management System.

We have been dedicated to solving the environmental pollution problems related to wastewater and waste for a long time. To implement the environmental policy of “efficient use of resources, prevention of pollution and continuous improvement” we have actively promoted CO2 inventory in recent years in addition to ensuring legal compliance. The environmental protection task is complicated and multi-variant. It involves an interactive relationship of changeable aspects. Thus, for on-site personnel and environmental protection professionals, learning new knowledge of environmental protection through continuous education and training is the only way to improve the effectiveness of the work.
