Since 2002, E Ink's global sites have progressively obtained international environmental management system certifications and established systematic management procedures. Through the Plan, Do, Check, Act (PDCA) cycle mechanism, the Company continuously improves in areas such as environmental protection, climate change, safety and health, and energy management.
To enhance environmental management across its global production sites and offices, E Ink plans to establish systems aligned with ISO 14001, ISO 50001, and ISO 14064-1 standards, aiming to obtain external certification or verification by 2030. Notably, 100% of E Ink’s global production sites have been successfully certified under ISO 14001, a significant milestone in the Company’s commitment to international environmental management standards.
Note 1: By 2025, the scope will cover E Ink's four global production sites, including the Hsinchu and Linkou sites in Taiwan, the Yangzhou sites, and the South Hadley site in the US. After 2026, E Ink plans to increase the number of operational production sites from four to five.

In addition, both the Hsinchu and Yangzhou sites have obtained the Verification Statement of Greenhouse Gas Assertions through ISO 14064-1 GHG inventory and external verifications since 2005. Although our Linkou Site is not an EPA-required GHG inventory site, it implemented voluntary GHG inventory and external verifications to review the effectiveness of in-house energy conservation and emission reduction and use it as a basis for future progress.
E Ink has established the "E Ink Policy on Safety, Health, Environment, and Energy Management", committing proactively to formulating strategies, management objectives, and quantitative performance indicators for sustainability issues such as occupational safety and health, environmental protection, climate change, water resources, waste management, and energy consumption. The policy is applicable to E Ink’s entire operations, employees, contractors or individuals under the Company’s supervision. By implementing appropriate management systems, methodologies, and tools, these sustainability issues are properly managed, effectively executed, and integrated into daily operations and production processes to achieve key goals, including clean production and waste reduction, climate change mitigation and adaptation, safe operations and worker health, as well as energy saving and creation. Additionally, E Ink requires all workplace worker (including employees and contract workers), suppliers, contractors, partners, and relevant external stakeholders to comply with the regulations. The Company also regularly discloses environmental, safety, health, and energy management performance to engage with both internal and external stakeholders.
