ESG is an Integral Part of our Corporate Strategy
ASMPT has been growing steadily since 1975. While we enjoy healthy growth, we also continually improve on our operating efficiency and resource stewardship as we strive towards building a sustainable future that will create long-lasting value for our business, stakeholders, community and the environment.
We firmly believe that a successful business must be conducted in an environmentally and socially responsible as well as ethical manner, giving back to the communities where it operates. Hence we are committed to ensuring that our employees are protected and respected, our businesses align with ethical standards, our working environment is safe and healthy, and our responsiveness to the needs of the community.
ESG significantly influences ASMPT’s culture, human resources policies, business strategies and workflows. Business success and social responsibility have long been inseparably linked in our company. Moreover, as the world’s leading provider of comprehensive solutions for semiconductor and electronics manufacturing, we are committed to actively advancing ESG. After all, we owe our success not only to technical innovations and profits but also to our commitment to creating a positive and sustainable future for all our stakeholders. We summarize this under the motto “shaping a bright and sustainable future for customers, employees, investors, partners and society”, which instructs us to pursue a detailed agenda – for the entire Group, all business units and regions and for the goals of each individual employee at ASMPT.
Why is ESG firmly anchored in ASMPT's corporate strategy and what aspects contribute to the company's success?
"ESG and sustainability are no longer just nice-to-have initiatives but are critical and must-haves for leaders and true pioneers in any industry."
