Leading by Example
Being the premium brand within our industry we aim to lead by example, demonstrating how innovative technologies and sustainable practices can be seamlessly integrated into both operational workflows and product development life cycles.
By doing so, we are actively reducing our group’s carbon footprint, conserving resources and fostering a culture of environmental responsibility.
How we do it
- Implemented a multifaceted climate action strategy.
- Invested in state-of-the-art facilities to minimize waste and maximize energy efficiency.
- Increased use of renewable energy sources in operations.
- Ongoing exploration of mitigation measures to reduce climate change impact.
- Founding Member of the Semiconductor Climate Consortium (SCC) and leader of the SCC Scope 2 Emissions Working Group focused on low-carbon energy adoption throughout the semiconductor value chain.
- Commitment to net-zero emissions in 2035 for scope 1 and 2 >> more
- Defining our scope 3 emissions baseline and developing reduction strategies, starting with a comprehensive group-wide measurement.
We firmly believe that we must play a leading role in the fight against climate change – both as a company and as individuals. In order to achieve a CO2-free footprint as quickly as possible, we decided some time ago to switch to renewable power and to save energy in all parts of the company, where possible.
ASMPT Materiality Mix with an Environmental Focus
ASMPT has assessed and prioritised potential ESG issues that could impact ASMPT's business and/or are material to stakeholders.
The resulting ASMPT Materiality Mix represents our combination of ESG issues that we consider material.
Our ESG strategy considers the issues that are most important to us and that are aligned with ASMPT's business targets and the expectations of all our stakeholders.
This is important for effectively allocating resources, setting targets and disclosing ESG-related information to stakeholders such as investors, customers, employees and regulators.
ASMPT is firmly committed to achieving net-zero emissions for both scope 1 and scope 2 by 2035, reflecting our aggressiveness in sustainability.
Industry Collaboration
We are certain: the path to net zero is a collaborative undertaking. In a combined effort, the entire electronics industry must contribute its share to meeting the global climate targets. Together we are strong and can have an impact. That is why we are a “leadership level” founding member of the Semiconductor Climate Consortium (SCC). The SCC develops joint strategies and processes to continuously improve and reduce greenhouse gas emissions in member company operations and throughout the semiconductor value chain, supporting the Paris Agreement and related accords driving the 1.5°C pathway. Through the collaboration of member companies, the SCC can address and solve issues no one company can do alone.
As leader of the SCC Scope 2 Emissions Working Group focused on low-carbon energy adoption throughout the semiconductor value chain, we are helping to develop a shared roadmap to enable low-carbon energy systems and help the value chain access and adopt these systems, to achieve net zero scope 2 by 2050 or sooner. This is a critical component of ASMPT’s scope 3 emissions reduction strategy, by working to increase our suppliers’ and customers’ usage of low-carbon energy.
ASMPT’s Environmental Management System
ASMPT has a robust environmental management system in place at our key locations worldwide that complies with relevant local and international standards such as ISO 14001 and ISO 50001.
In addition, we have established a global net zero team responsible for implementing our ambitious targets in all segments and departments in order to realize our ESG and thus also our net zero targets in a focused and company-wide step-by-step process.

Global
ASMPT ESG / Net Zero Ambassadors
Reducing the carbon footprint affects us all, it is a joint effort. To raise awareness and initiate joint projects, ASMPT has ESG/net zero ambassadors worldwide. They actively promote the topic of environmental protection and energy saving. One good example: the ASMPT China Intelligent Manufacturing Centre team with its environmental protection and energy saving ambassador programme. Here, net zero ambassadors from various departments were trained on topics such as "carbon emissions and climate change", "environmental protection and energy saving" and "carbon verification". In cooperation with the ASMPT ESG Coalition, they initiate new projects and share their knowledge with the entire ASMPT team.
