Management Guidelines
As a pharmaceutical company enhancing the quality of human lives, TTY is aware that human being's health greatly relies on good environment, including clean air, water, and proper handling of waste. Therefore, TTY holds "environmental sustainability is the first priority of all operations" as the guideline for environmental protection management. All suppliers are requested to follow TTY's supplier management policies and continuously optimize processes to save energy and reduce the impact of operations on climate change.
Greenhouse gases are the main driver of global warming and climate change. TTY introduced ISO 14064-1 GHG Inventory Standards in year 2022, and passed with Independent Assurance Opinion issued by the 3rd-party, DNV Business Assurance, at the end of May, 2023, which will form the basis of our management guidelines and regulations for all energy-saving and carbon reduction measures to improve the energy efficiency of all operation locations.
GHG is the main culprit to climate change, therefore, TTY proactively disclose transparent information on air emissions. In 2023, 2 major manufacturing sites Lioudu factory and Chungli factory had reduced 339,488.86 kWh of electricity saving and 168.05 tonCO2e via 11 electricity saving measures. It is expected to implement 11 electricity saving measures in 2024, which may decrease 447,039.62 kWh of power and reduced 221.28 tonCO2e. We observed an additional 7,175,085 MJ increase, representing a 10.11% rise in consumption in 2023 compared to the previous year. This increase was due to the production of lyophilized products at the Lioudu B1 factory, and the continuous operation of a temperature-humidity fixed clean room for powder and injection production at the B3 factory.
In order moderate the impact caused by process to environment, all effluent is within the Water Pollution Prevention Act, local governance laws and sewage treatment plant “incoming water quality standards” in industrial zone. TTY assures that the quality of effluent not only meet requirements of relevant laws and regulations, but also better than sewer connection standards through installation of pre-sewage treatment facilities. Audit waste clearance contractors weekly and monthly assuring no violation of “Waste Clearance Act” or major pollution event and without causing impact to local environment, in order to fulfill the obligations and responsibilities of corporate citizenship.
Environmental Goal
In compliance with the relevant environmental law and international guidelines, TTY takes the initiative when it comes to environmental conservation and has worked with every possibility to minimize ecological impact in the manufacturing process. In year 2023, there was no significant fine for the violation of related laws; besides, all activities and business including operation and interior management of all TTY departments and sites should be conducted to fulfill sustainable environmental goals. Dedicated EM departments or personnel are to designate, facilitate and maintain EM systems and action plans such as proper water consumption, recycling, and related measures to enhance water usage efficiency. Meanwhile, monitor the climate changes’ impact on operational activities, policies and strategies were promoted to decrease carbon footprints and GHG emissions.
For our work crew, periodical environmental education focuses on the idea of being a sustainable consumer and going for the following 5 targets to build a good corporate constitution in environmental friendliness.
