Sustainability

ESG is an integral part of ASMPT SMT Solutions’ corporate strategy

At ASMPT SMT Solutions, sustainability and Environmental, Social & Governance (ESG) are firmly embedded in our operations and innovations.

We are committed to achieving net-zero Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2035. Our near-term Scope 3 emission reduction targets have been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), reinforcing our commitment to credible, science-based climate action.

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.

Our sustainability framework

Our sustainability framework has been built on four pillars. They are precisely aligned with our strict governance requirements and form the cornerstones of our sustainability strategy.

Minimizing Environmental Impact

We believe it is our responsibility to conduct our activities responsibly with minimum impact on the environment.

  • We comply with local and international laws and regulations to control greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, water and land discharges and waste generation.
  • We monitor and manage operational resources, including energy, water and raw materials.
  • We endeavor to achieve our net-zero target for Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2035.
  • We commit to the near-term emission reduction targets validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), to reduce 37.5% of our targeted Scope 3 emissions categories by 2035 compared to the 2021 baseline year.
  • We do not support any climate-denial or lobby against climate regulations.
  • We actively engage stakeholders through capacity-building initiatives on environmental issues to foster collaborative decarbonization efforts.

Our journey to carbon neutrality

Our commitment: net-zero for Scope 1 and Scope 2 by 2035

With a focus on making an active contribution to the Paris climate targets, we have set ourselves the goal of “Net-Zero 2035” for direct emissions from our own sources (scope 1) and for indirect emissions, especially from purchased energy (scope 2). By setting this ambitious timeline, we are accelerating our efforts in carbon reduction. 

Along this path, we are working towards an interim milestone of around 50% reduction by 2030, while addressing Scope 3 emissions across our value chain.
