Sustainability
Climate change
Since 2022, Welhunt has adopted the TCFD framework by the Financial Stability Board to guide disclosures on governance, strategy, risk management, and metrics. Engaging multiple departments, we rigorously assessed climate risks and opportunities, using the findings to set strategic goals and action plans for mitigation and adaptation. These efforts aim to enhance operational resilience and identify new business opportunities, and in May 2023, we became a TCFD supporter.
Environmental Commodities
As global focus on sustainability grows, Welhunt has made supporting clients’ low-carbon transitions a core strategy. We’re committed to low-carbon business models and have entered eco-friendly commodity trade, helping clients meet market demands and environmental goals. We believe these efforts will address climate challenges and unlock green economy opportunities.
Decarbonization
Welhunt mainly engages in international trade. Subsidiaries in Taiwan, China, Singapore, Indonesia, and the UK are all operating in the form of offices without any process and production equipment in place. Therefore, Welhunt’s carbon emission is mainly from electricity used in offices and fuel for company cars. A small amount of natural gas is used in the Kaohsiung employee cafeteria to cook lunches every day and the Taipei employee dormitory’s natural gas stoves and water heaters.
Resource Efficiency
At the beginning of 2024, we conducted an energy inventory for 2023 and found that Welhunt’s electricity, oil, and natural gas usage had all increased.
