HTC's primary product lines are palmtop
computers and smart phones. In the
manufacturing processes for those products,
exhaust emissions are only generated by
soldering operations, solid waste is generated
by other relevant operations, and no
wastewater is produced. HTC makes pollution
control of all types a high priority, and to reduce
our environmental impact, continuously
devotes extensive funding to pollution control
facilities and the deployment of dedicated
personnel. The company provides those
personnel with external training to obtain the
relevant certification and assume full
responsibility for all pollution control facilities.
Through training and auditing, normal
operations of all pollution controls are
maintained through appropriate management
designed to steadily diminish our
environmental impact. HTC also engages a
qualified inspection firm to conduct
environmental testing at factories on a regularly
scheduled basis, and to date, all factory
inspections have met government legal
requirements. In addition, HTC has obtained
ISO-14001:2004 environmental management
system certification to effectively manage
pollution issues and achieve "clean
production," our ultimate environmental
protection goal.
