Hyundai Steel Launches Eco-Friendly Management Initiative with Partners

Eco-Partnership Certification and Benefits Granted for 3 Years to Two Outstanding Eco-Friendly Partners

[Asia Economy Reporter Yoonju Hwang] Hyundai Steel is expanding the influence of its eco-friendly management by implementing its own eco-friendly certification system, the ECO partnership, for its partner companies.

On the 24th, Hyundai Steel announced that it awarded the ECO partnership certification plaques and signboards to two companies selected as outstanding eco-friendly partners.

The Hyundai Steel ECO partnership is a certification system awarded to excellent partner companies that contribute to eco-friendly management. It has been implemented since last year to participate in government environmental policies and to support the realization of sustainable management by partner companies.

Partner companies selected as ECO partnership certified firms receive certification plaques and signboards, and benefit from additional points during regular evaluations for three years after selection, as well as long-term supply rights.

This year, the companies selected as outstanding eco-friendly partners are ‘Hyojun Precision’ and ‘KC Cottrell’. These companies received excellent evaluations for proposals that not only reduce pollutant emissions but also consider increasing product usage value through energy savings, improved equipment efficiency, and durability.

Hyojun Precision proposed an improved piping connection method to prevent cooling water leakage at its special steel casting plant. Applying this method can save water resources. KC Cottrell proposed an operational method improvement idea to enhance the efficiency of the sintered exhaust gas dust collection facility. The proposals from both companies have completed improvement works and are currently being applied in the process. This is the result of cooperation to ensure that excellent ideas do not end at the proposal stage but lead to actual effects.

Meanwhile, Hyundai Steel operates various win-win cooperation programs such as technology fairs and the ECO partnership to help partner companies grow in various areas including expanding domestic production of parts, discovering excellent technologies, and improving eco-friendly processes.
