Dongsung Chemical Carries Out Biodiversity Conservation Activities at Hangang Park

Removing Invasive Species
Expanding Commitment to Sustainable Management

Dongsung Chemical carried out biodiversity conservation activities at Ichon Hangang Park in Seoul. Around 70 employees participated, working to preserve native plants by removing invasive species.

Dongsung Chemical announced on September 10 that, as part of its commitment to sustainable management, it recently conducted biodiversity conservation activities in the Ichon Hangang Park area in Seoul. Employees who took part in the initiative removed invasive species such as Sicyos angulatus, Humulus japonicus, and Ambrosia trifida. These plants are considered major invasive species that encroach on the habitats of native plants and threaten the balance of the ecosystem.

Lee Manwoo, CEO of Dongsung Chemical, stated, "We have expanded our biodiversity conservation activities, which were previously conducted in Ulsan and Yeosu, where our main business sites are located, to Seoul. Moving forward, we will fulfill our corporate social responsibility for environmental protection through regular, ongoing activities rather than one-off events."

Dongsung Chemical has also been promoting a culture of resource circulation. In June, the company completely stopped using disposable cups through the 'Zero Waste Campaign' and donated 50,000 biodegradable bags.
