Regional headquarters company introduction
Sun Chemical’s Activities
Collaborating and cooperating with colleagues to make progress toward addressing climate change and social imperatives
Sun Chemical’s actions in sustainability also allow for furthering the idea of “One Company” throughout the DIC Group. Sharing ideas across regions and collaborating on projects are a way to highlight the commitment to global sustainability and local diversity. Through this approach, both Sun Chemical and the overall DIC Group are stronger as an organization.
DIC Asia Pacific’s Activities
Leading the market by becoming a one-stop provider of products and services based on the concept of sustainability
The Asia–Pacific region is highly competitive, and customers here are primarily concerned with prices. As a result, sustainability goals have been put on the back burner. However, at DIC Asia Pacific, we see this as an opportunity to expand our operations and believe that improving our range of sustainable products and services and deepening our consulting activities, technical services and solutions will increase our competitiveness and add value to our products.
DIC (China)’s Activities
Charting dramatic progress by focusing on R&D capabilities and sustainability strategies
As part of its sustainability strategy for Greater China, DIC (China) is encouraging companies in the region to promote various initiatives aimed at achieving carbon neutrality. Nantong DIC Color Co., Ltd., for example, achieved odor-free production by expanding its facilities and improving related processes. In another example, Hainan DIC Microalgae Co., Ltd., as the result of constructing a rainproof cover that shields 20% of the area of its algae cultivation facility, had as of October 2022 succeeded in reducing its annual total discharge of wastewater by 40,901 m3, an achievement that has not only reduced costs but also protects the environment. In line with the basic policy of DIC Vision 2030, DIC (China) and the companies of the DIC Group in the PRC will continue to fortify their R&D efforts to accommodate the needs of domestic customers, devoting their utmost efforts to responding effectively and providing ever-greater value while at the same time striving to contribute to sustainability for our customers and society at large. We will also work closely with our colleagues in the Asia–Pacific region, Europe and the Americas, and at corporate headquarters in Japan, to support the stable and sustainable evolution of the global DIC Group as “One Company.”
