Renowned for its production of high-quality long-length screws, Shuenn Chang Fa Enterprise Co., Ltd. (SCF) has been actively addressing a critical issue: CDP-Climate Change. Since 2015, SCF has been assisting customers with their participation in the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) focused on Climate Change. In 2022, SCF initiated Carbon Footprint Verification (CFV) with the support of government-designated tutoring units for both scope 1 and scope 2 emissions and acquired ISO 14064-1 in the end of 2023.

Moreover, from 2019 to 2023, SCF saved 226,379 kWh, reducing emissions by 113.606 Ton·CO2e. Initially generating about 2,300-2,800 Ton·CO2e per year, SCF set a goal to reduce power consumption by 1% annually. This was achieved by transitioning forklifts from diesel to electric, utilizing solar power, and implementing waste recycling. SCF’s commitment to ESG principles allowed them to apply for ISO 14064-1, positioning the company as one of the leading ESG factories in Taiwan. They are now working on ESG compliance that aligns with GRI rules.
