Radiant Opto-Electronics Corporation's Sustainable Commitment
Radiant Opto-Electronics' Sustainable strategy aligns with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), global Sustainable trends, and stakeholders' issues of concern. The strategy is promoted and implemented through the Sustainable Development Committee. Radiant Opto-Electronics Corporation has established the "Sustainable Development Committee Organizational Charter ", "Sustainable Development Best Practice Principles ", and "Corporate Governance Best Practice Principles " as guidelines and principles for the Company's sustainable development strategy. The Company collaborates with the Radiant Education Foundation and other related stakeholders to practice sustainable values and proposes three sustainable visions:
▍Mutual Benefit
We uphold our original intention of operating with integrity by establishing a robust enterprise system, focusing on risks and opportunities, and dedicating ourselves to creating the best interests of all stakeholders. We aim to exert positive influence in the supply chain and practice sustainable development by ensuring the implementation of our sustainability policy, disclosing sustainability-related information, and incorporating sustainability into our operations and development direction. Our ultimate goal is to achieve a sustainable vision of "Mutual Benefits" for all.
▍Environmental Symbiosis
We are committed to creating a sustainable environment by continuously developing green products, enhancing energy/resource efficiency, conducting greenhouse gas inventory and certifications, reducing waste and strengthening pollution prevention and control. We use recycled materials with low environmental impact to enable sustainable use of global resources, mitigate the impact of climate change, and strive for a sustainable vision of "environmental symbiosis."
▍Social Prosperity
To create a healthy and safe working environment for employees, we emphasize respect for human rights, compliance with international human rights regulations, gender equality, protection of the right to work, and the prohibition of discrimination. We have also established a comprehensive talent cultivation system and welfare measures, established diverse employee communication channels, and actively engaged in charitable activities to achieve a sustainable vision of "social prosperity."
Radiant Opto-Electronics' Biodiversity and Commitment to Zero Deforestation
Forests are one of the primary carbon sinks on Earth and provide natural habitats for flora and fauna. Radiant Opto-Electronics is further committed to continuously promoting the protection of nature and biodiversity through its products, services, and various activities. The Company begins internally by regulating all operational sites to prevent any acts of deforestation and plans continuously with steps involving avoidance, minimization, restoration, and biodiversity offsets. By implementing Nature-Based Solutions (NBS), Radiant Opto-Electronics is working towards the global goals of No Net Loss and a Net Positive Impact. In addition, Radiant Opto- Electronics will establish a no-deforestation policy and implement a group-level monitoring system to cease any deforestation activities along its value chain, restore degraded forests, and significantly increase global afforestation and reforestation efforts, fulfilling its commitment to zero deforestation. The long-term goals established are aligned with SDG 13 Climate Action and SDG 15 Life on Land.
Development milestones
Radiant Opto-Electronics Corporation was established in July 1995, with its headquarters located in the Kaohsiung Technology Industrial Park in Taiwan. The company is founded on the principles of optical design, independent mold manufacturing, and high-efficiency mass production. Radiant Opto-Electronics' development strategy, known as 'Dual Engine Evolution,' aims to strengthen its core competencies in the design, molding, and manufacturing processes of optical products through two engines "independent enhancement" and "external investment and acquisitions."
In addition to its three major manufacturing bases in mainland China, Radiant Opto-Electronics has, in recent years, completed the acquisition of Finnish optical company Nanocomp, gaining access to molding and imprinting technologies. The company has also acquired Danish optical company "NIL Technology ApS," marking a significant milestone in its entry into the field of meta-optics. In addition, Radiant Opto-Electronics is optimistic about the industry's prospects and, in order to reduce geopolitical risks, has announced plans to establish a new factory in Vietnam and build an advanced technology research and development center in Kaohsiung, to fully prepare for medium- to long-term technology development and equipment.
In the future, Radiant Opto-Electronics will integrate the research and development capabilities of NILT and Nanocomp to develop new applications beyond the backlight and frontlight display markets. This will allow the company to penetrate into new customer bases and niche markets, entering the field of meta-optical components. Targeting five major customer bases"consumer electronics, automotive applications, biomedical diagnostics, augmented reality, and meta- optics," the company will offer meta-optical components such as 3D sensing, AR waveguide lenses, and lenses. Radiant Opto-Electronics continues to serve as an important manufacturing partner for customers in high-end optical solutions, offering one-stop services including design, molding, and mass production.
Radiant Opto-Electronics had a total of 11,812 employees in 2024. The Company places technological innovation at the core of its growth strategy, developing proprietary technologies, fostering intellectual property rights, cultivating key technology research and development teams, and implementing sustainable business practices, gradually emerging as a leader among global optical services.
