Climate change significantly impacts the business environment and brings about various changes in human life. ILJI TECH proactively responds to the climate crisis by establishing a climate change response roadmap aimed at achieving carbon neutrality by 2050. Based on this roadmap, the company is specifying and implementing action tasks to realize its goals.
ILJI TECH analyzes the potential risks that climate change poses to the company and establishes response strategies to manage these risks effectively. The company operates a monitoring system for these management activities. It identifies risk and opportunity factors, such as strengthened greenhouse gas emission regulations and the increasing demand for eco-friendly automotive parts, and manages the associated impacts accordingly.
ILJI TECH has been selected for a carbon reduction facility purchase support project aimed at enhancing carbon neutrality in the automotive industry. This initiative is a facility purchase support program implemented by the Automotive Parts Industry Promotion Foundation for automotive parts companies to promote carbon-neutral management. Through this project, ILJI TECH is receiving support for inverter-type air compressors to improve energy efficiency in its operations.
ILJI TECH is participating in the "2024 Supply Chain Component LCA Calculation Support Project" conducted by Hyundai Motor Company to manage environmental impact throughout the life cycle of the automotive industry. Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) quantifies the use of energy and mineral resources, as well as the environmental burden on air, water, and soil, across all processes of a product or system—from raw material extraction, processing, assembly, and transportation to usage and disposal. This assessment aims to identify the potential adverse environmental impacts and evaluate the effects of these burdens on the environment. ILJI TECH is conducting LCA for the components 64200-GI000 and 64300-AA001 PNL ASSY-DASH COMPL that it produces. In 2024, the details of the LCA process and the methodology for determining weight ratios will be used to create a database of carbon emissions for all components of the company’s products, which will be registered in the LCA system "SCEMS." Additionally, the company plans to set targets for reducing carbon emissions through improvements in components and processes in alignment with HKMC’s "Net Zero 2045" initiative.
In response to the era of eco-friendly electric vehicles, ILJI TECH is actively promoting the development of components for environmentally friendly automobiles. The company is engaging in research and development focused on lightweight body structures, electric vehicle components, and changes in materials and manufacturing processes through participation in government projects and independent research. This approach aims to enhance eco-friendliness while strengthening leadership in core technologies.
