Tapex is always with you.
Tapex recognizes that proactive responses to environmental changes and the safety and health of workers are key elements of sustainable management. Based on this, we have established and run a company-wide environmental management system that can proactively take preventive actions for environmental issues and environmental management activities, and create a safe working environment by thoroughly controlling safety accidents and health risks.
In order to prevent environmental risks and safety accidents that may occur during production process, a risk management system for each sector has been established and operated. We reinforce the inspection activities with the responses to potential emergency and incident prepared and the periodic training on the responses to our members.
We take particle dust and air pollution seriously, and try aggressively to reduce air pollutants with built the optimized prevention facility including RTO (Regenerative Thermal Oxidizer), AC Tower (Activated Carbon Tower) to perfectly treat air pollutants generated at worksites to meet the high social expectations.

In order to respond to the strengthened legal regulations on chemical substances and to prevent environmental incidents such as environmental pollution caused by the use of chemical substances in advance, we make our experts conduct a preliminary review on all chemical substances used in the workplace for safe and proper handling.
