In alignment with Taiwan’s Green and Sustainable Remediation (GSR) initiative, CPC has integrated green practices in site remediation since 2008. In collaboration with Apollo, they have launched remediation projects at key sites, such as the Hsinchu and Taichung Oil Distribution Centers. Apollo’s advanced soil and groundwater remediation techniques aim to restore ecological balance and ensure the sites’ long-term sustainability, benefiting both local communities and natural habitats.
Apollo’s expertise in sustainable remediation has already delivered substantial results. At the Hsinchu Oil Distribution Centre, the company successfully treated over 43,200 tonnes of oil-contaminated soil and reduced 848 tonnes of carbon emissions through bioremediation and in-situ groundwater systems. Their work enables CPC to identify high-priority remediation sites and apply innovative solutions like phytoremediation, which uses specific plants to extract pollutants from soil and groundwater.
This award reflects CPC Corporation, Taiwan, and Apollo Technology’s unwavering commitment to environmental stewardship and sustainable industrial practices. The Top Green Companies is awarded to companies that run their business operations yielding minimal negative impact on the environment, community, and society. The ACES Awards celebrate companies that excel in driving growth and community contribution while maintaining high ethical standards. With Veolia’s support, Apollo continues to enhance its resources and expertise, underscoring a shared vision of eco-transformation in Taiwan’s industrial sector. Together, these companies are setting new standards for green innovation in Asia, creating pathways toward a resilient, sustainable future.
