Since the launch of the Green Action Plan in 2009, GIGABYTE has been devoted to building employeesʼ environmental awareness in their work and life through a comprehensive and pragmatic approach. Environmental protection and sustainability should not be lofty topics but rather a kind of habit practiced every day. As for environmental performance management, GIGABYTE plans a clear long-term goal and adopts active reduction measures based on a short-term target, “333 Reduction”, aiming to reduce carbon, water, and waste by 3% per year.

The environmental performances are disclosed as below. For emissions and energy-related performance, the data boundary covers GIGABYTEʼs operation headquarters (including subsidiary Giga Computing), Taoyuan Nanping Factory, Dongguan and Ningbo Factories in mainland China, as well as the Taipei Silicon Valley Park Offices, where GIGABYTEʼs subsidiaries G-Style, Bestyield International, Cloudmatrix, and sub-subsidiary GIGAIPC are located. This coverage accounts for approximately 89.56% of the Groupʼs consolidated revenue in 2025. For water and waste performance, the data boundary covers GIGABYTEʼs headquarters building, Taoyuan Nanping Factory, Dongguan and Ningbo Factories in mainland China. The revenue from these sites in 2025 accounted for 88.94% of the Groupʼs consolidated revenue.

Reduction Performance of GHG Emissions, Water, and Waste in 2025

Due to continued business growth, greenhouse gas emissions, water consumption, and operational waste for 2025 increased slightly compared to the previous year. However, the company did not meet its short-term and mid-to-long-term waste reduction targets. The main reason was a shift in market demand that led to an increase in server orders, resulting in higher production volumes and waste generation. Nevertheless, GIGABYTE continues to implement waste recycling and reduction initiatives. As a result, the amount of waste generated per NT$1 million in revenue decreased compared to both the previous year and the baseline year. The company will continue to review its reduction targets, promote internal waste reduction programs, and optimize resource utilization and recycling mechanisms to steadily progress toward its waste reduction goals.

GIGABYTE complies with local regulations to properly manage operational waste, including household waste, recyclable waste, and hazardous industrial waste, and entrusts qualified contractors with collection and final disposal. All waste is tracked and reported through weight verification and proper disposal certificates to ensure transparency and traceability of information. In addition, the Company conducts regular vendor audits to strengthen compliance management and environmental risk control in waste disposal.

Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) are one of the primary sources of poor air quality. GIGABYTEʼs air pollution control measures comply with regulatory standards in Taiwan and China. Furthermore, as our factories primarily utilize low-pollution assembly processes, there are no emissions of NOx, SOx, or PFCs. Due to the nature of their manufacturing processes, GIGABYTEʼs facilities in China have installed dedicated equipment for paint waste treatment and electronic waste disposal to effectively address xylene and non-methane hydrocarbon emissions. VOC emissions are monitored regularly; the combined monitoring data for both facilities totaled 0.968 metric tons, which complies with regulatory standards and represents a 23.36 % decrease compared to the previous year.

Over the past decade, the Green Action Plan has delivered a variety of services: knowledge-oriented activities such as seminars, workshops, and newcomer training; experience-oriented activities such as working holidays, a green volunteering club, drawing and photography contests; custom-oriented measures like vegetarian food promotion, waste reduction – which have effectively promoted employees to develop more sustainable lifestyles and cultivate their environmental protection concepts; call on suppliers of “Reduction. Sharing. Love the Earth” Alliance to join the “333 Reduction Plan” and environmental protection activities to guard the planet together.

Besides the internal environmental education, the G-HOME GIGABYTE Sustainable Eco-Roof, founded in 2013, also promotes the benefits of rooftop greening by opening it to external visitors. Between 2017 and 2022, G-HOME received the Environmental Education Facility and Field Certification from the Environmental Protection Administration. The two certificated environmental education courses, Rooftop Greening is not A Dream and The World is a Circle, are developed to promote the concepts of sustainability, co-prosperity, and zero waste to the public, industries, government, and academia. Moreover, we look forward to seeing more sustainable eco-roofs being constructed to make Taiwan greener and healthier.
