HOME > Company > Company Introduction > Welcome
I hope that you will have the opportunity to learn about the past, present and the future of HCC. HCC is proud to be responsible for producing PVC, one of the most important plastics, for the first time in Korea in 1966. We also were the first to produce LDPE, LLDPE, and CA, laying the foundation of Korea’s petrochemical industry and helping it to become one of the most advanced in the world.
As a leader in the petrochemical industry, HCC strives to partner in the success of our customers as we value not only the quality of our products, but also the health and safety of people and the environment. To this end, we are committed to maintaining our leadership position and ompetitiveness, focusing on further strengthening our competitiveness in core businesses areas and to developing specialized and products with high added value. We are also committed to developing and supporting new businesses, including those related to environmental and electronic materials.
HCC is structuring itself in order to consistently generate profits when competing internationally by strengthening the competitiveness of our CA, PVC, and PE businesses, which already have a dominant competitive advantage in Korea. We are also working to provide the optimal quality and customized services through our continuing research and development projects, committed to remaining a leader in the petrochemical industry. The company’s sound and stable operation are being further enhanced through business engineering activities designed to promote greater cooperation among employees, increase savings in energy and cost, and to improve productivity and quality by ensuring a healthy corporate culture.
HCC has set a new paradigm and direction for environmental protection and recognizes the central importance of the environment and safety. Based on this, HCC created “ECO-YHES, ” a set of guidelines related to the environment, safety, and quality, and works hard to ensure that its business operates in an ethical manner, upholding the importance of transparency and fairness. Furthermore, to truly become a corporate citizen that is beneficial and responsible in society, employees participate in a wide variety of activities that are aimed at making a contribution to the public. We are committed to becoming a sustainable business through improvements in our performance in each of our three focus areas: core business and new business development, environmental management, ethics management and social contributions.
New businesses are selected and highlighted as next-generation drivers for our business. Our focus is not confined to the technology business; rather we are also directing efforts toward electronic materials for producing ceramic powder using supercritical nano technology, and energy-efficient conductive balls. By investing in new businesses, we are securing stable sources of profit that will remain unaffected by future changes in the petrochemical market. Also, HCC is targeting the global market by strengthening its position in China and expanding its already vast sales network.
Thank you once again for taking the time to visit our website. I hope that the materials here will provide you with a better understanding of the petrochemical industry. I also hope that you will learn more about Hanwha Chemical Company, and our efforts to transform into a major player on the global scene as we lead changes and reforms, pursue innovation, and continue to earn the trust of our customers and of society as a whole.
