ISO14001 (Environmental Management System) Certifications at DRB Corporations

DRB has acquired the ISO certification based on its environmental management system that meets the international standards, and has set the minimization of negative environmental impact as its corporate management policy. Under this policy, DRB has specified the detailed objectives and composed the implementation organization, plan, duties, procedure, and resources, and thereby inputs and manages the management resources efficiently and systematically.

Environmental Impact Assessment

DRB identifies, from the aspect of green management, both the actual and potential environmental impacts of its business activities related to production, products and services, registers identified issues on its system, and improves/manages them in accordance with the degree of importance.

Environmental Laws and Policy Management

DRB learns about various environmental regulations and requirements made at the domestic, international, local government levels as quickly as possible, and has its members to comply with such through information distribution and education. Also, DRB makes a standard to assess the members’ compliance, and applies and monitors the results to the green management system, on a regular basis.

Environmental Permits and License

In the case of new and/or expansion of existing discharge and prevention installations, DRB takes the due process of examination, inspection, and review prescribed by applicable laws under relevant governmental bodies, public agencies, or civil organizations, and thus strives for stable operation of the installations.

Green Management Compliance Evaluation

DRB establishes a green management evaluation system based on its own internal standards which are the same as or even stricter than the legal requirements and performs the evaluation thereby. The Company monitors the environmental performance index every year, sets out and manages the environmental performance goals, and carries out green management activities in accordance with the plan. Since 2019, the Company has expanded the evaluation management range to its overseas business places and monitors the entire group.

Management of Change

Management of change is applied to not only the changes of raw and supplementary materials, including chemicals required to the production of all products, installations, process design, and operation conditions, but also the changes of pollutant discharging installations and their external impacts, process safety management (PSM), and any applicable regulations. DRB examines the changes thoroughly and in a timely manner to evaluate the suitability and validation, and prevents risks which can be caused by the change through the reporting duties and education.

Environmental Safety Emergency Response

DRB creates various types of safety accident scenarios, such as leakage or spillage of waste water, oil, harmful materials or untreated gases due to malfunction of processing facilities, natural disasters of earthquake, storms, and heavy rains, and fire accidents and different physical damages, and establishes a environment and safety emergency system for fast response to any emergencies. In addition, DRB provides the members with a variety of regular and special safety educations including private-public joint fire drills and dangerous chemical treatment education, to minimize human, material and environmental damages through swift response measures, and strives to ensure all members to familiarize themselves with the emergency response manuals. DRB also prepares restoration measures for different emergency situations and thus pursues rapid normalization after the accident.

Environmental Management Audit

DRB proactively reflects the government’s environmental policy on its business, and improves its own green management system through a thorough examination of ESH regulations. Moreover, DRB actively participates in the audit and inspection of stakeholders, such as central and local governments and civil groups, and strives to minimize environmental impacts through internal standards that are the same as or stricter than legal standards and requirements. Through internal audit and immediate corrective measures for any issues identified, DRB strengthens the green management system and ensures continuous improvement and implementation of the system by evaluating and monitoring the system performance, risk elimination, and improvement degree under the leadership of the Environmental Management Committee.

Environmental Management System by Sector

Waste Management

DRB establishes the monthly waste disposal plan in each year and estimates the waste amount in the case of new and expanded facility installation. DRB also researches and applies various methods to reduce waste generation, such as improvement of process, raw materials, and wrapping materials. In addition, the Company is raising the ratio of waste recycling outsourcing to increase recycling use, and performs the legal reporting requirement about waste treatment by using All-Baro System of the Korea Environment Corporation.

Soil Environment Management

To prevent soil contamination on the premises, DRB performs not only legally mandatory but also voluntary internal soil contamination tests. In particular, we comply with the Soil Environment Conservation Act, carry out the legal tests regularly and maintain the results on a long-time basis. In addition, we inspect the factors that may cause the leakage of waste oil and chemicals, and other soil contamination, internally as often as possible to keep our soil environment safe and clean.

Water Quality Management

To minimize the impacts on the rivers and oceans, DRB runs an effective waste water treatment facility which uses physical, chemical, and biological techniques to eliminate pollutants. We also install an automatic water quality measurement system to monitor the water quality remotely.

Air Quality Management

DRB improves the waste disposal and discharge facility and uses alternative clean energies to reduce air pollutants and greenhouse gas emissions. In addition, to manage and reduce the emissions of air pollutants and greenhouse gases, the Company applies internal emission standards that are stricter than the legal limit, and establishes and implements various emission reduction plans in all business sectors.

Chemicals Management

DRB prevents chemicals-related accidents by eliminating harmful and dangerous elements in the entire course of chemical usage, namely from the adoption and application to sales and disposal of chemicals, from the perspective of ESH management. The Company also complies with the harmful chemical treatment standards under the Chemical Substances Control Act and runs a chemicals treatment facility that meets the legal requirements. In addition, the Company creates chemical accident scenarios and estimate the impact range based on the external impact assessment and the risk management plan, and carries out an emergency drill at least once a year to grow emergency response and rescue capability.
