LOTTE Energy Materials (CEO Kim Yeon-Seop) is working to obtain ‘Copper Mark’ certification, the responsible sourcing program established by the International Copper Association (ICA). Through this certification, the Company aims to enhance its credibility as a battery materials supplier and solidify its business relationships with global customers. 

Established in 2019, ‘Copper Mark’ is the only global ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) certification for the copper industry. It is awarded to companies that protect the environment and human rights while ensuring ethical management and local community engagement across the entire supply chain—from ore extraction to product manufacturing and sales. 

LOTTE Energy Materials’ Malaysia plant, which has been operating a copper foil production facility since 2019, has gained positive recognition from global customers emphasizing ESG management, particularly due to its use of hydropower, a renewable energy source. 

CEO Kim Yeon-seop states, “To enhance the global competitiveness of our company and clients, we are committed to achieving sustainable management with a responsible supply chain and transition to eco-friendly energy.” He added, “All employees will strive for a higher level of management than global standards to achieve a sustainable business and solidify our position as a leading battery materials supplier.”

To proactively promote sustainability, ESG requirements, and international standards, LOTTE Energy Materials established an ESG Committee in 2023. The committee facilitates strategic decision-making on key issues such as climate action, human rights, and global supply chains, ensuring an efficient response system.
