[Asia Economy Reporter Suyeon Woo] Hyundai Mobis has been recognized for its proactive response to global international environmental regulations, holding over 1,000 eco-friendly patents and international certifications, and was selected as an 'Excellent Company in Responding to International Environmental Regulations 2020.'
Hyundai Mobis announced on the 22nd that it received the Minister of Trade, Industry and Energy Award at the '2020 Excellent Company in Responding to International Environmental Regulations' ceremony held at the Korea Chamber of Commerce and Industry on the 21st.
Hyundai Mobis holds more than 1,000 certifications related to global eco-friendly vehicles, including 150 global certifications in environment, safety and health, and automotive industry quality management, as well as 778 eco-friendly designs and patents. Additionally, from the product development stage, only raw materials confirmed to be compliant through hazardous chemical component analysis are applied, and pollution factors are blocked during the manufacturing process. Final products also undergo hazardous chemical component inspections to produce eco-friendly products.
Recently, Hyundai Mobis has upgraded its chemical substance management system to actively respond to various hazardous chemical substance regulations implemented in multiple countries. This system standardizes and integrates chemical substance information, allowing real-time tracking of which products use how much of each chemical substance. Based on this, it effectively identifies hazardous chemical substance risk parts that may violate global environmental regulations in advance.
Internally, a dedicated 'Hazardous Chemical Substance Quality Analysis Lab' was newly established to independently analyze hazardous chemical substance risk parts identified in advance. This lab is equipped with a total of 18 types of analytical equipment and can analyze all approximately 12,000 parts managed annually by Hyundai Mobis and its partners.
Hyundai Mobis has been operating a Safety and Environmental Quality Team since 2018 to respond to hazardous chemical substance regulations within products. In 2019, it formed a company-wide TFT to establish a hazardous chemical substance management process and enacted company-wide hazardous chemical substance management standards.
Hyundai Mobis plans to completely filter out hazardous chemical substances through information analysis and verification at all processes from design and raw material receipt stages to final product shipment and customer usage stages to ensure customers’ safe automotive life. Through this, it aims to supply cleaner and safer automotive parts to the global market.
