This report quantifies goals and performance by linking the three main strategic directions?corporate responsibility for the environment, respect for people, and earning trust as a company?with KPIs and related detailed action plans. Through this approach, the company aims to continuously monitor the status of implementation and manage performance in a systematic and transparent manner.

The report also discloses achievements in developing innovative products to secure future growth engines. It introduces major products that KCC Glass is developing by integrating advanced technologies to meet new market demands, such as automotive glass with transparent antennas, smart glass with adjustable transparency, and glass substrates for semiconductor packaging.
