Asia Cement Wins 2026 AREA Social Empowerment Award and Silver Emblem of Sustainability
Asia Cement Corporation has won the 2026 Asia Responsible Enterprise Award in the Social Empowerment category and received the Silver Emblem of Sustainability for its long-term community engagement with Indigenous tribes in Hualien County, Taiwan. The award recognizes the company's 'Co-Governance Plan with Tribes and Communities' initiative, which fosters partnerships through dialogue, cultural preservation, and disaster preparedness. In 2025, ACC invested NT$15.52 million via its benefit-sharing mechanism to support local education and cultural programs, including after-school tutoring for 409 children and Truku-language education. The company also highlighted the Taroko Mountain Market, now independently managed by tribal residents, which has generated over NT$1.1 million in cumulative sales. ACC has earned AREA recognition for eight consecutive years across multiple sustainability categories.
