Hon Hai Technology Group (Foxconn) Commits To New 5-Year Sustainability Roadmap Through 2030
3 March 2026, Taipei, Taiwan – Hon Hai Technology Group (“Foxconn”) (TWSE:2317)
today announced ambitious sustainability targets through 2030 that focus the next five years on clean energy, labor rights, supply chain
ESG and global initiatives for the
world’s largest electronics manufacturer and leading technological solutions
provider.
Stepping up sustainability as
the Group’s core driver of long-term competitiveness and operational
resilience, the 2026–2030 Long-Term Sustainability Goals, benchmarked against
2025 levels, comprise of 34 concrete actions across 21 strategic categories. The
updated roadmap responds to evolving global ESG expectations and offers a
broader value chain impact.
“This roadmap marks Foxconn’s
transition into a new phase defined by data transparency, institutionalized
targets, and collaborative partnerships,” said James Wu, Foxconn Spokesperson
and a lead for the Group’s Sustainability Committee. “With hundreds of campuses around the world
and tens of thousands of suppliers, we are taking steady, measurable steps to
bring up our ecosystem to be being cleaner, greener and smarter.”
By 2030, the
entire group aims to achieve multiple environment targets, including a 30%
greywater recycling rate; a 75% share of renewable energy use; self-invested
green electricity accounting for more than 30% of the group's renewable energy
usage; and a 10% reduction in energy intensity.
Foxconn, for
the most part, reached its previous set of 32 long-term ESG goals issued in 2022 ahead
of schedule, putting it on track to achieve its 2050 net zero emission target,
while fulfulling social and governance commitments, including enhancing
workplace wellness, improving sustainable supply chains and strengthening
cybersecurity and board accountability.
Looking ahead, AI will be embedded
in sustainable technology innovation goals, such as doubling the number of Foxconn’s
Lighthouse-standard factories and exponentially discovering IP-worthy
applications to share with the industry.
For the first time, the Group
will coordinate its corporate policies and supplier standards with 15 major
international frameworks, including TCFD, SASB, and IFRS S1/S2. The company is
committed to maintaining a top 10% ranking across five leading ESG rating
agencies, including MSCI and Sustainalytics.
In bringing
up the supply chain, the new goals include initiating a 100% sustainability
audit of Foxconn’s Tier-1 suppliers and promoting "short-chain, low-carbon
manufacturing," aiming for over 80% local sourcing of institutional
materials to strengthen operational resilience in global regional economies.
The health and safety of employees is a top priority for Foxconn.
In this key area, goals require 100% coverage of human rights risk assessments at
global production sites by 2030. For high-risk issues identified during assessments,
remedial and mitigation measures will be implemented immediately. The company
will continuously strengthen internal management and labor dispatch practices,
and systematically promote annual audits to ensure compliance with the Group's
Code of Conduct and accountability standards. Global high-risk contractors will
all need to meet ISO 45001 Occupational Health and Safety Management System certification.
In another
first, Foxconn is incorporating Nature-based Solutions (NbS) in its
sustainability initiatives. With partners, the Group will organize environmental and ecological restoration actions
annually in our major production regions through 2030, reaching a global yearly
total of 80,000 cumulative volunteer hours.
