One day, Manager Chang of the technology department at a customer tells Mr. Wang of Everlight's technical team about a problem. The PU elastomer, one of that company's products used on the white logos of athletic footwear, cannot pass weathering tests and turn yellow during the tests. The customer ask Everlight for help, but due to trade secret concerns, the customer cannot reveal the formulation. Manager Chang can only tell us that they must use the wavelength of ultraviolet C as the weathering test conditions.

The end of shift bell rings. Tom of the Quality Assurance Department is feeling relaxed and getting ready to leave work. He runs into Jay in the Technical Divsion at the door.

Jay: Wow, are you leaving now? Don't you have to work overtime today? Didn't you always have to work overtime until seven or eight in the evening before you could leave?

Wei: Haha! I am in luck! Since we bought the NIR (Near Infrared Spectrometer), the inspection time for raw materials and products has been greatly reduced. In the past, we needed to wait for an hour before we could see the results of the test. Now we only need to wait fifteen minutes!

Making Character First

Building a Culture of Character in Any Organization

Author ：Tom Hill

The first major company in Taiwan to use Character First was Everlight Chemical Industrial Corporation, the country's dye industry leader. Everlight's founder and Chairman of the Board, Ding-Chuan Chen, had been teaching integrity and character inside his company since founding it in 1972.

Green Accounting

A Pioneer in Green Accounting

Everlight Chemical was the first Taiwan company to establish an environmental cost system. The company put the system in place between August 1998 and November 1999, and it instituted its first amendment of the system in July-September 2000. The environmental cost accounting system now used was amended at the end of 2002. The foremost objective of Everlight Chemical in adopting an environmental accounting system is to conform to Criteria Governing Information to be Published in Annual Reports of Public Companies, which mandates providing environmental protection-related information. The secondary objective is to provide reference information for decision-makers in mapping out corporate strategies and to clearly distinguish environmental costs from ordinary costs. Thirdly, a green accounting system can ultimately help to reduce environmental-related costs and create further benefit for the company.
