Implementing Local and Green Procurement
SKL helps promote sustainable development in society and the environment through our selection of procurement projects. When purchasing office supplies, information products, air conditioning equipment replacement, and building materials, we prioritize products that have obtained green environmental certification. Since 2016, we have won the "Green Procurement Performance Unit for Private Enterprises and Organizations" from the Department of Environmental Protection, Taipei City Government for eight consecutive years. We also support social innovation enterprises and won the First Prize of Buying Power -Social Innovation Products and Services Procurement Award in 2023.
Initiatives
- Announce the green procurement policy and encourage all units to prioritize products with environmental certifications when applying for equipment or services procurement.
- Actively select products with environmental and energy-saving labels for overall office and administrative equipment, gradually increasing the proportion of environmentally friendly and energy-saving products in procurement.
- Encourage units to collaborate more with innovative social enterprises, or encourage partner units to join relevant matchmaking platforms.
