Business Philosophy and Vision
In 1986, Chairman Pat Chiao founded Helitek in the United States, initiating the silicon wafer business. The founding team comprised members from Silicon Valley and the domestic semiconductor industry, all with extensive experience in the field. This team laid the foundation for Wafer Works' development in silicon wafers and served as the precursor to Wafer Works. In 1997, Wafer Works was officially established in Taiwan. In 2011, the headquarters was set up in the Longtan Science Park. Over more than 20 years of dedicated effort and commitment to the steady growth of its core business, Wafer Works expanded its production bases to six plants in China. Today, the Company is one of the world's top 10 suppliers of semiconductor silicon wafer materials and one of the top three leaders in heavily doped low resistance products. The Company boasts advanced semiconductor silicon wafer manufacturing facilities with a total plant area exceeding 120,000 square meters and nearly 2,200 employees worldwide. In 2007, Wafer Works was recognized by Forbes Asia as one of the "Best Under a Billion" companies in the Asia-Pacific region.
Wafer Works firmly believes that only by establishing trustworthy and cooperative partnerships with customers and suppliers, deeply understanding customer needs, and creating close, flexible collaboration mechanisms with suppliers, can we develop innovative products and services that exceed customer expectations. Adhering to strict operational and sales management, Wafer Works has never been heavily fined for violating laws and regulations in the provision and use of its products and services, nor involved in any legal actions related to anti-competitive behavior, antitrust, or monopolistic practices. Customer-centric and committed to our promises, Wafer Works operates with integrity to create and share a win-win-win scenario for the Company, customers, and suppliers. At the same time, we focus on our employees, recruiting and retaining top talent through our core corporate values. We are committed to creating a safe and inclusive workplace, ensuring that every employee enjoys human rights, skill development, and a safe, friendly work environment, sharing in the Company's success.
With sustainable development as the highest guiding principle, Wafer Works Corporation is committed to progressing toward the goal of becoming a customer-centric semiconductor materials supplier. This is achieved through six key pillars: corporate governance, diversity and inclusion, environmental sustainability, customer service, supply chain management, and social engagement. Through these efforts, the Company continues to deliver greater services and contributions to society, striving for continuous improvement in sustainability. Upholding the concept of corporate sustainability, the Company published its first Corporate Social Responsibility Report in 2012. In recent years, as ecological and environmental issues have gained increasing attention, the scope of subsequent reports has gradually expanded to encompass various aspects of sustainable development and corporate social responsibility. Continuing the spirit of previous reports, this Sustainability Report provides comprehensive information on business strategies, risk management, environmental management systems, and more, offering full transparency to the public and investment partners interested in Wafer Works' development. It reflects the Company's steadfast commitment to fulfilling its social responsibilities and pursuing sustainable growth, while also sharing the outcomes of its sustainable operations.
