ENVIRONMENTAL EFFORTS
Environmental sustainability is an issue businesses
must consider and we do our utmost to ensure that
our operations do not harm the environment.
Our core product, steel, is very environmentally
friendly and its great durability enables it to be
reused. Steel can also be 100% recycled infinitely
with no loss of quality. This recyclability is further
enhanced by steel’s magnetic properties, which
allows it to be easily extracted from waste.

We are committed to conducting our business in a
way that is eco-friendly and helps to conserve the
environment. Besides reusing and recycling remnant
steel from our operations, we also encourage our
people to minimise carbon footprint by conserving
energy usage, consume water resources responsibly
and refrain from water wastage.
INVESTOR RELATIONS
The ultimate goal of investor relations is to provide
stakeholders with accurate information, so that
they can make educated investment decisions.
We see the importance of maintaining open,
two-way channels of communication, in order to
paint an accurate equity story and manage the
expectations of the financial community. Through
multiple avenues like emails, phone calls, meetings
and email alerts via our corporate website, we strive
to fulfil our responsibility and deliver information
to the market in a timely manner. Another key
mode of engaging the investment community is the
annual general meeting, where shareholders can
raise queries and interact with the management
and board of directors.

Besides training and development, we want our
people to feel comfortable at work as they do
at home. Hence, we strive to provide not only a
conducive work environment with communal areas
to foster team-building, but also encourage work-
life balance to improve our employees’ physical and
mental well-being.
COMMUNITY RELATIONS
As a corporation, we recognise that we play an
important role in contributing to the society and
we believe we can make a difference. We aim to
give back to the society and over the years, we have
contributed monetary donations to many different
charities which help the needy, both young and old.
At the same time, we encourage our employees
to volunteer their time and effort to help the less
fortunate.
Examples of initiatives HG Metal has supported
include donation to Jurong Central Residents/
Committee Fund Raising Dinner and an annual
charity event organized by Thye Hua Kwan which
aims to fund more than 60 programmes and help
over 44,000 beneficiaries with the money raised.
