Research Institute

Research Institute

Taesung Environmental Research Institute was recognized
as a company-affiliated research institute in 2002.

Through development of environmental technologies such as development of deodorant for odor and harmful substances, analysis of harmful substances in automotive interior parts, and development of customized abatement materials, we are promoting research projects to improve our competitiveness and for better environment.

National Project

We carry out national governmental tasks implemented by the government.
We have undertaken various national projects such as material development, development of analytical technology, development of additives, and development of scavengers.

Project

We collaborate to carry out the project in cooperation with other companies, such as reduction of hazardous substances in our company’s products, identification of the cause of odor, and study of odor reduction.

Material evaluation

Various materials are used to produce products. Rubber, plastics, and fibers are evaluated to prevent consumers from being exposed to harmful substances emitted from materials.

Reduction Research

We conduct reduction research based on the result of material evaluation. We are working on abatement technologies by developing additive to the production process or identifying process problems.
