These products meet European market requirements with an energy-saving label rating of A+ and A++, and use a low-gwp refrigerant of HFC-32. Developing and selling air cooling VRV products: We have released three series of VRV systems that balance temperature and humidity, which include energy-saving technology that achieves an IPLV value of The dehumidifying, drying, and ventilation functions of these products enable comfortable rooms and provide a better living environment. 1

2 Environment: Major Efforts to Reduce Environmental Impact Reducing the power supply load of cooling systems Our Co-Gen project collects heat from a gas engine driven compressor via an absorption chiller (ADC) to reduce the power supply load of spot cooling systems at our production site. This enables our electricity consumption to be reduced by 437,760 KWh/year, which equates to an annual saving of 188,018 ringgit. Reusing wooden pallets We have reduced our wood waste by reusing wooden pallets and redesigning packaging boxes. Wooden pallets are reused for storage and collection of scheduled waste materials. This reduces our wood waste by approximately 300 kg per month. Redesigning the packaging boxes for aluminum fin rolls provided by a local supplier enables wood use to be reduced by approximately 35% per box. Using renewable energy by installing solar panels 3,136 solar panels are installed on our plant roof, which generate approximately 1 MW of power at peak supply times, for an expected annual CO 2 reduction of approximately 1,010,724kg. The panels are estimated to generate approximately 1,364,000 kwh of power annually. Environment: Examples of Environmental Communications Raising employee awareness During environment week in June 2016, we held an exhibition for sharing information on corporate environmental issues, such as energy and water conservation, CO 2 emissions, and waste management and conducted a quiz on the exhibition materials. We also had the Waste Management Association of Malaysia hold a talk on the 3Rs (reduce, reuse, and recycle), which was attended by 48 employees, who were able to raise their awareness regarding waste management. 2
