Research & Development at Eternal
Foundation Stone: High-molecular Chemical Materials for Specific Use |
| The chemical industry in Taiwan has become
world class over the last 40 years. From initially focusing on processing intermediate
materials, such as imported plastic and resin, technology has been gradually introduced to
manufacture these raw materials. Incrementally, over the last forty years, the
manufacturing system has become more complete. Recently however, there have been changes
in the overall industrial structure in Taiwan, due to many labor-intensive industries
leaving the country. Left behind have been the "star industries" such as PCB,
semiconductor, information, communication, display and CD-ROMs, which have been growing
aggressively. Eternal specializes in providing these "star industries" with
high-molecular specific use chemical materials. As these remaining industries are being
upgraded and transformed, exclusive high-molecular chemical materials are in great demand,
to produce products of high technology, high added value and low pollution. |
| Method to Expand: Researching and
Developing |
| Eternal emphasizes
long-term research and development, challenging new technologies
with confidence. It has been this long-term belief, as well
as a carefully planned and strategic approach, in R&D that
has fueled the steady upward rise of Eternal. By being able
to manufacture innovative products, we have elevated the turnover
from one billion (NT$) a decade ago to twenty-three
billion now. Throughout,
our Research Center, located in Lu Chu, Kaohsiung, has been
central to our implementation of R&D planning. |
| Priority: an
R&D Team Based on Mutual Trust |
| "An excellent
researcher is not here to make a living, to contribute."
Our priority is to choose and foster talent. There is a mutual
trust and understanding between our R&D team and management.
Eternal provides researchers with an opportunity to equal or
better existing international chemical companies, and develop
their potential to the full. Eternal researchers enjoy an excellent
working environment with impeccable facilities and total management
support. |
| Goal: to Take Tougher Challenges |
| Taiwan has been
advancing in industrial technology infrastructure, and reinforcing
its economic strength over the last 40 years. As a result, many
large international manufacturers regard Taiwanese companies
as a competitor not to be ignored. Presently most of the recently
emerging industries still depend greatly on imported key materials
and exclusive chemicals. This is still a latent worry which
weakens Taiwan industries as a whole competitiveness, and it
is a concern that Eternal and its employees take seriously.
To take on and succeed in tougher challenges is part of the
R&D spirit at Eternal. |
