Sakura Ferroalloys process plant powered by Sarawak hydropower

Our ESG foundation

Sustainability has been part of Sakura's identity from day one.

Sustainability at the core

From its inception, Sakura embedded sustainability into its identity, choosing Sarawak for its renewable hydropower and committing to low-carbon, responsible growth. Powering a smelter with hydroelectricity instead of fossil fuels is one of the biggest levers a ferro-alloy producer has, and it was a deliberate choice from the start.

Our strong foundation in health, safety and environmental management has since grown into a comprehensive ESG framework that integrates economic, environmental, social and governance priorities across the business.

Material focus for impact

A 2024 materiality assessment identified thirteen key matters vital to our stakeholders and business success. These guide our strategy and reporting, structured into five sustainability areas that define Sakura's long-term focus.

01Economics
02Ethics & Governance
03Environment
04Workplace
05Community & Supply Chain

These five areas organise thirteen material matters spanning economic performance and product quality, ethics, compliance and data privacy, climate action, material and water management, occupational health and safety, employee wellbeing, community investment and responsible supply chain, each tracked through our strategy and reporting.
