Kyoto, Japan – November 28, 2024 – SCREEN Semiconductor Solutions Co., Ltd. (SCREEN SPE; president: Akihiko Okamoto), a SCREEN Holdings Group company, has been awarded Platinum Status, the highest status level, by the Responsible Business Alliance (RBA)* following an audit under its Validated Assessment Program (VAP) conducted at SCREEN SPE’s Hikone Site (also covering its Taga Site).

To fulfill its social responsibilities as a corporation, the SCREEN Group has established both a CSR Charter and a Code of Conduct.
