The Galaxy Awards is an international competition organized by MerComm, a U.S.-based communications organization. Entries are judged on creativity, effectiveness in conveying information, and visual execution, among other criteria. This year, 262 entries from 13 countries were submitted.


Korea Zinc's report covers its environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance and its growth strategy as a clean energy and materials company. In particular, it summarizes key achievements and challenges related to five core issues identified through a double materiality assessment: occupational health and safety management, climate change response, ethical and compliance management, pollution and hazardous materials management, and resource circulation and waste management.


The report uses images and colors that reflect the characteristics of a metal smelting company to distinguish information by subject area. It places key achievements and quantitative indicators in the main text and includes detailed data in the appendix to improve readability. Korea Zinc said the report was highly rated for its organization of information and visual presentation.


Korea Zinc has maintained a Grade 1 rating across all areas in the ESG QualityScore of global proxy advisory firm ISS, and has also received an A rating in MSCI's ESG assessment.



A Korea Zinc official said, "We will continue to strengthen our ability to put sustainable management into practice and transparently disclose our achievements and challenges through our sustainability reports, further building trust-based communication with stakeholders."
