Who We Are

Connecting materials and society,
We envision and implement a sustainable future.

Pantech is a company that starts with the recycling of materials, including plastics, and works with partners to design a system that keeps the cycle going, from collection and sorting to the supply of recycled raw materials.

Ideology

Regeneration
Designer

Economy and the environment, ideals and reality, organizations and individuals.
In between lies a division that closes off the future,
We will face the issue head-on.

Unleashing the hidden value within materials, people, and society.
To that end, we will find and refine new possibilities.
Reweaving the fragmented relationship,
Design a system where resources circulate smoothly and efficiently.

PANTECH , as a RegenerationDesigner,
Working together and sweating on site,
We will continue to create the foundation for a circular society where value circulates.

Management philosophy

"Win-win-win"

Our management objective is to pursue the happiness of all employees.
To achieve this, we have adopted the "Three-Way Win Principle" as our management philosophy.

We interpret the Omi merchants' belief of "good for the seller, good for the buyer, and good for society" in our own Pantech way, and pursue the greatest benefit for all three parties: our waste-emitting companies, our partner factories, and Pantech.

PANTECH Circular Ecosystem

Providing end-to-end solutions that offer a comprehensive overview of the entire fragmented supply chain.

Pantech , we consistently provide a circular economy system that transforms used materials into resources that can thrive again in society. We handle everything from accepting waste to designing, processing, and quality control of recycled materials, as well as supplying them according to their intended use, while also designing the system to include "invisible value" such as distribution, information, and trust.

Our business is not just about the materials themselves, but also about "designing the circular economy"—connecting diverse stakeholders such as waste generators, recyclers, consumers, and government agencies, and implementing the very structure of the circular economy into society.

PANTECH
Circular Ecosystem

PARTNER, PANTECH, PLANET

Win-win-win situation for all parties involved.

Overcoming divisions, liberating the value dormant in materials, people, and society, a state where PARTNER, PANTECH, and PLANET share that value.

CO-CREATION

co-creation

We will build the foundation for a circular society where value circulates, together with our partners.

RESOURCE

Management resources

Human resources, knowledge, environment, capital, information, and all other management resources that form the foundation of corporate activities.

CIRCULATION

circulation

We will create co-creation based on our "management resources" and achieve a win-win-win situation. The shared value will become new "management resources," creating the next "cycle."

Message

Pantech's corporate philosophy is "Sanpo Yoshi" (three-way satisfaction). Inheriting the spirit of "good for the seller, good for the buyer, and good for society" valued by the Omi merchants, we have reinterpreted "good for society" to extend to the global environment that we face as a business—"PLANET (Earth)." PARTNER, PANTECH, and PLANET. A state in which these three parties harmonize at a high level and share the value they create. That is the unchanging vision that we continue to strive for. Thirty years have passed since our founding. The trust we have built with our partners over those years, the knowledge and information we have accumulated, and the will of each individual who works diligently and honestly on the front lines—all of these are our invaluable management resources that drive the next cycle. Economy and environment, ideals and reality, organization and individual. We face head-on the divisions that lie in society. As a "Regeneration Designer," we not only uphold our ideals, but we also visit sites and work with our partners to design systems for resource circulation, steadily building the foundation of a circular society step by step. Rather than being a "big company" that simply pursues scale, we aim to be a "good company" that continuously returns tangible value to society, and together with you, we will continue to weave a future where value circulates.

Resource recycling is no longer merely an environmental contribution. With increasingly sophisticated regulations and diversifying needs, it has become an urgent management issue that affects not only the sustainability of the planet but also the sustainability of companies. That is why Pantech continues to stand at the forefront of this challenge. We define ourselves as "Regeneration Designers" who reconstruct the relationship between materials, people, and society. At the core of this is "the utilization of data." Data obtained by working on-site and data analyzed at the Circular Design Center. We combine these two types of "explicit knowledge" with the "experiential knowledge" of knowledge and know-how that we have cultivated so far. In this way, we regenerate materials that were previously discarded into valuable resources, supply them to manufacturing sites, and return them to society once again. Designing the very "mechanism" of resource recycling is the reason for our existence. Sustainable resource recycling requires rationality in three elements: environment, economy, and society. If even one of these is missing, the recycling will not take hold. We will build a solid foundation while creating a harmonious, circular society together with our partners.
