Social Engagement
Businesses should pursue economic benefits and assume social responsibilities, actively participating in social welfare and supporting vulnerable groups. As a conscientious enterprise, MBI has always been dedicated to fulfilling corporate social responsibility by sponsoring and supporting various social welfare projects to help those in need, improving their quality of life and well-being. We believe that the responsibility of a business lies not only in manufacturing products and providing services but, more importantly, in playing a positive role in promoting social progress and achieving common prosperity.
Therefore, MBI commits to improving human life through research and innovation, and we pledge to give back to society and assist disadvantaged groups. Regarding research and development, the Company continuously invests in innovative technologies to create more high-quality products, bringing health and happiness to consumers. In terms of philanthropy, we provide educational donations and support to disadvantaged groups, helping them enhance their abilities. Moreover, MBI actively participates in local charitable activities, connecting our colleagues with the broader society to raise more awareness about social welfare and encourage involvement. Our Company’s social responsibility not only demonstrates our conscience and care but also brings a positive impact on society.

This interaction enhances the Company’s social image and establishes a mutually beneficial cooperative relationship.
