The Company uses its waste clearance receipts as the basis for the inventory of business waste, and the GHG emissions from final disposal are calculated using data on the carbon footprint of waste incineration services. To achieve the goal of sustainable resource reuse, the Company’s waste treatment principles follow a clear hierarchy: priority is given to in-house reuse to reduce raw material consumption; this is followed by recycling and reuse, and, ultimately, incineration, landfill, or other disposal methods as the last resort.

The Company has adopted “total volume reduction” and “waste valorization” as its core waste management strategies. By implementing source management measures, such as design optimization, process technology improvements, and raw material reduction, the Company has effectively reduced waste generation and achieved its waste reduction targets.

For waste management, certain reusable resources are sorted and reused, with the main items including wood (e.g., wooden pallets), metal (e.g., iron bases), and plastic materials (e.g., plastic bags). However, since these reused resources are mostly miscellaneous parts, the statistical challenges in measuring their weight and quantity have limited their formal inclusion in the current inventory data. Going forward, the Company will continue to develop a feasible quantification mechanism to enhance the accuracy and transparency of reuse management.
