Recently, in the 2023 green manufacturing list released by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, Uni-President Petrochemical was included in it, becoming one of the members of the list of thousands of green factories. According to the requirements of the strategic layout of the carbon neutral industrial chain, while building a green factory, it is also necessary to establish a sustainable chain, a complete carbon neutral industrial roadmap and carbon footprint accounting, as well as excellent low-carbon concept promotion skills.
Up to now, Uni-President Petrochemical has obtained a number of authoritative certifications, including ISO 4067 carbon footprint accounting and certification, ISO14046 water footprint certification, ISO 50001 certification, etc. Among them, under the continuous promotion of the ESG Management Committee, all products under Uni-President have subdivided carbon reduction strategies and roadmaps according to the goal of unified green and low-carbon products. On the one hand, it is to upgrade the low-carbon lubrication laboratory of the unified T-LAB and deepen the low-carbon patented technology; On the other hand, voluntary emission reductions are taken in strict accordance with the provisions of the National Certified Voluntary Emission Reductions (CCER). With continuous efforts, Uni-President Petrochemical's low-carbon products have achieved 100% carbon footprint data, and more than 70% of its products are low-carbon products.
On October 30, 2023, the Uni-President Green and Low-Carbon Alliance was officially launched on the basis that Uni-President Petrochemical has obtained the first batch of ISO20400 sustainable procurement standard system certifications in China. The alliance can reduce greenhouse gas emissions from upstream procurement by cooperating with suppliers of new environmentally friendly materials and sustainable raw materials, and promote suppliers to take the initiative to carry out third-party carbon emission testing, provide carbon footprints, and ensure carbon reduction from the source.
With continuous efforts, Uni-President Petrochemical has launched a unified Himalayan series of lubrication products based on the LCA design concept, which is the first to use environmentally friendly carton packaging, built-in oil storage bags can also be 100% utilized, and the production process is green and environmentally friendly, which not only reduces carbon emissions, but also makes a successful start for Uni-President to achieve plasticization. Recently, Uni-President has launched a new degradable barrel made of PMU inorganic and biodegradable material composition and process, which is environmentally friendly and can be completely degraded in a natural anaerobic environment.
In addition, while continuing to promote carbon reduction, emission reduction and plastic reduction, Uni-President Petrochemical is also continuously improving its ESG management system, giving full play to its brand advantages to actively organize and carry out social welfare activities, advocating people to raise their awareness of carbon reduction and practice a low-carbon lifestyle. For example, the "low-carbon alliance" jointly initiated by Uni-President and Tianjin Emissions Exchange invites many like-minded business partners to participate in the construction of a low-carbon first-class chain and promote the sustainable development of a green and low-carbon first-class chain. Through the release of the Earth Day special edition product unified "confession bucket", the concept of low-carbon is promoted and the awareness of carbon reduction is raised.
As part of the promotion of the country's "carbon neutrality" goal, Uni-President Petrochemical has long closely linked the low-carbon strategy formulated by the company with the national dual carbon goal. In the future, Uni-President will continue to stick to the low-carbon track, play a brand role, create more green and sustainable low-carbon lubrication solutions for the industry, and promote the realization of the goal of carbon neutrality.
