Recently, NHU was honored with the EcoVadis Gold Medal, recognizing our outstanding performance across key sustainability dimensions including environmental protection, labor and human rights, business ethics, and sustainable procurement. This places NHU among the top 5% of all companies assessed globally, underscoring our unwavering commitment and significant achievements in sustainable development.

As a dedicated advocate of sustainability, NHU has consistently adhered to the business philosophy of “Creating Wealth, Achieving Balance, and Sustaining Development”, embedding ESG principles deeply into our strategic planning and operational practices. Through initiatives such as the construction of a green production system, enhanced collaboration along the industrial chain, and improved employee development mechanisms, NHU has effectively aligned economic performance with social value, continuously generating shared value for all stakeholders.

NHU has always put innovation at the core of our development strategy, focusing on advancing green technologies, resource efficiency, and low-carbon solutions. By driving technological, product, and management innovation, NHU has enhanced both the environmental and comprehensive performance of our product portfolio, injecting strong green momentum into the industry’s sustainable growth.

NHU continues to optimize our energy management systems and promote efficient resource utilization. In the past year, we achieved a 7.67% reduction in energy consumption intensity and a 6.50% decrease in COD per 10,000 RMB of output value. Leveraging our R&D capabilities, NHU has also made significant strides in green process technologies, markedly reducing wastewater, emissions, and solid waste generation while improving waste resource utilization—advancing our goal of achieving clean production.

In our supply chain management, NHU applies stringent entry standards, audits, and risk controls. A rigorous supplier screening and review system evaluates suppliers on business practices, certifications, quality, environmental performance, and safety standards. NHU has established long-term partnerships with suppliers aligned with sustainable development values, ensuring supply chain compliance in areas such as quality, environmental protection, and social responsibilities.

Upholding the principle of “people-centered rapport”, NHU places employees at the heart of our development. Guided by a unique “teacher culture”, we foster employees’ career growth and happy life through mentorship and initiatives such as “five visits and five talks”, OHS training, and holistic support for employee wellbeing. NHU is committed to cultivating an inclusive, diverse, collaborative, and innovative organizational environment that enables both employee and enterprise growth.

The EcoVadis Gold Medal is not only a powerful endorsement of NHU’s sustainability practices, but also serves as a “green passport” for our products to access the international high-end market. Moving forward, NHU will continue to uphold our mission of “Exploring Chemistry, Improving Life”, leveraging technological innovation to empower products and services, advancing progress and innovation throughout the value chain, protecting employee and community wellbeing, and contributing to the development of a healthy, low-carbon global industrial ecosystem.
