Recently, an exciting news came from Qingdao West Coast New District.
Sailun Group’s short-term and long-term scientific carbon reduction targets have officially passed the official verification of the Scientific Target Initiative (SBTi), becoming the first company in China’s tire industry to pass SBTi verification. This achievement has set a shining example for the low-carbon upgrading of the national tire industry.
The Science-Based Target Initiative (SBTi) is the world’s most authoritative and influential corporate climate action mechanism. It uses the 1.5°C temperature control target of the Paris Agreement as its core criterion and provides unified scientific standards for global companies to formulate and implement greenhouse gas emission reduction targets.
This time, Sailun Group passed the SBTi verification, which fully demonstrates the scientific, forward-looking and practical nature of the company’s carbon reduction plan.
This is not only an important milestone in Sailun Group’s own development, but also marks a key breakthrough for enterprises in the West Coast New Area to integrate into the international green development system and enhance global industrial competitiveness.
As the main enterprise in the national high-end rubber tire industry chain, Sailun Group has been sparing no effort in reducing carbon emissions.
The company continues to promote the transformation of energy structure and actively promotes the application of clean energy.
Relying on photovoltaic power generation, Sailun Group makes full use of solar energy, a renewable energy, and reduces its dependence on traditional fossil energy.
At the same time, measures such as the use of biomass fuels, sustainable materials, and the purchase of green electricity and green certificates have comprehensively promoted energy conservation and carbon reduction in the production process.
Over the years, the energy consumption intensity and carbon emission intensity of tires have continued to decline steadily. This achievement is inseparable from the unremitting efforts of Sailun Group.
Sailun Group also performed well in optimizing the global logistics and transportation network.
Enterprises vigorously promote the transformation of transportation structure and give priority to low-carbon transportation methods such as railways and waterways.
These modes of transport have lower carbon emissions and higher efficiency than road transport.
In addition, Sailun Group also encourages suppliers to use recyclable raw material packaging, further reducing carbon emissions in the logistics process.
Through these measures, Sailun Group has achieved remarkable results in its green and low-carbon transformation.
Sailun Group’s successful experience provides valuable reference for the national tire industry.
Against the background of the global advocacy of green development, tire companies can only remain invincible in the fierce market competition by actively responding to national policies and accelerating low-carbon transformation.
Sailun Group passed the SBTi verification, which not only enhanced its brand image and international competitiveness, but also injected new impetus into the sustainable development of the entire industry.
In the future, I believe that more tire companies will join the ranks of low-carbon development and jointly promote the Chinese tire industry in a green, low-carbon, and high-quality direction.
