On June 20, 2026, an exciting news came that Sailun Group, an enterprise in Qingdao West Coast New Area, achieved a landmark achievement.
Its short-term and long-term scientific carbon reduction targets have been officially verified by the Science-Based Target Initiative (SBTi), making Sailun Group the first company in the Chinese tire industry to win this honor, setting an excellent example for the low-carbon upgrading of the national tire industry.
The Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) has extremely high authority and influence in the global corporate climate action mechanism.
It takes the 1.5°C temperature control target of the Paris Agreement as the core criterion and provides a unified scientific standard for global companies to formulate and implement greenhouse gas emission reduction targets.
Sailun Group passed the SBTi verification this time, fully demonstrating the scientific, forward-looking and practical nature of the company’s carbon reduction plan.
This is not only an important breakthrough for the company’s own development, but also marks the key progress that West Coast New Area companies have made in integrating with the international green development system and enhancing global industrial competitiveness.
As the main enterprise in the national high-end rubber tire industry chain, Sailun Group has been actively involved in the transformation of energy structure.
The company relies on a series of measures such as photovoltaic power generation, the use of biomass fuels, sustainable materials, and the purchase of green electricity certificates to comprehensively promote 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 series of results fully reflects Sailun Group’s firm determination and practical actions in energy conservation and emission reduction.
In addition to its efforts in the production process, Sailun Group also continues to optimize the global logistics and transportation network and vigorously promote the transformation of transportation structure.
Enterprises give priority to low-carbon transportation methods such as railways and waterways, and encourage suppliers to use recyclable raw material packaging.
These measures have enabled Sailun Group to achieve remarkable results in green and low-carbon transformation, providing valuable experience for the sustainable development of the industry.
The successful verification of Sailun Group is not only an affirmation of the company’s own efforts, but also points the way for the low-carbon development of the entire Chinese tire industry.
Today, as the world pays increasing attention to environmental protection and sustainable development, this achievement of Sailun Group will inspire more companies to actively participate in low-carbon transformation.
In the future, we have reason to believe that Sailun Group will continue to play its leading role in the industry and make greater contributions to promoting the green development of China’s tire industry.
At the same time, we also hope that more Chinese companies can, like Sailun Group, actively respond to the international call for green development and contribute China’s strength to global climate action.
