3. Green emission(1) In 2024, G.Tech Technology upgraded its waste gas treatment system by replacing the original UV photocatalysis and activated carbon adsorption units with a two-stage activated carbon adsorption system. This enhancement has improved exhaust treatment efficiency while reducing emission concentrations: Overall treatment efficiency increased from 76% to over 85%; VOCs concentration in PCB assembly workshop decreased from 0.80 mg/m³ to 0.47 mg/m³ (-41%); VOCs concentration in plastic injection/printing workshop reduced from 1.65 mg/m³ to 0.73 mg/m³ (-56%)".
4. Green recycling(1) The plastic waste and water feed are crushed and sold, and the waste is reused to reduce the use of raw plastic particle materials.
(2) Pallet recycling.
5. Low-carbon concept(1) The air conditioner is adjusted to the appropriate temperature (≥ 26 degrees).
(2) Optimize the routes of official cars and shuttles, green travel, reduce the consumption of gasoline and diesel, and reduce exhaust emissions.
(3) Optimize the computer Settings, do not need to switch to sleep mode for a short time; Shutdown is not used for a long time.
(4) Encourage employees to use stairs and minimize the use of elevators.
(5) Promote electronic office and reduce paper printing; Documents that must be printed are printed on both sides.
(6) Promote green office practices, such as the use of video conferencing.
- Use of Renewable Energy
Active promotion for 100% use of renewable energy,the company plans to achieve 100% renewable energy use by 2030.
G.Tech started to install roof photovoltaic from Oct, 2021, with a total construction capacity of 1370KW and an average annual power generation of 1.364 million KWh. It was completed and connected to the grid for power generation in April 2022, with an expected annual reduction of 1110 tons of carbon dioxide emission.
- Water Resource Management
All water used in G.Tech is water for life, which meets local regulations and has no significant impact on water sources. The Company implements a water resources management plan to record and monitor water resources, their use and discharge. Seek to protect water resources and control pollution channels.

G.Tech action:Enhance the awareness of water saving. Change the wrong concept of "inexhaustible" water resources, and firmly establish the value of "saving water is glorious, and wanton waste is shameful".
Strengthen water-saving responsibility. Leaders of all departments should consciously shoulder the responsibility of water-saving work and strive to be the demonstrator and promoter of water conservation. Start from yourself, start from driving colleagues around, actively take the lead in complying with water conservation regulations, and strive to form a good fashion that everyone cares about saving water and always pays attention to saving water.
Do a good job of saving water. Strengthen the daily maintenance and management of water facilities and equipment, and eliminate the phenomenon of "running and dripping" and "long running water". Vigorously promote and use water-saving appliances, eliminate high-water consumption appliances, and strengthen the recycling of water resources, so that a water multi-purpose, qualitative use, reduce water consumption, eliminate waste, and strive to build water-saving units.
Develop water-saving habits. Leaders of all departments should consciously develop the good habit of planning water use, saving water and repeating water use. Saving water is not difficult, everyone can do it. Tighten the faucet, take away the bottled water that can not be finished during the meeting and keep it to drink, and waste less; Use the last glass of water from cleaning the cup or the leftover water from drinking the day before to water the flowers and save a little more; The saved water is collected into a river and a reservoir.
Strengthen water-saving publicity. Through the Posting of water-saving posters and slogans, water-saving education and publicity activities are regularly carried out. In the majority of workers to form a common concern, joint supervision, joint maintenance, common water saving good situation, in order to drive and influence the whole society, improve the whole society to save water, protect water resources awareness, and jointly build a better home.
- Waste Management
In accordance with the Law of the People's Republic of China on the Prevention and Control of Environmental Pollution by Solid Waste, We classifies and manages the waste generated during production and operation, and cooperates with qualified professional companies to comply with the classification of waste and minimize the negative impact on the environment.
Classification of wastes Example Processing mode Non-recyclable waste Household waste Dispatched to Municipal Sanitation Department for formal disposal. Kitchen waste Kitchen waste Processed through licensed contractors for bio-conversion. Recyclable waste Package carton, metal parts Collected regularly by certified recyclers. Metal components from decommissioned equipment undergo industrial recycling. Hazardous waste Scrap board edge, oil stained rag Stored in Secured Containment Units and processed by Licensed Hazardous Waste Operators for resource recovery or final disposal.
