with integrity and in compliance with all applicable

laws and regulations. We work to ensure employee

growth and value realization. We actively contribute

  hired locally;

and circular economy: We are committed to

minimizing our environmental impacts during our

production and operations and throughout our

product and service lifecycles. We use our innovative

products and solutions to help industries conserve

energy and reduce emissions, and contribute to a

circular economy. We make ongoing efforts to work

with all industry partners to build a low-carbon

society. Our progress in 2019 was impressive:

  up to 22%;

  level-A certification from the China Quality
  Certification Center (CQC), the highest level
