Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of the People’s Republic of China (MIIT) has officially released the 2025 list of Green Factories and Green Industrial Parks. CRRC Dalian R&D Co., Ltd. has been named a National-Level Green Factory, recognizing its comprehensive green manufacturing system and measurable low-carbon development performance.
The designation reflects the company’s adoption of a lifecycle-based approach to manufacturing, integrating advanced technologies and refined management practices to achieve efficient resource utilization, clean and controllable production processes, low-carbon energy use, and circular resource management.
In recent years, CRRC Dalian R&D has embedded green development principles throughout R&D, production, and operational management, systematically strengthening its green manufacturing framework. Through enhanced energy efficiency management, clean production upgrades, and improved resource recycling mechanisms, the company has elevated its environmental governance and sustainability performance to industry-leading levels.
1.Intensive Land Use
By optimizing production line layouts and functional zoning, the company has improved overall land-use efficiency and increased output per unit area, advancing more efficient resource allocation.
2.Non-Toxic Raw Materials
The company prioritizes low-toxicity, low-VOC, and environmentally friendly materials, promoting water-based coatings to replace traditional solvent-based paints. It has achieved 100% compliant disposal of hazardous waste, reducing environmental risk at the source.
3. Clean Production
The adoption of reusable tooling has reduced single-use material consumption and enhanced production stability and energy efficiency. Pollution prevention systems have been strengthened to improve standardized and refined site management.
4. Resource Recycling
A comprehensive solid waste classification and recycling system has been established, increasing the recovery and reutilization rate of general industrial waste.
5. Low-Carbon Energy Use
Energy-saving and carbon-reduction upgrades have delivered measurable results: compressed air system retrofits achieved a 54% reduction in electricity consumption, while radiant heating system upgrades reduced natural gas usage by 47%, significantly lowering carbon intensity. An intelligent energy management platform centralizes monitoring of electricity, water, and gas consumption, improving both efficiency and carbon management precision.
The National-Level Green Factory designation marks both recognition and a new stage of development. CRRC Dalian R&D will continue to strengthen its green manufacturing system, accelerate low-carbon transformation, and contribute to China’s carbon peaking and carbon neutrality goals through sustained innovation and responsible industrial practices.
