Project Overview

AZ Wuxi site has long term commitment to sustainable development and the transition toward a circular, resource-efficient operating model.

We have implemented a circular economy and zero-waste policy across its operations. A waste data visualization system has been established to improve transparency, enable regular monitoring, and support data-driven decision-making. Waste-related performance indicators are tracked routinely, with progress reviewed against defined targets to ensure that improvement actions are maintained and continuously strengthened.

We also extends beyond the company’s own operational boundaries by engaging with upstream and downstream partners to reduce waste generation throughout the value chain. Particular emphasis is placed on source reduction, material reuse and recovery, and the prevention of hazardous waste wherever practicable. Through these measures, the company has achieved a waste diversion rate of more than 95%, demonstrating substantial progress in moving materials away from disposal and towards beneficial use within a more circular system.
