Highstar has launched a comprehensive sustainability assessment to support its ongoing green transformation and global compliance efforts. Guided by the internationally recognized certification body TÜV Rheinland, the assessment focuses on three key areas: the construction of an ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) management system, supply chain due diligence, and the achievement of dual carbon goals.
The ESG system review will cover Highstar’s core performance metrics for 2024, including carbon emissions and carbon footprint data, employee rights and community responsibility initiatives, and the development of governance and compliance mechanisms. With TÜV Rheinland’s support, Highstar plans to align its information disclosure processes with international standards such as the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) and relevant stock exchange guidelines, enhancing transparency and reinforcing stakeholder confidence.
To advance its dual carbon strategy, Highstar is conducting ISO 14067 product carbon footprint assessments alongside ISO 14064 corporate carbon verification. These certifications establish a quantifiable and verifiable carbon emissions data system, helping the company meet domestic procurement requirements and international green purchasing trends. The dual certifications are expected to strengthen Highstar’s competitiveness both in domestic markets and in its overseas expansion.
In response to the European Union’s New Battery Regulation (EU 2023/1542) and the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive, Highstar is also building a robust supply chain due diligence framework. This system will address raw material traceability, risk identification and mitigation processes, and third-party independent audits. By aligning with the compliance requirements of major global customers, the company aims to navigate green trade barriers and secure a stable foundation for growth in the European market.
Through this initiative, Highstar intends to enhance management compliance, fortify relationships with customers and investors, and position itself at the forefront of sustainable supply chain practices. The company will continue to refine its ESG framework, integrating green values into all aspects of its operations. Highstar’s proactive approach underlines a shift from passive compliance to active leadership, leveraging ESG to drive product differentiation, strengthen customer trust, and capture policy incentives.
