Dahua achieves emission reduction through innovative packaging
In the past year, Dahua Technology has adhered to its mission of “enabling a safer society and smarter living.” With the core information technologies such as software, big data, artificial intelligence, and AIoT, Dahua continues to contribute to urban road accident reduction, environment protection, the improvement of green energy utility efficiency, etc.
In 2021, the number of Dahua products that obtained China Energy-saving Product Certification reached 126 – a 39% increase compared to 2020. The number of materials that received RoHS Certification reached 95,520.
In order to strengthen the compliance of business operations and improve the efficiency of recycling, Dahua developed a refund & return management platform, transitioning its traditional business model into digital information management. It realizes online management of material return, material reception, treatment scheme evaluation and treatment scheme execution to realize the visibility and traceability of the whole process. At the same time, it utilized the data to reduce returned products from the source, prevent environmental pollution, reduce waste generation, and reduce operating costs.
In packaging material management, Dahua mainly uses paper, plastic, wood and metal packaging materials and other packaging auxiliary materials, in accordance with the principle of lightweight, recyclable and sustainable. Meanwhile, the packaging is also in strict accordance with the EU 94/62/EC packaging and waste packaging directive for hazardous substances control, ensuring the total content of lead, mercury, cadmium, and hexavalent chromium in packaging materials does not exceed 0.01% (100ppm). Carton products strictly comply with the relevant requirements of GBT 39084-2020 Green Product Evaluation Express Packaging Products.
Through technological and design innovation, Dahua promotes energy saving and consumption reduction in the upstream and downstream of the packaging industry chain, realizes standardized and intelligent packaging design, reduces the use of packaging materials, decreases the proportion of plastic applications, and improves the utilization of storage and transportation space.
It is worth mentioning that Dahua developed an EHS paper pallet to substitute for plastic, which improves the recycling and degradation of packaging, achieves more than 50% weight reduction and reduces production energy consumption. Moreover, the new film composite packaging technology developed by Dahua Innovation uses 100% recyclable and green environmental protection materials, which can reduce the use of packaging materials by 40%, increase production capacity by 30%, and increase storage and transportation space utilization rate by 50%.
