  • Necessity of cooperation: Establishing a stable alliance with producers of recycled vegetable oil is the cornerstone for achieving the "turning waste into treasure" circular model. They provide us with the core biobased raw materials, ensuring that we replace petroleum carbon sources from the source.
    Current Cooperation Status & Plans: We are actively building strategic partnerships to guarantee stable, large-scale supply of upstream raw materials, which is a prerequisite for cost control and mass production.

  • Cooperation Model:We conduct in-depth industry-university-research cooperation with institutions of higher learning (e.g., East China University of Science and Technology) and research organizations, jointly overcoming technical bottlenecks such as bio-based material synthesis and chemical recycling.
    Value Proposition: This collaboration ensures that our technologies remain at the forefront of innovation and helps reserve core talents for the industry.

  • Production Partners: Cooperating with manufacturing enterprises to ensure the stable and efficient conversion of bio-based materials into high-performance products, we achieve the leap from laboratory to market.
    Recycling Partners: We partner with professional waste collection and treatment companies, as well as recycling technology firms, to jointly build an efficient recycling network and circular system. Our goal is to create a transparent, traceable closed-loop system that enables high-value regeneration of products at the end of their service life.

  • International Fashion Brands: Their global influence and sustainability commitments help us bring products to the world, building a high-end, credible eco-friendly brand image.
    Domestic Emerging Brands & Designers: Through flexible cooperation, we jointly explore the applications of sustainable materials in diverse scenarios. Via co-launches, fashion shows and other activities, we tell sustainability stories to consumers and cultivate market awareness.

  • Standard Formulation: We actively participate in industry standardization work, transforming our water-based process and bio-based technology practices into universal technical languages and norms for the industry, driving the overall industrial upgrading.
    Certification & Verification: We cooperate with internationally authoritative certification bodies such as SGS to complete certifications including Product Life Cycle Assessment (LCA). Leveraging objective third-party data, we demonstrate the environmental advantages of our products to the market and build trust.
    Industry Organizations: We were among the pioneering entities in China to promote water-based technology under the ZDHC (Zero Discharge of Hazardous Chemicals) initiative, and have become a signatory member. We deeply participate in the formulation of chemical management standards for the global supply chain.
