Recently, the Zhuhai Municipal Bureau of Industry and Information Technology officially announced the “2025 Green Manufacturing List” of Zhuhai City. Zhuhai Enzyme Products was awarded the title of “Green Factory”, which means that the green manufacturing system of Enzyme Products with synthetic biotechnology as its core has been officially recognized by the government . It also sets a benchmark for Zhuhai City to implement the “Three-Year Action Plan for Green Upgrading of Manufacturing Industry”.
A “green factory” refers to a manufacturing enterprise that achieves green development throughout its entire lifecycle by implementing five core measures, namely, intensive land use, harmless raw materials, clean production, waste resource utilization, and low-carbon energy, in accordance with the “General Rules for Green Factory Evaluation” (GB/T 36132). As a leader in green active ingredients, Enzyme Products consistently practices the concept of sustainable development, actively responds to the national goal of promoting green development in the manufacturing industry, and accelerates the transformation of functional ingredient manufacturing towards a “green, low-carbon, and recyclable” direction .
1. The Green Code of Enzyme Products
Enzyme products consistently adhere to the concept of green manufacturing throughout their entire product lifecycle , actively undertaking leadership responsibilities and contributing to the national “dual carbon” strategy.
Zhuhai Enzyme Products Co., Ltd. was established in February 2021 and has won the highest award in Zhuhai for its innovation and entrepreneurship support program – the title of “2022 Zhuhai Innovation and Entrepreneurship Team”. The Zhuhai Enzyme Products Intelligent Factory is the first 100-ton-level green active raw material production base for enzyme products, and has achieved large-scale production of star functional raw materials such as NMN, glutathione, ergothioneine, and human milk oligosaccharides, accelerating the green transformation of the raw material manufacturing industry.
The Zhuhai plant utilizes cell-free and whole-cell synthesis technologies to achieve large-scale production of green active raw materials, represented by biomolecules. The entire process takes place in an aquatic environment, avoiding high temperatures, high pressures, and toxic solvents, thus eliminating pollution at the source. Furthermore, the reaction wastewater can be recycled for agricultural fertilizer production, efficiently removing nitrogen and phosphorus while achieving recycling.
The enzyme products have established and applied a complete green management system, and have obtained authoritative international and domestic certifications in quality management and green production. They have obtained ISO 9001, ISO 45001, ISO 14001, ISO 14064, ISO 50001, FDA cGMP, EFfCI GMP and other certifications. This signifies that the enzyme products have built a comprehensive and internationally compliant systematic management capability in the fields of quality, environment, occupational health and safety, energy and carbon management, and have deeply integrated the concept of sustainable development into the core of operations.
In the future, enzyme products will continue to play a benchmark role in “green factories,” actively respond to the national strategy of “carbon peaking and carbon neutrality,” promote the development of green manufacturing, and continuously achieve the goal of becoming a “leader in green active raw materials.”
