Headline intensities

·Values in USD ($)
Peer cohort: · lower is better
Revenue intensity
Carbon / $m revenue
tCO2e / $m revenue

Carbon per million dollars of revenue. The legacy industry-standard reference (CDP, MSCI). Useful for cross-sector context, but distorted by margin — high-margin firms appear artificially efficient. Read alongside the operational and asset intensities for the full picture.

Operational intensity
Carbon / $m OpEx
tCO2e / $m OpEx

OpEx (operating expenditure) is the running cost of the business — staff, services, energy, materials. This shows how carbon-intensive operations are per million dollars of spend. Removes the margin distortion that revenue-based ratios introduce.

Economic intensity
Carbon / $m EVIC
tCO2e / $m EVIC

EVIC (Enterprise Value Including Cash) is the firm's total capital footprint — equity + debt + cash + minority interest. The EU's standard intensity measure (SFDR PAI 3) — answers: how much carbon does each million of capital deployed in this business produce?

Asset intensity
Carbon / $m PP&E + leased
tCO2e / $m PP&E

PP&E (Property, Plant & Equipment) plus leased real-estate assets is the firm's physical infrastructure on the balance sheet. This shows the carbon intensity of that physical footprint — uses Scope 1+2+3 for consistency with the other headline intensities. Surfaces stranded-asset risk for asset-heavy firms.

    Strategy & approach

    How the firm describes its decarbonisation approach in its own words — alongside the headline numbers above. Self-reported, page-cited.

    Approach to renewable energy
    Rooftop PV, purchased green power, and wind/solar deposit investment

    Company is transitioning to green and low-carbon energy through internal renewable generation and purchased renewable electricity. In 2024, total comprehensive energy was 19.59% clean energy and 22.02% of electricity came from renewable sources. Shanghai Asymchem installed ~1.1MW rooftop PV across ~18,000m². Targets include 30-40% green electricity utilization in Tianjin and Dunhua plants by 2025. Purchased RMB200 million in green project deposit products supporting solar and wind power construction.

    Self-reported · FY2024 · p.88
    Approach to carbon removals
    No durable removals programme disclosed; focus on source emission reduction

    The report does not disclose any durable removal procurement (DAC, BECCS, biochar) or nature-based removal credits. Climate strategy is centered on absolute Scope 1+2 reduction (SBTi-validated 42% by 2030 for Jilin Asymchem), green chemistry process emission avoidance, and value-chain coordination rather than offsetting/removals.

    Self-reported · FY2024 · p.81
    Primary decarbonisation levers
    • Business travel reduction via green flights

      49.8% of employee business-travel flights were 'green flights' (lower than median carbon emissions for same city-pair). Air-travel GHG emissions were 1,264.77 tCO2e in 2024, with 146.67 tCO2e avoided via green-flight selection. Encourages public transport for short trips and same-gender shared accommodation on business travel.

    • Continuous flow chemistry & process intensification

      Continuous reaction technology applied to tonnage-scale pharmaceutical manufacturing reduces energy consumption by 30-50%, floor space by ~50%, and three-waste emissions by 10-30% vs batch production. CFCT received 34 newly authorized patents in 2024 and built an Intelligent Continuous Reaction Laboratory. Used for hydrogenation NDA verification production.

    • Bio-enzyme catalysis & synthetic biology

      Immobilized enzyme continuous reaction technology increased productivity up to 1,500x vs traditional enzyme catalysis, saving >70% enzyme usage and significantly reducing wastewater, exhaust gases, and solid waste. E. coli synthetic biology platform achieves de novo synthesis of salidroside at 47.67 g/L, replacing over-exploited plant sources.

    • Energy efficiency: waste-heat recovery, VFDs, nitrogen recovery

      Energy-saving retrofits include waste heat boilers recovering steam from incinerators (4,000 tonnes of steam, saving 136,000 kWh in 2024), nitrogen recovery system at Jilin Asymchem expected to save 2,880 tonnes liquid nitrogen/year, VFDs on high-power motors, primary-rated chillers and compressors, LED lighting. Small molecule production energy consumption reduced 12.8% vs 2023.

    Dependent decarbonisation levers
    • Supplier coordinated emission reduction

      Code of Conduct for Supply Chain prioritizes suppliers committed to environmental protection. ESG Management Policy requires suppliers to reduce energy/water consumption and carbon emissions. In 2024, sent questionnaires and completed audits for 21 suppliers on emission reduction actions and willingness. Targets include key suppliers reducing VOC and COD emission concentrations to <90% of local standards.

    • Green logistics with transport partners

      Prioritizes transport agents with emission reduction solutions. Requires use of electric trucks short-haul, biofuel-powered trucks long-haul, and solar-paneled trucks. Optimized transportation structure (road-to-rail), route planning, and consolidation reduced ~1,000 vehicle trips and avoided ~92 tCO2e in 2024 across three major transport agents.
