The company’s ESG framework, overseen by the Board’s Strategy Committee, performed a dual-materiality analysis and achieved a five-star excellence rating in the 2025 central-SOE ESG assessment, earning accolades such as the Golden Bull Award for Corporate Governance.
Environmental commitments centred on China’s “dual-carbon” goals. CHALIECO invested ¥30.35 million in environmental protection, recorded zero sudden environmental incidents and maintained full compliance in emissions and waste disposal. Total energy use declined to 23,924 tce, cutting energy intensity to 0.0099 tce per ¥10,000 of output, while electricity consumption fell to 75.22 million kWh.

Supply-chain oversight intensified: CHALIECO reviewed 813 suppliers, suspended 35 for ESG non-compliance and ran 297 ESG training sessions. Centralised procurement reached 89.74 %.
Internationally, newly signed overseas contracts surged 263.38 % year-on-year to ¥22.15 billion, driven by large Indonesian and Guinean projects using proprietary green-tech solutions.
Looking to 2026, the first year of China’s 15th Five-Year Plan, CHALIECO plans to deepen digital transformation, maintain R&D spending above 3.2 % of revenue and focus on “technology + international” growth while pursuing world-class engineering status within the non-ferrous metals sector.
