PrimeAsia China credited for environmental performance
10/01/2018
The Central Government awards four colour ratings: Green (100-96 points), Blue (95-90 points), Yellow (90-60 points) and Red (< 60 points).
“In Huangjiang, where PrimeAsia China is located, no factories are listed as Green and few are listed as Blue,” said PrimeAsia. “The Central Government's audit program is more difficult than the local government's auditing of factories, so well done to our team.”
The tannery recently updated its volatile organic compounds (VOC) scrubbing system at a cost of 7 million RMB ($1 million). The new scrubbers remove over 95% of VOCs from the tannery's spray machines.
“We have mostly switched to water-based solvents but a few physical quality requirements still necessitate VOC-based solvents, making the purchase of these scrubbers a requirement for PrimeAsia to ensure VOCs are not being emitted into the environment,” added PrimeAsia.
