Launch of the Pilot "Knowledge Session" for the First Product Carbon Footprint Label Certification

Recently, the State Administration for Market Regulation released the first "Product Carbon Footprint Label Certification Pilot Work 'Knowledge Meeting'" (hereinafter referred to as "Knowledge Meeting"). As the first work guide for the product carbon footprint label certification pilot, the "Knowledge Meeting" integrates practicality, comprehensibility, timeliness, and authority, addressing common issues encountered during the promotion of the product carbon footprint label certification pilot in a Q&A format, effectively supporting the scientific, steady, and efficient advancement of the pilot work.

The "Knowledge Meeting" fully incorporates opinions and suggestions from relevant departments, pilot regions, and pilot institutions, combining policy requirements with actual conditions. It lists potential problems and solutions encountered during the pilot process, closely integrating theoretical knowledge with practical application to truly achieve "easy to understand, easy to grasp, and conducive to practice."

The "Knowledge Meeting" is divided into three chapters: Basic Knowledge, Pilot Content, and Pilot Implementation. It clarifies the specific requirements of the pilot work from multiple aspects such as basic concepts, pilot objectives, work principles, certification procedures, and task division, helping all parties better understand the pilot promotion approach and effectively improving the consistency and effectiveness of pilot implementation.

Next, the State Administration for Market Regulation will closely combine with the actual situation of the pilot, continuously strengthen the sorting of pilot work issues, conduct in-depth Q&A on pilot problems, and comprehensively ensure the construction and operational support of the product carbon footprint label certification pilot, contributing certification strength to promote the green and low-carbon development of China's economy and society.

Important Notice from Beijing Carbon Market!

The national zero-carbon factory policy is now in effect! United Zhiye provides precise support to help clients seize the initiative in their transformation.

Based on the strategic plan proposed by the headquarters, United Zhiye takes the upgrade of its product system as a key driver to build a three-tiered business structure—comprising “zero-carbon factory solutions + carbon-related products + integrated comprehensive services”—and thereby develop end-to-end service capabilities. The original enterprise’s integrated approach to low-carbon development has been upgraded to an integrated approach to zero-carbon development, which we regard as a milestone event. While the zero-carbon factory business focuses on deepening engagement in the manufacturing sector, the integrated approach to zero-carbon enterprise development transcends industry boundaries, extending its reach to the service sector and thus covering a broader scope of services.

For the first time, technology-based small and medium-sized enterprises have been included in the scope of tiered cultivation for high-quality SMEs.

Recently, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology issued the latest revised "Administrative Measures for the Tiered Cultivation of High-Quality Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises" (hereinafter referred to as the "Measures"), which have expanded the scope of cultivation by including technology-based SMEs in the tiered cultivation system for the first time. In the future, the tiered system for high-quality SMEs will encompass technology- and innovation-driven SMEs, specialized, refined, distinctive, and innovative SMEs, and "Little Giant" enterprises that are specialized, refined, distinctive, and innovative. The "Measures" will take effect from April 1, 2026.

Five departments jointly issued the "Guiding Opinions on Carrying Out the Construction of Zero-Carbon Factories."

Recently, five departments—the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council, and the National Energy Administration—jointly issued the "Guiding Opinions on Promoting the Construction of Zero-Carbon Factories" (MIIT Joint [2026] No. 13, hereinafter referred to as the "Guiding Opinions"). These opinions aim to tap deeply into the potential for energy conservation and carbon reduction in the industrial and information technology sectors, drive carbon reduction and efficiency improvements in key industries, promote a green and low-carbon transformation, and foster the development of new-quality productive forces.
