Recently, the State Administration for Market Regulation (National Standardization Administration) approved and released 106 important national standards, covering many fields such as agriculture and rural areas, green environmental protection, public safety, and distance education.

In the field of agriculture and rural areas the national standard "Technical Guidelines for the Protection and Restoration of Historic and Cultural Villages" uses standardization methods to regulate and guide all aspects of the protection and restoration of China's historic and cultural villages, providing technical support for their preservation and restoration. The national standard "Service Quality Specification for Rural Homestays" helps promote the existing development experience of rural homestays and overall improve the service quality level of rural homestays nationwide. The two national standards "Compound Feed for Piglets and Growing-Fattening Pigs" and "Compound Feed for Laying Hens and Broilers" effectively promote the maximization of feed utilization, reducing feed costs and pollutant emissions from excrement.

In the field of green environmental protection the newly revised national standard "General Rules for Comprehensive Energy Consumption Calculation" will provide fundamental standardized technical support for national energy-saving work, having a significant impact on strengthening energy accounting, energy-saving management, and energy efficiency improvement in energy-consuming units. The national standard "Cement Packaging Bags" greatly reduces dust leakage and dust emissions during cement packaging, loading, and transportation, facilitating the further development of automatic cement packaging and loading technology, and meeting the country's increasingly stringent occupational health and environmental protection requirements.

In the field of public safety the national standard "Safety Requirements for Escalators and Moving Walks Part 1: Basic Safety Requirements" helps further improve China's elevator standard system, enhance the quality level of escalators and moving walks, and ensure the safety of people's lives and property. The national standard "General Technical Conditions for Virtual Experience Systems of Amusement Facilities" standardizes for the first time the design and manufacturing requirements of virtual experience systems for amusement facilities, which is of great significance for improving product safety and ensuring the healthy development of the industry. The national standard "Functional Safety Requirements and Test Methods for Battery Management Systems of Electric Vehicles" helps strengthen the understanding and application of functional safety technology in the new energy vehicle industry, preventing and reducing safety accidents such as vehicle smoking, fire, and explosion.

In the field of distance education the national standard "Distance Education Service Specification" combines cutting-edge domestic and international achievements in distance education service standardization, proposing normative requirements for distance education services. It helps improve the management level and service quality of distance education in China during the epidemic prevention and control period, providing strong support for establishing high-quality distance education service models and improving the lifelong education system.

China's service certification market has huge potential. The average annual growth rates of service certification institutions and the number of certificates issued reached 86.82% and 135.06% respectively over four years.

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.
