The three-system certification refers to ISO9001 certification, ISO14001 certification, and ISO45001 certification.

ISO14001 is the environmental management system standard formulated by ISO, currently the most comprehensive and systematic international environmental management standard applicable to organizations of any type and size.

ISO has now become the entry threshold for many bidding projects. More and more bidding projects, especially engineering-related ones, will award 4-6 bonus points for the ISO three-system certification.

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.
