of steel materials from raw materials to manufacturing processes and
service stage. Carbon reduction effect assessment has been conducted
and third-party low-carbon certification has been initiated. Jingtang Co.has released an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) for hot-rolled
products and completed the application for green products for key grades
such as high strength steel. Zhixin Co. has completed the green design
