ESG practices in the organic silicon industry: green production and circular economy become new benchmarks

Hits: 847 img

Driven by the "dual carbon" goal, organic silicon companies are integrating ESG (environmental, social, governance) concepts into their strategic core. By 2025, the energy consumption per unit output value of the industry will decrease by 30% compared to 2020, and the comprehensive utilization rate of waste will increase to 95%. Several companies have been selected as "Sustainable Development Pioneer Enterprises" by the United Nations Global Compact Organization.


Green Production: Zero Carbon Factory Landing
Hesheng Silicon Industry has built the world's first zero carbon organic silicon factory in Shanshan Industrial Park, replacing traditional coal based hydrogen production with "photovoltaic power generation+electrolytic water hydrogen production", reducing annual carbon dioxide emissions by 1.2 million tons. At the same time, the factory adopts a closed-loop water system, with a water recycling utilization rate of 98%, which is 40 percentage points higher than the industry average. This model has been listed as a "typical case of green manufacturing" by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and promoted nationwide.


Circular Economy: Silicon Mud Turning Waste into Treasure
Xingfa Group has developed a circular industry chain of "silicon mud white carbon black silicone rubber" to address the by-product silicon mud (with a silicon content of 60%) in organic silicon production. By acid leaching, calcination and other processes, silicon sludge is converted into high value-added white carbon black, which is used in fields such as tires and feed, with an additional value of 3000 yuan per ton of silicon sludge. By 2025, the comprehensive utilization rate of silicon sludge in the company will reach 100%, and the annual reduction of solid waste emissions will be 200000 tons.


Social Responsibility: Empowering Employees with Skills Training
Xin'an Corporation has established the "Organic Silicon Craftsman College" and collaborated with Zhejiang University and Wacker Germany to develop a curriculum system, providing employees with skills training in digital manufacturing, safety and environmental protection. By 2025, the college will have trained a total of 1200 senior technicians, with an average employee income 20% higher than the industry average, and a turnover rate of less than 5%.


Governance Innovation: Blockchain Traceability System Launched
Dongyue Silicon Materials and Ant Chain have launched the "Silicon Chain Connect" platform, which provides full process traceability for raw material procurement, production, logistics, and other links. Customers can view product carbon footprint, quality inspection reports, and other information by scanning the code, enhancing brand trust. At present, the platform has covered 80% of the company's products, and customer satisfaction has increased to 98%.


International recognition: Standard output enhances discourse power
In June 2025, the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) officially adopted the "Technical Specification for Life Cycle Assessment of Organosilicon Materials" proposed by China, filling the global industry gap. This standard was developed with the participation of companies such as Hesheng Silicon Industry and Dongyue Silicon Materials, requiring them to disclose environmental impact data throughout the product lifecycle and promote the industry's green transformation.


Investment Trend: ESG Funds Increase Their Layout
According to Wind data, the allocation ratio of domestic ESG themed funds to the organic silicon industry will increase to 8% by 2025, doubling from 2024. Among them, top institutions such as Jiashi Fund and E Fund hold heavy positions in targets such as Hesheng Silicon Industry and Xingfa Group, and are optimistic about their long-term value growth potential.
