As a leading manufacturer in China's specialty paper industry, Hengchuan New Material which is a national high-tech enterprise specializing in the production of specialty paper has successfully completed the SEDEX4P audit recently. This indicates that Hengchuan New Material meets international high standards in labor rights, work safety, environmental management, and business ethics. At the same time, it formally accepts the systematic supervision of the international community on its supply chain ethics and compliance system.

 

SMETA is a professional audit system focusing on workplace-level labor standards, health and safety, and environmental performance. By aligning with local laws and regulations and the basic guidelines of the Ethical Trade Initiative (ETI), it provides the highest standard of protection for workers' rights. Applicable to all countries, scales, and industries around the world, SMETA enables one audit shared by multiple clients and forms a globally comparable compliance data set. SEDEX4-pillar is a high-level certification model under the globally recognized SMETA business ethics audit framework. Compared with the 2-pillar audit, Hengchuan New Material has chosen the advanced 4-pillar audit. On the basis of labor standards and health & safety, this audit adds in-depth environmental assessment and business ethics sections, forming four core audit pillars and enhancing the depth and breadth of the audit.

 

This audit brings Hengchuan New Material with multiple strategic values. On the one hand, the enterprise has successfully obtained a passport to enter the international supply chains. On the other hand, it has further improved the full-chain risk prevention and control system from raw material procurement to production emissions. This practice profoundly confirms the strategic value of social responsibility for manufacturing enterprises — in the paper industry where environmental policies are continuously tightening, ethical compliance has become a core investment direction for enterprises to build long-term competitiveness.
