The China Quality Certification Centre (CQC) has rolled out two pivotal group standards, advancing the sustainability agenda within the beverage and transport sectors. The newly introduced "Guidelines for Water Footprint Assessment of Beer Products" (T/CIET 386-2024) and the English version of the "Product Carbon Footprint Product Category Rules for Electric Bicycles" (T/CHINABICYCLE 27-2024) have been rigorously developed by CQC experts leveraging their expertise in water and carbon footprint assessments.

These specialists embarked on comprehensive research into resource utilization and environmental impact within the beer and electric bicycle industries, crafting thoroughly scientific methodologies for determining both water and carbon footprints encapsulated within these standards.

The deployment of these directives provides robust metrics and benchmarks for environmental accounting, propelling manufacturers toward introspection of their ecological impact and championing low-carbon operations and resource conservation. Moreover, these standards empower consumers to make eco-conscious choices, thus catalyzing the embrace of green consumerism.

Fostering innovation in sustainability, CQC is committed to ongoing collaborations with industrial partners to perpetuate the momentum in green standardization, aligning with broader objectives for ecological stewardship across various sectors.
