Hu Pao’s GM Wang: “Net Zero” Is an Opportunity for Fasteners to Be Redefined
Hu Pao’s GM Wang: “Net Zero” Is an Opportunity for Fasteners to Be Redefined

In order to reverse the public’s stereotype of dirty screw factories, GM Wang, who fully believes that enterprises should not only focus on profits but also bear environmental and social responsibilities, began to promote “net zero” in the fastener industry many years ago, and started with his own factory expansion to create a comfortable and safe workplace with low carbon emissions for all employees. He thinks that the disasters caused by climate change have become more serious than ever, and if people don’t do something, they are bound to affect our future generations.“Net zero can’t be just a lip service and change can only be made by breaking old rules,” says Wang. Such ideas can be implemented in fastener factories through 5S management, lean process management, digital carbon emission management, or improving high carbon emissions through organizations. He thinks that the spirit of net zero is sustainable coexistence, not to comply with regulations, but to demonstrate a company’s commitment to environmental protection and find a carbon reduction strategy that best suits its own size in the long run.
CBAM is a challenge, but is also an opportunity for the industry to be transformed and redefined. If we can reduce the carbon emissions of countless fasteners around the world, we can transform ourselves from manufacturers into connectors to sustainability,” says Wang.

Under his leadership, Hu Pao has started to work with customers to design low-carbon products and develop alternative materials. “I hope to build a ‘Low Carbon Smart Factory Demo Base,’ and am also developing a more convenient carbon emission statistics system. In the future, I’d like to invite industry partners to set up a ‘Sustainability Alliance,’ so as to attract more people (especially young people) to change the fastener industry. Small screws support the world’s operation. If you are willing to do so, you can join us to transform the fastener industry into one that thrives with the environment and that you are proud to be a part of,” says Wang.

What will you think of first when it comes to the fastener industry? Pollution? Or a sooty workplace? How can an industry that has never been associated with environmental protection go green? Bill Wang, GM of Hu Pao Industries, who has been in the fasteneer industry for over  20 years, points out that the key lies in “Net Zero”. Net Zero is a process of minimizing carbon emissions and offsetting them with carbon credits or carbon absorption. It sounds simple, but is an important industrial revolution for the fastener industry to enhance the competitiveness, coexist with the environment, and create a circular economy in the future.

Net Zero => Sustainable Coexistence

In order to reverse the public's stereotype of dirty screw factories, GM Wang, who fully believes that enterprises should not only focus on profits but also bear environmental & social responsibilities, began to promote “net zero” in the fastener industry many years ago, and started with his own factory expansion to create a comfortable and safe workplace with low carbon emissions for all employees. He thinks that the disaters caused by climate change have become more serious than ever, and if people don't do something, they are bound to affect our future generations. “Net zero can’t be just a lip service and change can only be made by breaking old rules,” says Wang. Such ideas can be implemented in fastener factories through 5S management, lean process management, digital carbon emission management, or improving high carbon emissions through organizations. He thinks that the spirit of net zero is sustainable coexistence, not to comply with regulations, but to demonstrate a company's commitment to environmental protection and find a carbon reduction strategy that best suits its own size in the long run.

Not About Size! Corporate Value Lies on Respect to the Environment

The essence of a green enterprise lies on its respect to the environment. Besides eye-catching carbon reduction figures, it should further create a sense of fulfillment for employees, a sense of trust for customers, and a sense of coexistence with the community. Meanwhile, building a company that everyone can be proud of through carbon reduction to enhance the product value is also Wang's top consideration while making decisions. Although the fastener industry is not as large-scale as other industries, each fastener is the key to supporting the global industries. ”CBAM is a challenge, but is also an opportunity for the industry to be transformed and redefined. If we can reduce the carbon emissions of countless fasteners around the world, we can transform ourselves from manufacturers into connectors to sustainability," says Wang.

Transforming Net Zero into Corporate Culture

Making net zero a part of his corporate culture, Wang has introduced a digital energy management system, solar panels, equipment upgrade, ISO carbon inventories, and lubricant recycling system into the corporate management. On the other hand, he also planted trees, provided veggie meals for employees, and invited supply chain partners to reduce carbon footprints, putting the concept of net zero into practice in lives and work. I once visited a cosmetics factory and was surprised at how clearly they showed their carbon footprints on products. The fastener industry must keep pace with the predecessors' advances in digitization and energy efficiency management, and have the spirit of sustainability internalized.Transparent carbon info is what the fastener industry lacks the most, and understanding CBAM specifications is part of a concerted effort," says Wang.

Carbon Reduction Determines Future Order Taking

In response to CBAM and U.S. carbon reduction system,
the disclosure of carbon emissions will become a new criterion in addition to price if one wants to compete for orders from large factories. Wang thinks that carbon reduction is a way to reducing costs with quantifiable benefits on one hand, and helping enterprises transform towards branding and innovation on the other hand. Under his leadership, Hu Pao has started to work with customers to design low-carbon products and develop alternative materials.

He encourages the industry get to know themselves by carbon inventory, setting up task forces, introducing management systems like ISO14064 and ISO50001, not going it alone, and making good use of associations, industry forums and official/external consulting platforms to obtain more subsidies or resources. "I hope to build a ‘Low Carbon Smart Factory Demo Base’, and am also developing a more convenient carbon emission statistics system. In the future, I’d like to invite industry partners to set up a ‘Sustainability Alliance’, so as to attract more people (especially young people) to change the fastener industry. Small screws support the world's operation. If you are willing to do so, you can join us to transform the fastener industry into one that thrives with the environment and that you are proud to be a part of,” says Wang.

Hu Pao Industries, a professional nut manufacturer in Taiwan active in introducing the concepts of ESG sustainability and net-zero transformationand aiming to achieve carbon neutrality and become a low-carbon solution provider, has recently participated in the SBIR program promoted by Tainan City Government to encourage SMEs to carry out research on industrial technology and product innovation and has been awarded one of the Best 10 performers among the 55 grant receivers in 2024. Hu Pao General Manager Bill Wang attended the awarding ceremony on Nov./25/2024 at WinWin Innovation & Incubation Base in Xinying (Tainan) and presented to Tainan City Mayor Wei-Che Huang the award-winning “Carbon Reduction Savior- Waste Oil Recycling Trough”.

Reducing the pressure of new product development, promoting technological innovation, expanding markets, establishing alliances, enhancing corporate image and brand value, and strengthening growth potential are the ultimate goals of Hu Pao's participation in the program. In order to obtain the max. grant of NT$1 million per case, Hu Pao actively attended the briefing sessions and drew up the plan, prepared required documents and integrated internal resources to submit for review, strengthened the external cooperation, and continuously improved and adjusted the plan during the implementation to make it pass the verification in the end.
 

Carbon Reduction Savior- Waste Oil Recycling Trough Realizes Resource Recycling

Waste oil generated from production lines will have a great impact on the environment if it is not properly treated. The Waste Oil Recycling Trough introduced in Hu Pao's production lines converts waste oil into reusable low carbon emission lubricant through innovative technology, effectively reducing the impact of waste oiland carbon emission on the environment, lowering raw material costs, and realizing the purpose of recycling and reusing resources.

“We’ve seamlessly integrated the Waste Oil Recycling Trough into the production lines to streamline operations and improve resource efficiency. We also monitor the equipment data in real time through the Internet, which is then sent to the ERP system for the management to make accurate decisions. In addition, staff training has been strengthened to familiarize them with equipment operation and make them understand the environmental benefits. In this way, not only will our carbon emissions meet int’l standards to enhance competitiveness, but we will also be able to respond to possible policy changes after the implementation of CBAM. This is also an important step for us to continuously attract sustainability partners to create long term economic benefits,” says Hu Pao G.M. Wang.

Taking the Lead and Encouraging the Industry to Lower Carbon Emission Together

Hu Pao winning the award is exemplary for other small and resource-constrained enterprises, and will surely have a positive effect on encouraging carbon reduction in the industry. It is worthwhile for the industry to learn from Hu Pao in terms of how to effectively conduct carbon inventory and data management, improve resource efficiency and reduce operating costs, respond to CBAM reporting and environmental regulations, the exchange of experience and cooperation in cross-sector alliances and platforms, and how to enhance its image and attract customers through carbon reduction measures.

As the only fastener enterprise in Tainan in 2024 to receive the award, G.M.Wang noted, “The establishment of a carbon inventory mechanism and calculation, upgrading to high-efficiency and low-energy-consumption equipment & manufacturing, shortening transportation distances from suppliers, switching to renewable energy, reporting in accordance with CBAM, strengthening technology and material R&D, and reinforcing employee training and carbon awareness are definitely the future directions Taiwan fastener industry should focus on.”

Besides SBIR, Hu Pao has also received grants from the “Low Carbon and Smart Upgrade and Transformation Counseling Program for Large and Small Manufacturers”, the “Low-Carbon Counseling Program for Small and Medium Manufacturers”, the “Industrial Energy Saving Counseling & Efficiency Improvement Program”, and the “Smart Carbon Reduction Subsidy Program”.

ESG Sustainability & Net Zero by 2050

Under the principle of sustainability, Hu Pao has set for itself a carbon reduction target of 60% by 2032, 80% by 2042, and net zero by 2050. It has also introduced the ISO50001 energy management system, purchased low-carbon materials, used reusable resources, developed green energy concepts, emphasized on environmental protection and social responsibility, provided free veggie lunches for employees, and joined “Zero⁺ College”.

It has been responding to CBAM with proactive strategies and forward-thinking. In addition to obtaining the ISO 14064-1:2018, it has continued to monitor carbon emissions data, increase employee participation in carbon reduction, invest in new technologies/equipment, strengthen cooperation among industry, government, and academia, and participate in int’l exhibitions, so as to let customers know its efforts in carbon reduction.

“Taiwanese companies need to be more proactive in responding to geopolitical risks, global economic uncertainties, environmental policy requirements, and the need for technological innovation. Only by adjusting supply chain strategies, strengthening technology R&D, and enhancing the added value of products can they remain competitive in the fierce int’l market,” says G. M. Wang.

Following the previous certifications of D&B, IATF 16949, ISO 9001:2015, and Taiwan Mittelstand Award, Taiwanese customized automotive, special, and lock nuts manufacturer, Hu Pao Industries Co., Ltd. has again obtained the ISO 14064-1:2018 certification for quantification and reporting of greenhouse gas emissions and removals, which is another step forward for its substantial progress towards ESG compliance and becoming a green sustainable fastener enterprise. Getting this certification is also an indirect way for Hu Pao to announce to its global customers that it’s been ready to move towards low carbon manufacturing.

 

Taking Almost a Year &

Being the 1st Among Others to Complete GHG Inventory Verification

     Taiwanese fasteners are mostly exported to Europe and the U.S. With the increasing concern of customers on energy saving and carbon reduction as well as the imminent implementation of EU’s Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) in 2026, the carbon emission control of enterprises has become an important assessment factor for the smooth entry of future products into the local market, and the ISO 14064-1:2018 is the 1st step to help enterprises understand their carbon emission status. Recognizing the importance of net-zero carbon emissions to corporate sustainability, Hu Pao is leading the industry in initiating GHG Inventory verification in 2021, with senior executives directly involved in cross-departmental integration and focusing on direct emissions, indirect energy emissions and other indirect emissions to compile relevant data and certificates under specifications and produce the organization’s final greenhouse gas emission report, emission inventory and inventory procedure documents, clearly quantifying the organization’s carbon footprint from raw materials to shipments. In April 2023, it officially obtained the ISO 14064-1:2018 certification from Ares International, a third-party certification body.

 

     “We spent a lot of time and manpower collecting the necessary info for certification. During the period, we actively identified the sources of carbon emissions in our factory and strengthened energy saving and carbon reduction in various aspects, such as the introduction of static-electricity waste oil recycling system, installation of smart meters on forming machines, introduction of PM2.5 detection, ERP system integration, improvement of factory energy management according to ISO 50001, data digitalization, free vegetable lunch for employees, etc. I also joined Zero+ College and CJCU Net Zero Transformation Alliance to observe and learn how the 2nd generation of companies are saving energy and reducing carbon emissions. ESG is a confirmed way forward for Hu Pao and reducing carbon emissions is an important part of that. By combining this vision with the company’s goals and allowing employees to fully understand and work together, and at a time when many industry players are clearly lagging behind other industries, Hu Pao takes the lead to set the example, not only enabling us to significantly increase our competitiveness in the market, but also gaining access to the EU market when the carbon tax kicks in,” said Hu Pao General Manager Bill Wang.

 

“Making Hay While the Sun Shines”

Net Zero Carbon Emission as the Ultimate Goal

     In addition to making a profit, Hu Pao constantly reminds itself of what kind of environment it can leave behind for future generations. Achieving ISO 14064-1:2018 is not only a demonstration of its commitment to customers, but it’ll also be a great help to its future development towards ESG. Even though Hu Pao has already submitted a thick ISO 14064-1:2018 report and obtained the certification, it has not stopped collecting carbon emission data to strengthen its improvement. It continues to record carbon emission data every month and hopes to collect the coefficients for 3 years, and then conduct the audit and certification again next year. “After passing the certification, we’ll continue to improve plant efficiency, increase quality & yield, optimize processes, enhance digitalization, and reduce energy waste. In addition to CBAM, the U.S. may also initiate carbon tax measures in 2024. However, we’re already prepared for that. This year we are planning to participate in many US exhibitions to expand our presence there and to let more overseas customers know about our efforts to save energy and reduce carbon emissions, as well as to contribute to the sustainability of the planet,” said Wang. As a model of energy saving and carbon reduction in Taiwan fastener industry, Hu Pao hopes that more industry players can join the ranks and contribute to the Earth. It suggests that before starting GHG inventory verification, it is necessary to involve senior personnel, form a cross-departmental team, familiarize members with regulations, use digital automation tools (e.g. ERP, carbon emission software), and establish int./ext. auditing mechanisms in order to promote it smoothly. “In the future if one wants to enter the European or U.S. markets, carbon reduction is definitely the way to go. Although the process will add lots of intangible investment costs, if one can achieve it through innovative processes without raising costs, that’s where the advantage exists. Taiwan is the 3rd largest fastener producer in the world, but it is highly export-oriented. As energy saving and carbon reduction has become a global industry phenomenon, Taiwan industry must keep up in this elimination race and make good use of government subsidies. Hu Pao will also work with up/mid/downstream collaborators to make our best efforts to contribute to global climate change, energy conservation, and carbon reduction,” said Wang.
