Ninestar has released its 2024 ESG report, which highlights major achievements in environmental sustainability, social responsibility, and corporate governance.
This follows the company being awarded an upgraded A rating for its ESG performance. Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI) gave this independent recognition to reflect the company’s sustained progress in environmental stewardship, social responsibility, and corporate governance.
As a leader in the global printer and imaging supplies industry, Ninestar continues to set the pace with green innovation, operational excellence, a deep respect for people, and making a measurable social impact.
In 2024, Ninestar remanufactured more than 20.94 million toner and inkjet cartridges, one of the largest such operations in the world. This large-scale circular economy initiative diverted thousands of tons of plastic and e-waste from landfills while reducing the carbon footprint for millions of users worldwide.
Packaging innovation also advanced significantly across key product lines. It has replaced traditional plastic blister packs with recyclable, degradable materials of 17,171 tons in 2024, delivering eco-conscious solutions for distributors and end users alike.
Cleaner operations are achieved by expanded rooftop solar infrastructure, capable of generating up to 6.6472 million kWh of clean electricity annually to power the production lines.
Respecting and empowering employees remains central to Ninestar’s ESG strategy. In 2024, the company invested RMB 3.2 million in the employee’s training and education, with 10,216 employees participating, delivering 81,525 training hours in total.
Just as importantly, the company maintained an impeccable safety record. During the reporting period, there were:
-zero fatalities, fires, explosions, or major accidents
-no accidents involving special equipment
-no serious injuries or industrial accidents
-zero incidence of occupational diseases
This outstanding performance reflects a proactive safety culture supported by rigorous training, real-time risk controls, and continuous improvement across operations.
Ninestar established a board-level ESG Steering Committee to enhance oversight and drive accountability. The company aligned its ESG disclosures with leading international standards, including GRI and TCFD. It achieved a significant milestone by improving its authoritative ESG rating from BBB to A.
This upgrade reflects independent recognition of Ninestar’s progress in environmental performance, social responsibility, and risk management. It strengthens confidence among global partners and affirms the company’s standing as a responsible and forward-thinking industry leader.
