This certification is a voluntary international system that verifies the sustainability of bio-based and recycled raw materials and the transparency of the entire supply chain. To obtain this certification, facilities must pass rigorous inspection and verification standards covering the entire process from raw material procurement to production processes and final products. This certification marks Hankook Tire's fourth achievement, following the Geumsan Plant, which became the first in the industry to receive certification in 2021, the Lakalmas Plant in Hungary in 2023, and the Daejeon Plant in 2025.

By expanding the certification scope to include its China production base, Hankook Tire has created an opportunity to strengthen its global eco-friendly production system spanning Asia and Europe. According to Hankook Tire, the Jiaxing Plant has strengthened its sustainable manufacturing competitiveness based on the transition to eco-friendly raw materials and optimization of production processes. The plant has also established a stable production foundation for products applying sustainable raw materials by expanding the application of bio and recycled materials and operating a quality management system based on the Mass Balance approach.
