Circular economy implementation blueprint
To facilitate sustainable use of resources and move towards circular economy, Yulon Motor has devised a resource recycling and reuse implementation plan to enable material sustainable circulation and waste reclamation in various stages from sourcing, waste production to recovery.
Value enhancement of recycled IT materials
We have the Company’s obsolete public computers cleaned up, repaired and reset by the IT personnel, and the body parts changed, cleaned and disinfected to ensure the quality. These computers are then put up at an auction for employees at lower prices, and an additional hard disk drive for better performance is optional with an extra charge. A 1-month warranty is also included. Through this, we avoid the waste of obsolete company computers and offer a good opportunity for employees with needs to purchase a generalpurpose computer. The numbers of computers circulated in each year are stated below:
Instances of Sluggish Material and Scrap Disposal Actions and Benefits in 2022
Reduction in waste treatment cost
Instances on reduction of polluted process waste (sludge and waste paint)
-
Waste paint is placed in a shelter house to protect it from being exposed to the rain, which may bring it more weight. The water content is controlled to 10% or below prior to clearance.
-
A waste dryer is used to reduce the water content of the sludge and lessen its weight.
Reselling waste packaging materials for reuse in sales and services
We turned the original packages of incoming parts included in the following categories into those of the after-sales parts to eliminate waste of packaging materials:
-
Paper angle bead
-
Plywood
-
Plastic pallet

Pallet carbon box
Other resource recycling and reuse cases
