Environmental Protection Management and Implementation
The company has established a relatively comprehensive environmental protection management system, along with related inspection procedures and operating procedures, which have been effectively implemented. The company's Safety and Environmental Protection Department is subordinate to the Environmental Protection Office and Sewage Treatment Station. The Environmental Protection Office is primarily responsible for overseeing the daily environmental protection (primarily air pollutants) of production departments and auxiliary departments, and implementing new environmental policies, standards, documents, and notifications from various levels of regulatory authorities at the city and county levels. The Sewage Treatment Station is mainly responsible for collecting and treating production and domestic sewage, conducting comprehensive tracking testing, and ensuring that the sewage treatment facilities operate normally and that the treated water meets discharge standards.

TuoXin Pharmaceutical and its subsidiary Xinxiang Pharmaceutical have obtained a "Discharge Permit" in accordance with relevant laws and regulations. The company has established an environmental management system and has passed ISO14001 environmental management system certification. In 2019, the Xinxiang Branch of the Ecological Environment Bureau of Henan Province conducted an inspection and evaluation of the company and its subsidiary Xinxiang Pharmaceutical based on the "Henan Provincial Enterprise Environmental Protection Credit Evaluation Management Measures". Based on their past environmental compliance, the company and its subsidiary were recognized as environmentally trustworthy units. At the same time, in the 2019 Hainan Pharmaceutical Industry Green Development Research and Evaluation Activity organized by the Henan Pharmaceutical Industry Green Development Association, the company and its subsidiary Xinxiang Pharmaceutical ranked eighth and third in the industry, respectively.

Future Environmental Protection Plans
In addition, the company plans to continue to upgrade its waste gas treatment system on the premises. Based on the RCO and activated carbon absorption devices, an additional RTO device will be added to further reduce pollutant emissions. The subsidiary Xinxiang Pharmaceutical plans to relocate production to the Yanjin Plant in Yanjin County. The organic waste gas at the Yanjin Plant will adopt a multi-stage treatment at the front end + advanced RTO treatment device at the end to greatly reduce the discharge of pollutants per unit product.
