2025-07-10
Pantum, a global innovator in printing solutions, celebrates a milestone in sustainability as its parent company Ninestar achieves an MSCI ESG "A" rating—a testament to its dedicated environmental, social, and governance practices. As the flagship brand of Ninestar Group, Pantum integrates ESG principles across its operations, products, and global partnerships.
Strategic Environmental Stewardship
Aligned with Ninestar's goal to slash carbon emissions by 50% by 2030, Pantum has embedded sustainability in its product lifecycle through three core strategies:
Carbon Reduction
Pantum facilities utilize Ninestar's 6.64 million kWh annual solar capacity—up 208% year over year—to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Many of Pantum's printers hold Energy Star certification and BSI carbon footprint accreditation, reinforcing its commitment to energy efficiency.
By streamlining logistics and promoting digital workflows, Pantum has reduced transportation emissions and paper waste.
Resource Conservation
Utilizing Ninestar's advanced wastewater treatment technology, which achieved a remarkable group-wide water saving of 47,131 tons in 2024, Pantum's manufacturing sites have established comprehensive water recycling systems to minimize consumption.
In material usage, Ninestar upholds the two principles of reduction and non-hazardousness and has deployed 17,171 tons of sustainable packaging materials. In step with its parent company, Pantum rigorously enforces green product standards like RoHS and REACH. It sources compliant raw materials and strictly regulates the use of chemicals such as lead, cadmium, mercury, and hexavalent chromium.
Durable Product Design
The Efficient Pro Series exemplifies durability with all-metal frames, a 25,000-page drum unit lifetime, and an 11,000-page toner capacity, significantly reducing the frequency of replacements. Certified by the CEPREI Laboratory to print 200,000 pages with a jam rate below 0.02‰*, these printers offer reliable performance over an extended lifespan.
"Every Pantum printer embodies decarbonization," stated Gary Chen, Deputy Director of Product & Technology at Pantum. "Sustainability is inherent in our business fabric—from energy-efficient designs to circular supply chains."
Global Social Responsibility
Pantum firmly believes in the power of diversity and inclusivity, implementing Ninestar's "People-First" philosophy in both its workforce and the communities it serves.
Pantum established a diverse and inclusive workplace, with employees representing 23 countries and regions. This diversity enriches the company's culture, fosters innovation, and enables it to better understand and meet the needs of its global customers.
In 2024, Pantum actively participated in the Group's safety training initiative, invested over 250,000 dollars in work safety, and provided 2,444 hours of safety training to all employees. This initiative resulted in zero production accidents, demonstrating Pantum's unwavering commitment to safeguarding workforce well-being.
Beyond the workplace, Pantum is dedicated to bridging the digital divide and empowering communities through technology. It donated printers to underserved schools to enhance digital equity, leveraging technology to empower education and opportunity.
Ethical Governance and Product Integrity
Pantum upholds Ninestar's A-rated governance framework to ensure ethical business practices, compliance with regulations, and long-term trust among its stakeholders.
The brand has established robust risk management systems, including strict anti-corruption policies, anonymous reporting channels, and integrity training for employees and partners.
Pantum's commitment to ethical governance is further reinforced by its ISO 27001:2022-certified information security management system to ensure the confidentiality of users' data, safeguarding their trust and privacy.
Backed by Ninestar's unwavering support, Pantum is committed to embedding ESG strategies deeper into its daily operations. Building on its full autonomy over core printer technologies rooted in 18-year independent R&D, Pantum will continue to drive innovation, designing high-performance, eco-friendly products that transform ESG compliance into a tangible competitive edge, with the aim to create a more sustainable future for its users, employees, partners, and the planet.
