Cainiao Supply Chain Selected for National Recycled Resources Recovery System Pilot Program: Logistics Giant Empowers a New Model for Waste Appliance Recycling

Recently, the Ministry of Commerce website announced the evaluation results for pilot cities and enterprises in the recycled resources recovery system, with Hangzhou Cainiao Supply Chain Management Co., Ltd. successfully selected as the only logistics company included. This marks a profound transformation in China's waste appliance recycling industry. Leveraging its robust logistics network and advanced recycling technologies, Cainiao Supply Chain will contribute to building a comprehensive recycled resources recovery system.

China's appliance industry is transitioning from an "incremental era" to an "era of both incremental and stock growth." The concentrated release of appliance replacement demand has led to a sharp increase in the number of waste appliances. According to industry associations, the total amount of waste appliances recycled in China in 2023 reached 4.5 million tons. However, only about 20% of waste appliances are currently recycled through formal channels for environmentally friendly dismantling and reuse. This not only causes significant resource waste but also poses a severe challenge to environmental protection.

To address this issue, in 2024, the Ministry of Commerce and eight other ministries jointly issued the "Notice on Improving the Recycling System for Waste Electrical Appliances, Furniture, and Other Recyclable Resources," aiming to accelerate the construction of a comprehensive recycled resources recovery system. Following the notice, the Ministry of Commerce, together with relevant departments, organized experts to rigorously evaluate the applications from various cities and enterprises. Cainiao Supply Chain's selection fully affirms its contribution and strength in the waste appliance recycling field.

As a leading logistics company, Cainiao Supply Chain possesses a nationwide direct-operated appliance and home furnishing warehousing and distribution network, providing comprehensive services to businesses across the industry, including appointment delivery, door-to-door delivery, integrated delivery and installation, and new-for-old exchange and appliance recycling. Its appliance recycling business is particularly prominent, with over 60 waste appliance collection warehouses nationwide, covering over 2,800 districts and counties and encompassing various major appliances such as televisions, refrigerators, washing machines, and air conditioners.

Unlike companies primarily engaged in waste appliance dismantling, Cainiao Supply Chain possesses a unique advantage in major appliance recycling. Relying on its self-built national warehousing and distribution network, it can retrieve old appliances from users' homes while delivering new ones, temporarily storing them in collection warehouses. Once a sufficient quantity of waste appliances accumulates in the collection warehouses, they are uniformly shipped to nearby appliance dismantling plants for dismantling and recycling. This model effectively improves recycling efficiency, reduces logistics costs, and minimizes losses in intermediate processes.

To better serve consumers, Cainiao Supply Chain offers both integrated delivery and pick-up and separate delivery and pick-up service models, allowing consumers to choose based on their needs. Furthermore, Cainiao Supply Chain has independently developed an appliance recycling operation system and a waste appliance traceability monitoring system, providing real-time online management of recycled waste appliances to ensure they do not enter the secondary market, thereby avoiding potential environmental risks and safety hazards.

Thanks to the impetus of the national trade-in policy, Cainiao Supply Chain's appliance recycling business volume has continued to grow. Key indicators such as consumer satisfaction, timely recycling rate, on-site dismantling standards, and NPS (Net Promoter Score) remain at the industry-leading level. This reflects the service quality and efficiency of Cainiao Supply Chain in the waste appliance recycling field and provides strong support for its selection as a national recycled resources recovery system pilot.

Cainiao Supply Chain's successful selection is no accident. Its strong logistics network, advanced management system, and commitment to environmental protection have made it a leader in the waste appliance recycling field. By integrating its logistics advantages, Cainiao Supply Chain has built a highly efficient, transparent, and traceable appliance recycling system, effectively addressing the challenges of difficult waste appliance recycling and irregular processing.

In the future, Cainiao Supply Chain will continue to use this pilot program as an opportunity to further improve the recycled resources recovery system and actively explore more advanced recycling technologies and management models. Simultaneously, Cainiao Supply Chain will collaborate with more partners to jointly promote the development of China's waste appliance recycling industry and contribute to building a green and environmentally friendly society. Cainiao Supply Chain's efforts have not only enhanced consumer experience but also set a benchmark for the entire industry, providing guidance and reference for other companies.

Cainiao Supply Chain's selection also reflects the government's high regard for environmental protection and its determination to build a recycled resources recovery system. The government has introduced a series of policies and measures to encourage and support enterprises in actively participating in waste appliance recycling and promoting healthy industry development. Through the improvement of relevant policies and regulations, strengthening supervision, and vigorously promoting advanced technologies, China's waste appliance recycling industry is expected to have a brighter future.

With the exemplary role of leading companies like Cainiao Supply Chain, more enterprises will actively participate in the recycled resources recovery system, jointly promoting the circular utilization of resources and reducing environmental pollution. This is not only beneficial for environmental protection but also for resource conservation and promoting sustainable economic development.

Cainiao Supply Chain's success also provides a reference for other industries. In other areas, such as the recycling of waste electronic products and plastics, the experience of Cainiao Supply Chain can be leveraged to build efficient recycling systems and promote the circular utilization of resources. This will have a positive impact on the national circular utilization of resources and environmental protection.

In conclusion, Cainiao Supply Chain's selection for the national recycled resources recovery system pilot program is not only an affirmation of its own strength but also a guide for the future direction of the industry. In the future, we expect Cainiao Supply Chain to continue to leverage its advantages to support the construction of China's recycled resources recovery system and contribute greater strength to building a green and environmentally friendly society. We also expect more enterprises to actively participate and jointly create a more comprehensive and efficient recycled resources recovery system to contribute to achieving sustainable development goals. This is not only a corporate responsibility but also a social responsibility. Through joint efforts, we believe we can build a better future.
