WUSU BREWERY ADDS THREENATIONAL-LEVEL “GREENFACTORIES” FURTHER RECOGNIZED
FOR GREEN BREWING PRACTICES
On February 5 2026 the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology released the
list of 2025 Green Factories and Green Industrial Parks. Xinjiang Wusu Brewery Co. Ltd.(“Wusu Brewery”) won three national-level “Green Factories” certifications at one stroke
namely Xinjiang Wusu Brewery (Aksu) Co. Ltd. Xinjiang Wusu Brewery (Korla) Co. Ltd.and Xinjiang Wusu Brewery (Wusu) Co. Ltd. demonstrating the Company’s systematic
achievements in green manufacturing and sustainable development.Wusu Brewery integrates the concept of green brewing throughout its entire production
and operation process effectively reducing carbon emissions through technological
transformation energy optimization and resource recycling. At the Aksu Brewery
technology upgrading such as upgrades to the mashing system and low-nitrogen
combustion retrofits for the boilers have continuously lowered energy consumption
while 100% recovery of carbon dioxide generated during fermentation has eliminated
the need for external CO2 procurement significantly reducing the brewery’s carbon
emissions intensity. Additionally the brewery achieves 100% recovery of by-products
such as spent grain and waste yeast for resource utilization alongside full recycling of
solid waste such as broken glass bottles to promote a circular economy model.The Korla Brewery adopts lightweight glass bottles containing over 60% recycled
materials in packaging paired with eco-friendly inks and PVC-free labels and caps to
maximize the reduction of environmental pollution caused by materials aligning with
the goal of achieving 100% recyclable renewable and biodegradable packaging by
2030.
The Wusu Brewery has strengthened energy management through steam pipeline
upgrades comprehensive energy-saving retrofits high-efficiency lighting and solar-
powered streetlights reducing energy consumption. The energy consumption per unit of
product has reached the advanced level specified in the Norm of Energy Consumption
per Unit Production of Beer (GB 32047-2015).From 2015 to 2025 the three breweries (Aksu Wusu and Korla) achieved a 57%
reduction in thermal energy consumption per hl of beer brewing cumulatively cutting
carbon emissions by approximately 190000 tons. At present Wusu Brewery has
achieved 100% green electricity use across all breweries. By advancing green brewing
and technological transformation in parallel the Company has made positive progress
in improving energy efficiency and reducing environmental impact realizing the
coordinated growth of environmental and operational benefits.ABOUT THE REPORT KEY ESG PERFORMANCE PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE ABOUT US SIX TTZAB AMBITIONS KEY FOCUS AREAS APPENDIX 20

help realize the Company’s strategic goal of a ZERO Farming Footprint.Regarding the resource utilization of by-products the base fully
utilizes the cluster advantages of the Foshan Shuidu Beverage andFood Industrial Park. Adopting a model of “enterprise-led + park-widecollaboration” it systematically advances the recovery of resources and
circular utilization of brewing by-products. By-products generated during
production such as spent grains and yeast are transferred by the base to
specialized institutions for resource processing. These are converted into
feed ingredients and reintroduced into feed ingredients and reintroduced
into the agricultural and feed industry chains “turning waste into treasure”.This practice not only establishes a sustainable agricultural nutrient cycle
system improves resource utilization efficiency and reduces final waste
disposal volume but also provides a replicable pathway of industrial
collaboration for Foshan’s “Zero-Waste City” initiative.The by-product recycling practice at the base represents a successful
attempt to organically link industrial production systems with agriculturalecosystems. It not only embodies the circular concept of “resource-products-renewable resources” in sustainable agriculture but also provides

TRANSFORMING PACKAGING
MATERIALS INTO RESOURCES –
A NEW EXPLORATION OF THE
CIRCULAR ECONOMY
The Company regards the standardized management and resource
utilization of packaging materials as a key component in developing
the circular economy and building a green packaging system
advancing a full-chain management system covering collection
regeneration and recycling. We comprehensively recycle packaging
materials such as glass debris recyclable glass bottles plastic pallets
plastic crates partitions and kegs. Aluminum scraps generated during
the production process are remelted and regenerated for the production
of recycled cans achieving circular use. In 2025 the Company recycled
a total of 20927.19 tons of waste cartons.Regarding glass packaging recycling all glass debris generated during
the production process is uniformly collected and entirely transferred to
professional recyclers and existing glass bottle suppliers for remelting.As a high-quality recyclable raw material the remelting of glass debris
not only ensures the stable quality of new glass bottles but also
significantly reduces production energy consumption and decreases the
demand for virgin mineral resources such as quartz sand and soda ash.This approach reduces resource consumption and the environmental
burden at the source systematically enhancing the lifecycle circular
efficiency of glass packaging. In 2025 Foshan Brewery implemented
an automatic glass debris collection project further improving the
efficiency and standardized management level of glass debris recycling
and promoted this resource utilization. This year the Company recycled
a total of 30000 tons of glass debris reducing carbon emissions by
approximately 23900 tons. In addition the recycling of glass debris
also reduces the volume of glass waste entering landfills effectively
alleviating the pressure of solid waste treatment.ABOUT THE REPORT KEY ESG PERFORMANCE PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE ABOUT US SIX TTZAB AMBITIONS KEY FOCUS AREAS APPENDIX 30

the sustainable use of water resources. The Company actively promotes the recycling of water resources in
breweries and promotes the construction and operation of a reuse system for reclaimed water. The reuse of
reclaimed water in the breweries for greening toilet flushing and equipment cooling can reduce the intake of
fresh water while decreasing wastewater discharge and improve the reuse efficiency of water resources. In

The National Responsible Drinking Awareness Week is an industry public welfare
initiative launched by the China Alcoholic Drinks Association. Since 2015 the China
Alcoholic Drinks Association has organized the responsible drinking awareness
activities for ten consecutive years around the three themes of “no drunk driving” “nounderage drinking” and “drinking moderately”. The Awareness Week’s philosophy
aligns closely with Chongqing Brewery’s sustainability initiatives making it among
the earliest enterprises to engage deeply through multi-channel promotion strategies.Over the past decade the initiative has expanded its coverage to 500 million people
in 563 cities and evolved into a nationwide movement.This year marks Chongqing Brewery’s 10th consecutive participation in the Awareness
Week where it has maximized omnichannel platforms (online and offline). By taking
advantage of its channels and scenarios the Company integrated the concept of
responsible drinking into the daily experience of on-site spectators and the public.In terms of online communication we invited 10 brand ambassadors of Carlsberg
Kronenbourg 1664 Tuborg Wusu Chongqing WFSM and DALI to jointly shoot
and release responsible drinking initiative videos and leveraged the influence of
public figures to spread the awareness of drinking responsibility. We also displayed
responsible drinking reminders on beer product search and browsing pages across
mainstream platforms such as Taobao JD Douyin Meituan and Ele.me so that
these reminders would be presented at the point of consumer decision-making.According to statistics the total impressions from such online advertising campaigns
have exceeded 2 million.In terms of offline interactions we advocated responsible drinking at sports
events and food service outlets. During the Chongqing City Football League
(“Yu Chao”) the Company displayed a 15-meter banner promoting responsible
drinking at the spectator stands of the Hechuan Sports Center. During the Urumqi
International Marathon the Company promoted responsible drinking. At the food
service terminals the Company organized direct interactions with consumers in
31 restaurants. Additionally the Company organized the Dali Brewery Open Day
campaign and invited 160 military veterans to visit the brewery. Through on-site
interaction and communication the Company further promoted the concept of
responsible drinking and enhanced the influence of the public welfare initiative.ABOUT THE REPORT KEY ESG PERFORMANCE PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE ABOUT US SIX TTZAB AMBITIONS KEY FOCUS AREAS APPENDIX 39

Workplace Safety Measures
Standardized Management of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
The Company has established a comprehensive management system for personal protective equipment ensuring that
employees in relevant positions are adequately provided with personal protective equipment that meets national standards.Prominent signage is posted at workstations and area entrances to clearly indicate the requirements for PPE usage. Regular
inspections are conducted to monitor employees’ compliance with PPE wearing regulations. In addition the proper use
of PPE is incorporated into the Company’s annual safety training program. Through continuous education and practical
exercises the Company ensures the effective implementation of all occupational health and safety protection measures
thereby safeguarding employees’ operational safety.Systematic Workplace Safety Check
The Company attaches great importance to the safety production environment management of our breweries strictly
enforcing safety standards and effectively advancing daily safety patrols and the rectification of potential hazards. Based
on the health and safety related requirements issued by SPRINT the Group’s online system we regularly conduct self-
assessments of safety standards to accurately identify deficiencies and implement targeted improvements. In 2025 the
completion rate of the Group’s safety priority items listed in the SPRINT system reached 100% covering all breweries
logistics and administrative and sales units. Compliance rates for key standards including the Carlsberg LSR contractor
management incident reporting and management work permit systems and temporary employee management also
achieved 100%. To further strengthen on-site risk control the Company continues to encourage management at all levels to
engage in frontline safety inspections. In 2025 a total of 150153 on-site safety patrol visits were completed by supervisory-
level employees across the Company.Improving In-Plant Traffic Safety
Focusing on logistics areas which are the key zones with concentrated risks the highest accident rates and severity we have
actively implemented the advanced “Three-Zone Traffic Division” concept. This approach divides the brewery into pedestrian-
restricted zones vehicle-restricted zones and shared pedestrian-vehicle zones minimizing the scope of shared zones as much
as possible. By applying spatiotemporal isolation measures and active pedestrian-vehicle defense technologies we aim to
eliminate traffic safety hazards at the source. Currently the “Three-Zone Traffic Management” has been fully implemented
in the logistics areas of all of our breweries in the China region significantly improving safety levels in pedestrian-vehicle
interactions within the zone.Construction of the Safety Training System
To systematically enhance employees’ safety skills and emergency response capabilities the Company has innovatively
established the EHS Academy training platform which integrates both theoretical knowledge and hands-on practice.This system upgrades traditional safety education by incorporating immersive scenario-based training such as VR safety
simulations fall protection for working at heights and operations in confined spaces. Through experiential and interactive
learning methods the program strengthens employees’ ability to identify and respond to potential risks. It serves as one of
the core initiatives in advancing the Company’s safety culture and achieving the ZERO Accident ambition.ABOUT THE REPORT KEY ESG PERFORMANCE PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE ABOUT US SIX TTZAB AMBITIONS KEY FOCUS AREAS APPENDIX 43
