On July 8, 2026, the opening ceremony of 2026 Summer Care Program hosted by Ningbo Eastsun Paper Products Co., Ltd. was successfully held at Zhangqi No.2 School, under the overall coordination and guidance of Cixi Working Committee on Children and Teenagers and Zhangqi Sub-district Working Committee on Children and Teenagers. The summer care program receives 36 school-age children of our staff, with nearly 70 students, parents and distinguished leaders attending the opening event. Rooted in the company’s comprehensive ESG sustainable development strategy, this program mainly targets the Social pillar of ESG, optimizes the employee welfare system, solves the summer childcare challenge of dual-income workers, and demonstrates the social responsibility and long-term sustainable development vision of local private manufacturers.

Many honored guests took seats on the rostrum for the ceremony, including national model worker Feng Liben, Xu Liyun (Chairman of Zhangqi Sub-district Trade Union), Shi Chenglei (Executive Deputy Director of Zhangqi Working Committee on Children and Teenagers), Li Hairong (Chairman of Eastsun Trade Union) and Fang Ting (Company Administration Director). The whole opening ceremony was hosted by Qiu Xuechun, Administration Specialist of Eastsun.

The first lesson of the summer program was delivered by national model worker Feng Liben, with the theme Be an Extraordinary Little Seed. With vivid stories and life insights, the model worker delivered an inspiring enlightening lecture integrating moral education, labor awareness and sustainable growth concepts, kicking off a fulfilling and warm summer study journey. This program serves as a key tangible practice of Eastsun’s ESG social welfare module.

Lightweight packaging design cuts resource consumption. We completed energy-saving equipment renovation and closed-loop waste recycling, prioritizing eco-friendly water-based varnish and plastic-free degradable packaging solutions to help global brands meet low-carbon ESG packaging standards.

2. S - Social: Dual Track of Employee Care & Community Public WelfareBeyond the annual summer childcare program, we launch regular initiatives including support for underprivileged employees, seasonal staff benefits, local community student aid and model-worker spirit lectures. We cooperate with sub-district women’s committees and trade unions to build a government-enterprise public welfare platform, support youth positive growth and give back to local communities.
