Protecting the Environment

coatings in subway construction. Non-toxic with no irritating odors, they do 
not cause any environmental pollution and are harmless to humans. 
-New energies: CRRC is fully upgrading the frame of its vehicles, thereby 
reducing overall weight by over 800kg. Moreover, it has adjusted the 
electromagnetic driving system, boosting efficiency and reducing energy 
consumption - for which CRRC won a Best Energy Conservation Award. 
-21st China Environmental Expo: With a multimedia booth that included videos, 
an exhibit, and an innovative cloud display system, CRRC showcased its regional 
environmental governance, industrial energy conservation, purification, and 
other technologies in 2020. 
-Eco-friendly materials: CRRC debuted a new fiber-reinforced composite flooring 
at the end of 2020, to be used in railway flatcars. Not only does it save 
natural resources, but it also improves safety by eliminating fires caused by 
wooden floors.

Tackling Poverty and Boosting Education

rural business owners in Hubei province, China to sell their primarily 
agricultural products. This initiative attracted many public participants,

with a charity sale, with proceeds helping students acquire essential school 
supplies.

Fighting the Pandemic

-Essential delivery to Wuhan: When the outbreak occurred in Wuhan, CRRC 
immediately delivered more than 700 parts and accessories for the city's 
negative pressure ambulances, which are critical in reducing cross-infection 
during patient transfers. CRRC's cold supply chain also ensured that residents 
received access to resources and supplies.

at a time when resources were scant. 
-Critical donations: CRRC donated cash and supplies totaling RMB 42 million, 
including medical supplies, food, and 1,200 hospital beds. 

Resuming Work and Production

-Fuxing train: In March 2020, CRRC's Fuxing train, which can reach speed up to 
350 km/h, rolled off the assembly line, despite the pandemic. 
-International deliveries: CRRC exported its third batch of GWA vehicles to 
Australia, locomotives to Nigeria, and its second batch of EMUs to Angola in
