The sustainability whitepaper is a productized service from ChiHe Design: using LCA life cycle assessment, it translates your circular actions into carbon reduction data and brand assets that are disclosable under GRI, SASB, and the SDGs, and verifiable by third parties.
More and more companies are being asked to disclose ESG performance, by regulators, by supply chain clients, by investors. Yet most brands are stuck in the same place: real sustainability actions, but no verifiable data. The sustainability whitepaper is the productized service that closes that gap.
ESG sounds vast, but you are most likely already doing it; it just has not been converted into the language of ESG. A large part of what we do is act as your translator: turning your existing circular actions into disclosable, citable data, without demanding extensive extra verification or spend from you.
We do more than make products more sustainable. We quantify the carbon reduction of every circular cycle into real data that can be written into a report and verified by third parties. Unlike conventional recycling, CircoGreen is design-driven: waste becomes a product consumers genuinely want to buy.
Our methodology is built on a closed-loop system: design, use, recover, regenerate. Every step maps to a quantifiable carbon data output.
Circular thinking from the source: sustainable materials and demountable structures that redefine the product.
Reusable spaces and products that carry brand memory, extending value across the life cycle.
Recovery and reuse pathways, with the carbon avoided in every cycle quantified.
Recovered materials redesigned into new circular assets, closing the loop and producing citable data.
* Carbon footprint assessments are estimated using secondary data from Taiwan's Product Carbon Footprint Information Platform and the actual quantities of each case; methodology is adjusted case by case.
The whitepaper is not for everyone. It is for brands and companies already doing the sustainability work, yet unable to articulate the results or write them into a report.
Driving carbon reduction, circularity, or ESG projects, and needing to quantify the results as the basis for external communications and brand premium.
Asked by listed companies, financial holding groups, and international clients for carbon data and ESG evidence, but lacking auditable reduction results and disclosure material.
Writing or strengthening a sustainability report or ESG disclosure, but holding data that cannot map to the international GRI, SASB, and SDGs frameworks.
Not a handsome slide deck, but a body of citable evidence. Every item can be written into your sustainability report.

See a finished sample: the CircoGreen Salon Sustainability Whitepaper, full 23-page edition →
The sample whitepaper PDF is currently in Traditional Chinese; an English summary is available on request.
Carbon emissions and reductions accounted for at each stage, based on the actual quantities of your product or project, with methodology and data sources attached for third-party review.
Reduction results mapped to disclosure indicators such as GRI 301 (Materials), 305 (Emissions), and 306 (Waste), ready to embed directly in your report.
Internationally recognized icons mark the Sustainable Development Goals your project contributes to, so stakeholders grasp the contribution at a glance.
The language of design turns "why we did it this way, and what came of it" into a brand story you can communicate, not a cold column of numbers.
Layout files and visual assets ready for your website, proposals, investor presentations, and reports.
An assessment of compatible government subsidies (Brand Yaofei, export low-carbon packaging, SBIR, regional revitalization) to maximize the financial leverage of your sustainability investment.
When you cite a CircoGreen collaboration, you are citing a body of real, third-party-verifiable results, not marketing language. Below are the cumulative results of completed cases.
| Case | Type | Core carbon result | Methodology | SDGs |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| BNI · BEYOND | Exhibition | Display walls −37% per edition (651→406 kgCO₂e) | Dye-sublimation reusable display fabric | 12·13·17 |
| Chin Yi Eggs 勤億蛋品 | Packaging | 495.9 kgCO₂e reduced per tonne | Eggshell paper tray, 85/15 | 8·9·12·17 |
| ModuLab | Brand | Materials stage −87~92% | Ocean-recovered HDPE | 4·12·14·17 |
| TAKU Cast Iron 大古鑄鐵 | Brand | 0.55 tCO₂e reduced through repair and life extension | The Life of One Pot | 3·12 |
| Hong Ding Pastry 鴻鼎菓子 | Packaging | Materials −74.6% | Bagasse paper × soy ink | 12·13 |
* Cumulative figures are consolidated from LCA assessments of completed cases; each case's methodology and actual-quantity estimates are adjusted case by case. More cases, including the Penghu marine debris circular project, are continually being added.
Whether you need a single project, a product line, or a sustainability report you can show the world, there is an entry point that fits.
Transform company waste streams or existing activities into verifiable ESG data and brand assets.
Complete circular design and production, from material to market, turning waste into a product buyers will pay for.
A credible sustainability report crafted with design thinking, translating circular actions into citable disclosure content.
ChiHe serves as both a consultant to Taiwan's Brand Yaofei Program and a low-carbon packaging consultant to TAITRA. As your circular design project launches, we can help assess the government subsidies worth pursuing (Brand Yaofei, export low-carbon packaging, local SBIR, regional revitalization, and more) to maximize the financial leverage of your sustainability investment. Subsidies are the accelerator, never the strategy itself.
Tell us the sustainability demand you are facing: a report to write, a client asking for carbon data, or a product line you want to make circular. In one consultation, we will help you identify the entry point that fits best.
