Overview

Sustainability is rapidly becoming a defining factor in the future of global industry. As governments, infrastructure developers, and businesses work toward decarbonization goals, manufacturers are increasingly expected to deliver solutions that improve energy efficiency, reduce environmental impact, and support long-term resilience.

The LEO Group 2025 Sustainability Report reflects how sustainability continues to be integrated across the company's operations, technologies, and long-term strategy. This article highlights measurable progress in environmental performance, product innovation, responsible governance, and stakeholder value creation from LEO Pump.

Sustainability at LEO: Our Long-Term Commitment

At LEO, sustainability is not treated as a standalone initiative. It is embedded in how the company innovates, manufactures, and delivers value through smart fluid solutions.

The company's sustainability strategy focuses on three interconnected priorities:

- Advancing low-carbon manufacturing

- Developing energy-efficient technologies

- Creating long-term value for customers, employees, communities, and stakeholders

This approach aligns business growth with broader environmental and social objectives, ensuring that sustainability remains a core component of future development.

Environmental Performance

Reducing environmental impact begins with transforming how products are manufactured and how resources are utilized.

Accelerating Renewable Energy Adoption

LEO's Wenling manufacturing base has deployed more than 100,000 square meters of photovoltaic systems supported by energy storage infrastructure. Renewable electricity is increasingly prioritized within daily operations, helping accelerate the transition toward a cleaner energy mix.

In 2025, renewable electricity consumption reached 12,683 MWh.

Smart Energy Management

Advanced energy management systems provide real-time monitoring and optimization of energy use across manufacturing facilities. Data-driven controls improve operational visibility while supporting more efficient energy consumption.

Lower-Emission Operations

LEO continues to improve manufacturing logistics through the implementation of automated guided vehicles (AGVs) and electric vehicle-based transportation systems. These initiatives help reduce operational emissions while enhancing productivity and operational efficiency.

Together, these efforts demonstrate how industrial manufacturers can reduce their environmental footprint while maintaining competitiveness and operational performance.

Driving Sustainable Water Solutions Through Innovation

Innovation remains one of the most powerful drivers of sustainability within the water infrastructure sector.

LEO continues to invest in technologies that improve pump efficiency, reduce energy consumption, and extend equipment life cycles.

Core Technology Upgrades

Key innovations include:

- Permanent magnet motor technology

- High-efficiency hydraulic designs

- Intelligent control systems

Compared with traditional asynchronous motor systems, these technologies can improve efficiency by approximately 5% to 15%, helping customers reduce operating costs while lowering indirect carbon emissions.

Smarter Lifecycle Energy Savings

Intelligent regulation and on-demand energy supply capabilities enable pump systems to operate more efficiently under varying load conditions.

For example, a single 11 kW permanent magnet intelligent end-suction pump can achieve:

- Approximately 4,500 kWh annual electricity savings

- Approximately 3.5 tons of annual CO₂ emission reductions

What Sustainability Means for the Future of Water Infrastructure

Global water infrastructure faces mounting challenges, including population growth, urbanization, aging assets, water scarcity, and increasing energy demand.

At the same time, infrastructure owners are under growing pressure to improve efficiency while reducing environmental impact.

In this context, sustainability is no longer limited to environmental compliance. It has become a fundamental requirement for infrastructure resilience and long-term performance.

Energy-efficient pumps and intelligent fluid systems play a critical role by helping operators:

- Reduce electricity consumption

- Lower carbon emissions

- Improve operational reliability

- Extend equipment life cycles

- Optimize water resource utilization
