LISHUI, China, Dec. 12,
2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Tantech Holdings Ltd
(NASDAQ: TANH) ("Tantech" or the "Company") today announced that
its subsidiary, Zhejiang Tantech Bamboo Charcoal Co., Ltd., had
received a certificate from the Bamboo and Rattan Technical
Committee of the International Organization for Standardization
(ISO/TC 296). This certificate acknowledges proactive participation
and significant contribution of Tantech in setting a new set of
international standards (ISO 5946:2022) on general specifications
of bamboo-based activated carbon, which aims at accelerating
technological innovations, facilitating global trade and promoting
sustainable uses of renewable bamboo resources through guiding
production processes, stipulating quality requirements and
specifying test methodologies. Previously, ISO had awarded three
similar certificates to Tantech to recognize its valuable roles in
establishing international standards for manufacturing and
marketing bamboo charcoal products (ISO 21626-1/2/3: 2020), which
cover a series of technical specifications and classifications on
generalities (Part 1), fuel applications (Part 2) and purification
applications (Part 3). All these ISO standards are instrumental in
providing fundamental knowledge and practical tools for grading
different kinds of outputs according to their physicochemical
characteristics, such as verifiable measurements in moisture, ash,
fixed carbon content, calorific value and formaldehyde/TVOC
adsorption capacity.
Mr. Wangfeng Yan, CEO of Tantech, said, "We have invested
intensively in strengthening our R&D capabilities and
reinforcing our research partnerships, in order to achieve better
technologic excellence and gain stronger market competitiveness.
Being able to continuously participate in assisting ISO to
formulate and update international standards on bamboo charcoal and
activated carbon has not only given us precious opportunities to
learn from industrial leaders but also stimulated us to upgrade our
production processes and revamp our quality assurance systems. All
these will surely help us to better serve our customers and to
attain higher acceptance of our products and services in the
market."
