Ancient Chinese jade token of faith, origin of RI

RI · Rui | Pledge by Jade, Rooted in Integrity

RI derives from the Chinese character Rui (瑞), an ancient symbol of trust in Chinese civilization. Shuowen Jiezi records: Rui refers to jade used as a token of faith. In the Zhou Dynasty, the emperor established the ritual system of Six Rui, using jade objects as official tokens and covenant credentials — jade validated promises, and matched jade signified a binding agreement. We take this ancient virtue as our foundation: integrity is our fundamental business principle. We build our enterprise on honesty, remain accountable to clients, honour commitments with partners and shoulder our social responsibilities.

Innovation in the laboratory, the spirit of CH

CH · Qi | Innovate to Break Boundaries, Win with Ingenuity

CH comes from the Chinese character Qi (奇). It fuels our sustainable growth, representing originality, differentiation and the pursuit of excellence — the spirit of winning through ingenuity. Rejecting rigid mindsets and mediocrity, we keep innovating, crossing industry boundaries and building differentiated strengths. Innovation empowers our products, services and collaborations, sustaining our vitality and core competitiveness.
