Recently, ARES Vietnam presented the ISO 14064-1:2018 Greenhouse Gas Inventory Report Verification Statement to A&J (Vietnam) Co., Ltd. for the 2025 reporting period.

The completion of the verification process marks an important milestone in A&J (Vietnam)’s greenhouse gas inventory activities, helping strengthen the reliability, consistency and transparency of the emissions information compiled and reported by the company.

COMPANY INFORMATION

• Company name: A&J (Vietnam) Co., Ltd.
• Address: Lot No. 47-10, N16 Road, Phuoc Dong Industrial Park, Gia Loc Ward, Tay Ninh Province, Vietnam
• Business scope: Design and manufacturing of electric bicycles, bicycles, mountain bikes, frames, and spare parts
• Verification standard: ISO 14064-1:2018

A&J (Vietnam) operates in the bicycle manufacturing sector, with a range of technical processes including tube processing, laser cutting, forming, frame welding, painting, wheel assembly and complete bicycle assembly.

Organising the inventory using an appropriate methodology provides the company with a basis for managing environmental information in line with actual factory operations.

THE VALUE OF ISO 14064-1:2018 FOR BICYCLE MANUFACTURING ACTIVITIES

1. Clearly Defining the Inventory Boundary and Emission Sources

ISO 14064-1:2018 specifies principles and requirements for quantifying and reporting greenhouse gas emissions at the organisational level. The standard helps define the inventory boundary, identify emission sources and select appropriate quantification methods.

For A&J (Vietnam), this approach clarifies the reporting scope and identifies emission sources for inclusion in the inventory.

2. Enhancing Data Quality and Traceability

In addition to identifying emission sources, ISO 14064-1:2018 establishes requirements for managing the quality of greenhouse gas information. The company should support, retain, and cross-check data against relevant evidence.

Therefore, A&J (Vietnam) can improve data traceability. It can also maintain consistency across reporting periods. Discrepancies can be minimised when inventory information is updated.

3. Proactively Providing Emissions Information to Stakeholders

In bicycle manufacturing, customers, brands and partners increasingly focus on environmental and greenhouse gas emissions information.

An ISO 14064-1:2018 inventory report, verified accordingly, offers a reliable basis for responding to emissions-information requests. It helps A&J (Vietnam) respond to customers, brands and partners. It also supports proactive discussions on carbon, environmental issues and related supply-chain criteria.

A FOUNDATION FOR CARBON MANAGEMENT AND INFORMATION TRANSPARENCY

ARES Vietnam sincerely congratulates A&J (Vietnam) Co., Ltd. on completing the verification of its ISO 14064-1:2018 greenhouse gas inventory report for the 2025 reporting period.

On this basis, A&J (Vietnam) can take a more proactive approach to providing information to customers and partners, while gradually considering improvement opportunities that align with the company’s development direction.
