Recently, GEM’s global innovation and intellectual property strategy has delivered another major breakthrough, with core facilities both in China and overseas successively securing internationally authoritative certifications. This has formally established a global innovation management framework in which domestic operations consolidate the foundation while overseas operations lead the advancement, driving high-quality development across the global new energy materials and circular economy industries with robust systemic strength.

On August 5, 2026, PT.QMB NEW ENERGY MATERIALS (QMB) successfully obtained the ISO 56005 Innovation & Intellectual Property Management Capability (Level 4) evaluation certificate. Following its ISO 56001 Innovation Management System certification in 2025, QMB has become the first and currently the only overseas enterprise to achieve ISO 56005 Level 4 certification. This dual-certification achievement represents high recognition from international authorities of GEM’s innovation capabilities overseas, and more importantly, marks the entry of the QMB Indonesia Industrial Park’s core competencies—including innovation R&D, intellectual property operations, and technology commercialization—into the global advanced tier. GEM’s overseas industrial base has thus broken through the traditional manufacturing model, evolving into a global innovation hub integrating independent R&D, patent portfolio development, and intellectual property barrier construction, propelling GEM’s innovation and intellectual property management systems to new heights and setting a new industry benchmark.

At the same time, domestic operations have been advancing in tandem, strengthening the innovation foundation and achieving synchronized, mutually reinforcing innovation development both at home and abroad. In June 2026, GEM Co., Ltd. and Jingmen GEM New Materials Co., Ltd., having already passed the ISO 56005 Innovation & Intellectual Property Management Capability (Level 3) evaluation, once again received ISO 56001 Innovation Management System certification. This marks the full coverage of dual international certifications—“ISO 56005 + ISO 56001”—across GEM Co., Ltd. and its core subsidiaries.

In addition to the dual international certifications, GEM’s intellectual property compliance foundation had already been firmly established: Jingmen GEM New Materials Co., Ltd., Wuhan Power Battery Recycling Technology Co., Ltd., Jingmen Power Battery Regeneration Technology Co., Ltd. and Wuxi Power Battery Regeneration Technology Co., Ltd. had previously passed the GB/T 29490-2023 Intellectual Property Management System certification, securing the innovation development of the company with national standards. ISO 56001 standardizes the end-to-end innovation mechanism, connecting the entire chain from idea incubation and R&D breakthroughs to technology commercialization. ISO 56005 deeply integrates intellectual property with innovation, maximizing the realization of innovation value through patent-driven strategies. GB/T 29490-2023 ensures robust intellectual property compliance and risk control. The layered implementation of these three authoritative systems has propelled GEM from “point-based technological innovation” to a leapfrog advancement of “systematic innovation + globalized intellectual property operations.”

With a strategic framework of “national standards as the foundation, dual international systems for empowerment, and differentiated advancement at home and overseas,” GEM has built a uniquely distinctive global innovation management ecosystem.

GEM Shenzhen headquarters and core facilities such as Jingmen Industrial Park leverage GB/T 29490-2023 to solidify the intellectual property compliance foundation. Relying on the dual ISO 56001 + ISO 56005 (Level 3) certifications, they focus on technology iteration, patent accumulation, and innovation process standardization, refining a mature and replicable innovation management model. Serving as the “home base” for GEM's global innovation, they continuously export management expertise, R&D mechanisms, and core technologies to overseas facilities.

The overseas QMB Indonesia Industrial Park, leveraging Southeast Asia's resource advantages, has advanced to ISO 56005 Level 4—a higher-tier capability built upon the same foundational system. Compared to Level 3, the Level 4 system places greater emphasis on localized R&D, overseas patent portfolio development, and commercialization of intellectual property. This enables the industrial park to build an exclusive intellectual property moat in the global resource core zone, effectively mitigate overseas IP risks, drive overseas production capacity upgrades with top-tier innovation capabilities, and achieve absolute leadership in innovation strength among global overseas industrial parks.

Across the global new energy materials industry, GEM stands alone as the company that has simultaneously achieved dual innovation certifications across all domestic and overseas operations, with its overseas park reaching the ISO 56005 Level 4 advanced tier! The comprehensive implementation of these certifications at home and abroad not only validates the remarkable outcomes of GEM’s “innovation-driven, IP-first” strategy, but also provides a replicable and scalable benchmark model for Chinese new energy enterprises expanding overseas—guiding them in establishing intellectual property systems and building global innovation platforms.

From domestic “urban mining” operations to the overseas Indonesia industrial park, GEM has adopted a strategic approach of synchronized domestic and overseas advancement, deeply integrating systematic innovation with intellectual property management. Through outstanding technological achievements, the company has addressed industry challenges and forged new competitive advantages on a global scale. GEM has successfully transferred its “urban mining” circular technology and intellectual property management expertise to overseas industrial parks such as QMB, building a robust global competitive barrier with a leading innovation model. Driven by the dual engines of “Technology + Management” empowering the development of overseas green industrial parks—from technological innovation to management enablement, from intellectual property advantages to industrial competitive strengths—GEM is advancing with this dual-drive model to integrate Chinese standards and technologies deeply into the global industrial chain. Building on this new milestone and forging ahead on a new journey, GEM will continue to improve its global innovation and intellectual property management system. With domestic facilities as the foundation to consolidate the technology base and the Indonesia QMB industrial park as a window to deepen global market presence, the company will continue to explore the innovation potential in core sectors such as urban mining and power lithium battery recycling. Through systematic innovation driving technological breakthroughs and intellectual property building core barriers, GEM will continue to lead the transformation of the global circular economy and new energy materials industries, injecting powerful new momentum into high-quality development!
