On April 29, 2026, Hikvision, a global leader in video surveillance and smart IoT solutions, unveiled its Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) report for 2025. This marks the eighth consecutive year the company has transparently detailed its sustainability initiatives, reinforcing its commitment to the philosophy of "Tech for Good."

Embracing Sustainable Practices

With a focus on creating positive societal impact, Hikvision’s report emphasizes its ongoing efforts to integrate sustainability into its core operations. The company identified key dual material topics: technological innovation, product security and quality, and cybersecurity. By addressing these areas, Hikvision aims to systematically promote its sustainable development goals.

Innovations for Urban Management

Hikvision has developed comprehensive monitoring systems aimed at securing critical infrastructure, showcasing its dedication to enhancing urban governance. This includes the deployment of over 300 devices and 140 traffic management solutions tailored to real-world scenarios. Notably, solutions for environmental preservation were showcased at the 5th World Congress of Biosphere Reserves. These initiatives are currently active in national parks across China, covering 50% of the country’s biosphere reserves, demonstrating Hikvision’s commitment to nature protection.

Public Good Through AIoT

The company continues to prioritize societal welfare through its STAR program, which spans 14 countries and regions, fostering ecological monitoring in the Pyrenees and research on Himalayan glaciers. The STAR Installer Partner Initiative 2025 is another highlight, uniting a global network to provide crucial technical support, thereby enhancing its contributions to public welfare.

Enhancing Cybersecurity and Product Quality

To bolster digital trust, Hikvision has implemented a comprehensive cybersecurity framework aimed at better management practices. Impressively, the company achieved a 100% vulnerability remediation rate in 2025, earning the highest level of Digital Trust Assurance Award from the British Standards Institute (BSI).

In terms of product quality management, Hikvision established standardized digital processes that ensure reliability while also enhancing its intellectual property portfolio. In 2025, the company filed 7,399 patent applications related to its primary activities, securing 1,553 new patents, further solidifying its innovation stance in the market.

Regulatory Compliance and Data Protection

Hikvision has effectively integrated regulatory compliance into daily operations by adopting best practices globally. The company received ISO 37301 certification in 2025 and remains aligned with the latest technological trends, evidenced by its publication "Journey of Practicing Responsible AI," which outlines Hikvision's commitment to developing AI in accordance with regulations. Data protection is a top priority, as reflected in the successful completion of annual audits under various international standards, achieving 100% coverage of workforce awareness on privacy issues.

Climate Action and Green Products

Navigating climate initiatives through a three-tier management structure, Hikvision promotes decarbonization across four key pillars: low-carbon products, smart manufacturing, digital empowerment, and green operations. To bolster its green management capabilities, the GPA platform evaluates the carbon footprint of its products. By the end of 2025, 169 product models were assessed for their environmental impact. A notable achievement includes the certification of seven WonderHub intelligent displays under TCO Certified Generation 10 — the first large-format displays globally meeting this standard.
