Recently, Qingdao Zhongxiang Packaging Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Qingdao Zhongxiang") is pleased to announce that, after authoritative review and rigorous testing, the company has officially passed COA Quality Conformance (CQC) certification and successfully been included in the COA Flexitank Quality List (FQL).

 

This milestone achievement signifies that Qingdao Zhongxiang's Flexitank product quality, safety control, and environmental standards have gained high recognition from the global shipping industry, laying a solid foundation for the company to expand into international markets and deepen industry cooperation.

 


The COA (Container Owners Association), as the authoritative organization in the global container operations field, is committed to promoting the safe, reliable, and sustainable development of container flexitank transportation. This organization brings together core players across the entire flexitank industry chain, including manufacturers, shipping companies, freight forwarders, insurance companies, supply chain suppliers, and professional installation agencies. Through joint efforts, it has developed unified industry procedures, supply standards, and operating manuals, constructing a standardized system covering the entire process of flexitank production, transportation, and use, providing crucial assurance for global shipping safety and efficiency.

 

According to COA certification rules, companies must pass rigorous multi-dimensional audits and product testing, and undergo periodic reviews, to obtain COA Quality Conformance (CQC) certification and be included in the Flexitank Quality List (FQL). This list serves as a core reference for major global shipping companies in assessing transportation risks, providing cargo owners and carriers with a reliable list of compliant suppliers, effectively reducing supply chain risks and ensuring the safety and stability of the transportation process.

 

This successful certification not only provides authoritative endorsement of Qingdao Zhongxiang's product quality and operational capabilities but also achieves the company's core development goal—becoming a compliant flexitank supplier recognized by shipping companies/carriers—successfully opening up access to the global shipping market and further enhancing the company's competitiveness and brand influence in the international market.

 

As a full member of the COA FQL, Qingdao Zhongxiang will always adhere to the core requirements of the COA guidelines, prioritizing safety, leak prevention, pollution control, environmental protection, and continuous improvement in its operations. Moving forward, the company will continue to uphold its compliant operating philosophy, strictly follow the ISO 14001 environmental management system standards, and provide higher-standard products and services to fulfill its responsibilities to customers, the industry, and society, contributing to a cleaner, safer, and more sustainable global shipping ecosystem.
