——CAME国际嘉宾专访实录（四）：Sven Ballschmiede，
国际食用香料工业组织（IOFI）执行总监
01 开场：从开幕致辞到ESG论坛，他带来“可量化”的可持续
2026年9月17~19日，中国（国际）香料香精化妆品行业年会暨精品博览会（CAME）在南京举行。国际食用香料工业组织（IOFI）执行总监Sven Ballschmiede受邀深度参与本届大会：9月17日，在大会开幕式上代表IOFI致辞；9月18日上午，在2026中国香妆行业可持续发展（ESG）论坛上带来主题分享《IOFI范围3项目以及EUDR进展》。CAME期间，他再次接受中国香妆国际事务部专访，围绕行业重心东移、创新与安全监管的平衡、碳足迹核算等议题展开深入对话。
Sven Ballschmiede现任国际食用香料工业组织（IOFI）执行总监。IOFI成立于1969年，总部位于比利时布鲁塞尔，是全球食用香料行业最具权威性的非营利性行业协会之一，其会员由18个国家级或地区级行业协会及多家跨国企业组成，旨在代表全球食用香料行业推动安全、负责任的生产及可持续贸易。
02 开幕致辞划重点：传承、创新、超越
在开幕式致辞中，Sven以大会主题“传承、创新、超越”为主线，用一场“桂花”意象贯穿全篇的演讲，诠释了香料香精行业的昨天、今天与明天。以下为致辞重点（中文为致辞口述全文，英文为对应主要内容）：
关于“传承”——香气与风味，是文化与记忆的载体。“此时此刻，我们相聚南京，也恰逢桂花初绽的时节。这让我们更加深切地体会到，香气和风味与文化和记忆之间有着多么紧密的联系。数百年来，桂花的香气与风味一直是中国饮食文化的重要组成部分，广泛应用于茶饮、糕点和节庆食品。正如桂花的芬芳代代相传一样，支撑我们行业发展的知识、工艺与经验也在不断传承。”
“For centuries, the fragrance and flavor of osmanthus have been part of Chinese culinary traditions, from teas and pastries to festive foods. Just as osmanthus has been passed from one generation to the next, so too has the knowledge and craftsmanship that underpin our industry.”
关于“创新”——创新不是取代传统，而是在传统基础上不断发展和提升。“桂花的独特魅力可以通过传统提取工艺得到呈现。如今，科学家也可以运用更加先进的技术，在提高提取效率的同时增强可持续性……数字化工具和人工智能则帮助我们更深入地理解和重现复杂的风味特征。创新使我们既能够保留消费者所珍视的传统体验，也能够为未来开发新的产品和解决方案。”
“Innovation is therefore not about replacing tradition. It is about building upon tradition.”
关于“超越”——香气和风味跨越地域界限，又与自身文化根源紧密相连。他以桂花的全球旅程为例，“桂花原本承载着独具中国特色的文化传统，如今，其独特的香气与风味也正在为中国以外的产品创新和消费者体验带来灵感。与此同时，来自世界不同地区的创意、原料和创新成果，也在不断丰富中国的产品开发。通过交流合作与相互学习，香气和风味跨越地域界限，同时又始终与自身的文化根源紧密相连。”
“Through exchange, cooperation, and mutual learning, flavors transcend borders while remaining connected to their origins.”
落点：三个关键词，行业共同的愿景。致辞结尾，他总结道：“传承，为我们奠定根基。创新，为我们创造机遇。超越，激励我们携手前行。”他强调，IOFI高度重视与CAFFCI的合作关系——多年来两个组织保持建设性且富有成果的交流，通过定期对话、科学研讨和技术合作不断增进相互理解；展望未来，可持续发展将继续成为行业关注的重要议题，而“务实可行的解决方案、坚实的科学基础，以及价值链各环节的共同合作”，是取得切实进展的关键。
“Heritage provides our foundation. Innovation creates new opportunities. Beyond inspires us to continue advancing together.”
03 演讲回顾：IOFI范围3项目与PCF标准——给行业一把“通用尺子”
在ESG论坛上，Sven的分享聚焦于食用香料行业的碳足迹核算基础设施：一个由IOFI牵头、历时三年建成的行业级排放因子数据库，以及围绕产品碳足迹（PCF）标准、计算与数据共享的方法论共识。
为什么需要“行业级数据仓库”？对香精企业而言，其碳足迹的最大份额来自Scope 3（价值链间接排放），尤其是所采购的原料。但每种成分背后都是一条独立的供应链，要为数百种成分逐一计算排放，超出大多数中小企业的能力。这正是IOFI数据仓库要填补的缺口：为行业提供一个可信、通用的排放因子参照系，让不同规模的企业——尤其是中小企业——能够以可比较的基础开启碳足迹核算之旅。
数据库是什么？IOFI的Scope 3排放因子数据库涵盖约150种常用天然与合成风味成分（以及载体、溶剂等）的原型数据，以“产品碳足迹”形式呈现——通过生命周期评估（LCA）计算，单位为kgCO?eq，覆盖从原料到工厂大门（cradle-to-gate）的原料生产与加工环节。项目于2022年10月启动，由IOFI会员企业携手可持续咨询公司Quantis共同建模，经公开征询与严格治理（月度指导委员会、三个技术委员会、反垄断合规与质量控制），于2026年1月正式上线。方法论对齐欧盟产品环境足迹（PEF）等主流框架，并兼容GHG Protocol与SBTi科学碳目标体系；数据按家族与地理来源分类，并区分FLAG（林业、土地与农业）与非FLAG排放——后者可直接服务于SBTi报告与供应链毁林相关监管（如EUDR）的应对准备。
如何解读与使用？Sven以马来西亚棕榈油为例讲解排放因子的解读方法：一份排放因子可以拆分为生命周期各环节的贡献，也可以拆分农业活动、土地利用变化与加工阶段的排放占比，帮助企业定位“排放热点”。他同时给出碳足迹管理的进阶路径——从“Pioneer（起步）”到“Aware（感知）”再到“Advanced（领先）”：先使用通用排放因子完成基线测算、识别热点，再逐步以企业自有的一手数据替代通用值，最终建立供应商级数据体系。他提醒，建立一份扎实的碳基线通常需要3至5年。
如何访问？访问流程公开透明：进入iofi.org官网，在Resources（资源）目录下找到Scope 3 Emission Factors Repository，填写简短的在线申请表单、接受使用条款即可。目前数据库对包括非会员在内的所有企业免费开放，遵循公平、合理、无歧视的原则；IOFI也邀请每位用户反馈数据质量，让数据库在使用中不断改进。
PCF标准：走向互操作，而非“各自为政”。Sven进一步分享了对PCF标准格局的判断：当前全球PCF计算方法学以ISO 14067与GHG Protocol为一般原则，PACT与TfS等聚焦化学品等行业的可比性交换，产品类别规则（PCR）则细化到具体产品。挑战同样明显——全球约有15000种香料香精成分在使用，而已发布的PCF数据跨度从不到1kg到数千kg CO?e/kg，二手数据库对细分原料覆盖有限，且尚无全球统一数据库（ecoinvent偏欧洲、中国CLCD与国家PCF因子数据库正在建设中）。他认为，中、欧、美各自发展区域标准是大概率事件（汽车行业已出现先例），关键不是追求单一标准，而是确保不同框架共享兼容的核心方法论与数据要求——ISO 14067与GHG Protocol作为WTO合规、国际一致的基础，值得行业共同依赖。“互操作性”，是他带给这场讨论的关键词。
04 一点观察：中国香料香精企业读到的三件事
第一，碳核算有了“公平的起跑线”。IOFI的排放因子数据库免费向所有企业开放，包括大量中小企业。这意味着Scope 3碳核算不再是跨国巨头才能负担的“专属能力”——当客户要求提供碳数据时，不同规模的中国供应商都能站在可比较的基础上作答。这是行业公共基础设施的价值，也是中国香料香精企业参与国际供应链对话的入场券。
第二，“通用数据”是起点，不是终点。排放因子数据库的价值在于帮助企业完成从0到1的起步：先用通用值找到热点，再集中资源用一手数据替换关键环节。企业越早建立“通用值→一手数据→供应商数据”的进阶机制，越能在未来的碳合规与客户审核中占据主动。
第三，标准会分化，方法论要互通。中、欧、美区域PCF标准并行是大概率事件，企业不必等待“统一标准”落地——依托ISO 14067与GHG Protocol这套国际公认基础建立自己的碳核算能力，同时关注中国国家PCF因子数据库（2027-2030年上线）的进展，是更务实的策略。
05 CAME专访：六个问题
CAME期间，中国香妆国际事务部陈柯如（Jasmine）对Sven Ballschmiede进行了专访。以下为对话实录：
Q1｜全球香料香精产业重心东移，IOFI如何支持中国市场
提问：我们看到当前亚太地区已经成为全球最大的香料香精区域市场，同时也是增长最快的区域，且增速持续高于全球平均水平。想请问您如何看待全球香料香精产业的重心持续向东转移的趋势？IOFI后续会针对中国市场的产业特色和消费需求，推出哪些针对性的行业支持举措？
Question：We can see that the Asia-Pacific region has become the world's largest flavour and fragrance market as well as the fastest-growing one. The Chinese market accounts for approximately 12.5% of the global total, maintaining a growth rate higher than the global average. What is your view on the ongoing eastward shift of the global flavour and fragrance industry? What targeted industry support measures will IOFI launch in response to the industrial characteristics and consumer demands of the Chinese market?
Sven Ballschmiede：The continued eastward shift of the flavour and fragrance industry reflects the growing importance of Asia-Pacific, and particularly China, in shaping the future of our sector. China is no longer only a major growth market. It is increasingly a source of innovation, scientific expertise, manufacturing excellence, and valuable consumer insights. During CAME in Nanjing, I was once again impressed by the dynamism and international outlook of China's flavour and fragrance industry.
Rather than viewing this as a shift from one center of gravity to another, I see it as the emergence of a more interconnected global industry, where China is playing an increasingly important leadership role. International collaboration, scientific exchange, and regulatory dialogue will therefore become even more important in the years ahead.
To support the Chinese market, IOFI will continue to focus on three priorities.
First, strengthening scientific and regulatory cooperation with CAFFCI and Chinese stakeholders to support flavour safety, science-based regulation, and international knowledge exchange.
Second, supporting sustainability efforts. At this year's CAME, IOFI shared practical tools and methodologies to help companies improve carbon-footprint reporting and meet evolving sustainability expectations.
Third, fostering innovation and talent development. Chinese consumers are increasingly seeking products that combine authentic taste experiences, health and wellness, sustainability, and cultural relevance. IOFI will continue to facilitate the exchange of global expertise and support initiatives that help develop the next generation of flavour scientists, flavorists, and regulatory professionals.
China is already making an important contribution to the global flavour industry, and IOFI looks forward to deepening its partnership with CAFFCI to support innovation, sustainability, and science-based growth in the years ahead.
中文翻译：香料香精行业持续向东转移，反映了亚太——尤其是中国——在塑造行业未来方面日益重要的地位。中国不再只是一个主要的增长市场，它正越来越成为创新、科学专长、卓越制造与宝贵消费者洞察的来源。在南京参加CAME期间，中国香料香精行业的活力与国际视野再次给我留下深刻印象。
与其把这一趋势看作“重心从一处转移到另一处”，我更愿意把它看作一个更加互联互通的全球产业正在形成——中国在其中扮演着越来越重要的领导角色。因此，国际合作、科学交流与监管对话在未来将变得更加重要。
为支持中国市场，IOFI将继续聚焦三大优先事项：第一，加强与CAFFCI及中国利益相关方的科学与监管合作，支持食用香料安全、基于科学的监管与国际知识交流；第二，支持可持续发展——在今年的CAME上，IOFI分享了帮助企业在碳足迹报告与不断演进的可持续期望中前行的实用工具与方法；第三，促进创新与人才培养——中国消费者越来越青睐兼具真实风味体验、健康养生、可持续与文化相关性的产品，IOFI将继续促进全球专业知识的交流，支持下一代风味科学家、调香师与法规专业人才的培养。
中国已经在为全球食用香料行业作出重要贡献。IOFI期待与CAFFCI深化伙伴关系，在未来共同支持创新、可持续发展与基于科学的增长。
Q2｜创新与安全监管的平衡：行业与监管如何协作
提问：本次大会上IOFI分享了行业在风味创新领域的多个前沿方向，同时也提到行业当前正面临着“鼓励创新”和“保障安全监管”之间的平衡困境。想请您分享一下，IOFI认为全球各国的监管方与行业之间应当通过怎样的公共协作机制，既能守住风味产品的安全底线，又能避免过度监管阻碍这些前沿创新技术的落地普及？
Question：At this conference, IOFI shared multiple cutting-edge directions for flavour innovation, while pointing out the industry's dilemma of balancing "encouraging innovation" and "ensuring safety-oriented regulation". According to IOFI, what kind of public-private collaboration mechanisms should be established between regulators and industry stakeholders worldwide, so as to safeguard the safety baseline of flavour products without over-regulation hampering the roll-out and popularisation of these innovative technologies?
Sven Ballschmiede：Innovation and safety are not opposites; in our industry, safety is the precondition for innovation. Flavorings are used at very low levels and have been assessed for decades through well-established, science-based methodologies. The real risk is not too little regulation, but regulation that is disproportionate, not pragmatic or establishing different standards in national markets.
Three aspects are key in that respect: The first is early and structured dialogue: regulators and industry should be able to discuss new technologies (biotechnology and precision fermentation, new flavoring sources, new analytical and assessment methods, AI incorporation). The second is a shared scientific reference point, Codex Alimentarius and the JECFA evaluations exist precisely so that each country does not have to reinvent the assessment of the same substance; building national frameworks on that common basis protects consumers and speeds up access to innovation at the same time. The third is proportionality: requirements should match the actual level of risk, which for most flavoring substances is very low at their conditions of use.
Our industry is committed to take its own responsibilities. The IOFI Code of Practice is a commitment by our members to apply high standards of safety and good manufacturing practice everywhere they operate, including where regulation is still developing. Trust is what gives regulators the confidence to let innovation move forward.
中文翻译：创新与安全并不对立；在我们行业，安全是创新的前提。食用香料的使用量极低，且数十年来一直通过成熟、基于科学的方法进行评估。真正的风险不是监管太少，而是监管不匹配、不务实，或在不同国家的市场间设定不同标准。
在这方面有三个关键：第一，早期、结构化的对话——监管方与行业应当能够就新技术（生物技术与精密发酵、新的香料来源、新的分析与评估方法、人工智能的应用）展开讨论；第二，共享的科学参照点——食品法典委员会（Codex Alimentarius）与JECFA评估的存在，正是为了让每个国家不必对同一种物质重复发明评估；在这一共同基础上构建国家框架，既保护消费者，又加速创新落地；第三，相称性——要求应当与实际风险水平相匹配，而大多数食用香料物质在其使用条件下风险非常低。
我们行业承诺承担自身责任。IOFI《实践规章》（Code of Practice）是会员的承诺：无论在哪里经营——包括监管仍在发展的地区——都适用高标准的安全与良好生产规范。信任，正是监管方敢于让创新前进的信心来源。
Q3｜Scope 3排放因子数据库：核心价值与访问流程
提问：IOFI耗时三年搭建完成的Scope 3排放因子数据库目前已经正式上线，涵盖了约150种风味成分的原型数据，这对整个香料香精行业的碳核算来说是非常重要的基础工具。能否请您为中国的行业企业，尤其是大量中小规模的香料香精企业介绍一下，该数据库的核心使用价值是什么？企业要通过官方渠道访问该数据库的具体流程是怎样的？
Question：IOFI's Scope 3 emission factor database, developed over three years, has been officially launched with prototype data for around 150 flavour ingredients. It serves as a vital foundational tool for carbon accounting across the flavour and fragrance sector. Could you explain to Chinese enterprises, especially numerous small- and medium-sized flavour and fragrance companies, the core practical value of this database? What is the exact procedure for companies to access this database through official channels?
Sven Ballschmiede：For flavor companies, the largest share of their carbon footprint sits in Scope 3, and above all in the raw materials they purchase. Yet calculating emissions for hundreds of ingredients, each with its own supply chain, is beyond the means of most small and medium-sized companies. That is exactly the gap the repository fills.
Its core value is threefold. It provides credible, generic emission factors for around 150 commonly used natural and synthetic flavoring ingredients and other ingredients like carriers and solvents. It was developed over three years by IOFI member companies with the sustainability consultancy Quantis and refined through a public consultation. It gives the whole sector a consistent basis for calculation, so that when a customer asks for carbon data, suppliers of different sizes can respond on a comparable footing. And it helps companies identify where their emission hotspots are, so they can focus reduction efforts and, over time, replace generic values with their own primary data. It is a starting point, not the end of the journey - but for an SME it is often the step that makes Scope 3 accounting possible at all.
Access is straightforward. The repository is available on the IOFI website under Resources > Scope 3 Emission Factors Repository, where companies submit a short online request form. Currently access is free of charge and open to all companies, IOFI members or not, on fair, reasonable and non-discriminatory terms. We also invite every user to review and challenge the data and report back to IOFI, because the repository improves with use.
中文翻译：对香精企业而言，其碳足迹的最大份额位于Scope 3，尤其是所采购的原料。但要为数百种各有独立供应链的成分逐一计算排放，超出了大多数中小企业的能力范围——这正是该数据仓库要填补的缺口。
它的核心价值有三重：第一，为约150种常用的天然与合成风味成分，以及载体、溶剂等其他原料，提供可信的通用排放因子；第二，它由IOFI会员企业携手可持续咨询公司Quantis历时三年开发，并经公开征询打磨，为整个行业提供了统一的计算基础——当客户索要碳数据时，不同规模的供应商都能在可比较的基础上作答；第三，它帮助企业识别自身的排放热点，从而集中减排资源，并逐步以自有的一手数据替代通用值。它是一个起点，而不是旅程的终点——但对中小企业而言，这往往是让Scope 3核算真正成为可能的那一步。
访问流程非常简单：在IOFI官网Resources（资源）目录下的“Scope 3 Emission Factors Repository”板块，企业填写一份简短的在线申请表单即可。目前该数据库免费开放，无论是否IOFI会员，所有企业都可在公平、合理、无歧视的条件下使用。我们也邀请每一位用户审阅、质疑数据并向IOFI反馈，因为数据仓库会随着使用而不断改进。
Q4｜PCF标准分化：IOFI如何推动全球对齐
提问：目前全球不同地区都在逐步搭建自己的产品碳足迹（PCF）相关标准，有行业观点认为未来很可能出现中国、欧盟、美国各自独立推行区域标准的情况。IOFI作为全球香料香精行业的权威组织，会如何推动全球不同区域的PCF标准对齐，为香料香精企业的跨境业务碳核算提供统一、可参考的通用指引？
Question：Regions around the globe are rolling out their own Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) standards. Some industry insiders anticipate a scenario where China, the EU and the US each implement separate regional standards. As the global authoritative body for the flavour and fragrance industry, how will IOFI promote the alignment of PCF standards across regions and deliver unified, referential general guidance for carbon accounting in cross-border operations of flavour and fragrance enterprises?
Sven Ballschmiede：IOFI is not a standard-setter for carbon accounting, and it should not try to become one. What we can do is promote a flavor industry that builds on the same internationally recognized foundations wherever it operates, and follows the direction already set by the wider supply chain.
It is encouraging that China, the EU and the United States are all investing in product carbon footprints; it shows how seriously climate action in supply chains is now taken. The opportunity is to make these frameworks work together. Regional standards can rightly reflect local priorities, and when they share a compatible core methodology and data requirements, one robust calculation can serve several markets. That keeps carbon accounting within reach of smaller companies and lets everyone focus their effort on reducing emissions rather than on reporting them. Interoperability is therefore the message we carry into these discussions.
中文翻译：IOFI不是碳核算的标准制定者，也不应当试图成为标准制定者。我们能做的，是推动食用香料行业无论在哪里经营，都建立在同样的国际公认基础之上，并遵循更广泛供应链已经确定的方向。
令人鼓舞的是，中国、欧盟与美国都在投入产品碳足迹建设——这表明供应链气候行动如今受到的重视程度。机会在于让这些框架协同工作：区域标准可以合理地反映本地优先事项，而当它们共享兼容的核心方法论与数据要求时，一次扎实的计算就能服务于多个市场。这既让碳核算对中小企业触手可及，也让每个人把精力放在减排而非报告上。因此，“互操作性”就是我们带入这些讨论的核心信息。
Q5｜中国消费者的成分透明趋势：企业最需要把握什么
提问：中国的消费者现在在选购健康类风味相关产品时，已经非常主动地想要了解产品的具体成分，这和全球其他市场的消费特征形成了一定差异。结合IOFI对全球风味趋势的观察，您认为中国香料香精企业在对接这些本土化消费需求、同时适配全球行业的安全与可持续发展要求的过程中，最需要把握的核心要点是什么？
Question：Chinese consumers are now highly proactive in learning about detailed ingredients when purchasing health-related flavour-containing products, which sets them apart from consumers in many other global markets. Drawing on IOFI's observations of global flavour trends, what core priorities should Chinese flavour and fragrance enterprises grasp when meeting such local consumer needs while complying with global safety and sustainability requirements?
Sven Ballschmiede：I see three key priorities.
First, transparency and trust. Chinese consumers are highly engaged and increasingly want to understand what is in the products they buy. Companies that communicate clearly and support their products with sound science will be best positioned to build long-term consumer confidence.
Second, innovation that responds to local needs. Chinese consumers are looking for great taste, health and wellness, authenticity, and increasingly sustainability. Successful companies will be those that can translate these preferences into innovative flavour solutions.
Third, sustainability. Around the world, expectations are growing regarding responsible sourcing, environmental performance, and carbon transparency. Chinese companies that integrate these considerations early will strengthen both their domestic and international competitiveness.
Ultimately, I believe these priorities are mutually reinforcing. Consumers want products they can trust, and trust is built through science-based safety, transparency, innovation, and sustainability. Those principles are increasingly universal, whether in China or elsewhere in the world.
中文翻译：我认为有三个关键要点。
第一，透明与信任。中国消费者高度投入，越来越想了解所购产品中的成分。能够清晰沟通、并以可靠科学支撑产品的企业，最有能力建立长期的消费者信任。
第二，响应本地需求的创新。中国消费者追求美味、健康养生、真实本味，以及日益重要的可持续。成功的企业，是那些能把上述偏好转化为创新风味解决方案的企业。
第三，可持续。放眼全球，人们对负责任采购、环境表现与碳透明度的期望正在上升。尽早把这些考量融入自身的中国企业，将同时增强国内与国际竞争力。
归根结底，我认为这些要点是相互促进的。消费者想要值得信赖的产品，而信任建立在基于科学的安全、透明、创新与可持续之上。这些原则在中国与世界其他地方正变得越来越具有普遍性。
Q6｜十二年的观察与下一步合作计划
提问：您多次参加CAME，作为国际食用香料工业组织的代表，您观察到中国市场在全球香料香精产业重心东移过程中扮演的角色有什么变化？本届大会上您觉得最有价值的交流是什么？下一步IOFI与CAFFCI在中国产业支持、碳核算工具推广、消费者教育等方面，有哪些重点合作计划？
Question：You have attended CAME on multiple occasions. As a representative of the international flavour organisation, what changes have you witnessed in the role played by the Chinese market amid the eastward shift of the global flavour and fragrance industry? What do you consider the most valuable exchanges at this conference? What key cooperation plans do IOFI and CAFFCI have for the next phase regarding Chinese industry support, promotion of carbon-accounting tools and consumer education?
Sven Ballschmiede：The most visible change is that China is no longer only the fastest-growing market or a major source of raw materials; it is becoming a source of innovation and a contributor to the global conversation on safety and sustainability. Chinese companies increasingly operate internationally, invest in science and engage with international standards as participants rather than recipients. CAFFCI's growth as a technical counterpart has been central to that.
What I value most at CAME, and this year in Nanjing was no exception, is the opportunity to discuss openly with Chinese companies, regulators and researchers the questions we all face - how to support innovation while maintaining safety, and how to make sustainability measurable - and to see how much common ground there is.
For the next phase, as a member of IOFI, CAFFCI is naturally our first partner in China, and we see four areas where we want to work together. On regulatory harmonization and market access: IOFI and CAFFCI can work together to strengthen dialogue with Chinese and international authorities, promoting science-based regulation, sharing global best practices, and supporting the successful development and market access of flavour products in China and beyond. On industry support: joint training on the IOFI Code of Practice and on international developments at Codex and JECFA, with Chinese-language material. On carbon accounting: dedicated sessions to introduce the Scope 3 Emission Factors Repository to Chinese companies, especially SMEs, and to collect their feedback so the data increasingly reflects Chinese supply chains. On education: science-based communication on what flavorings are, how their safety is ensured and the role they play in healthier products, building on work IOFI and its members already do in other regions. Taken together, these would give our cooperation a concrete work programme rather than an occasional exchange.
中文翻译：最显著的变化是，中国不再只是增长最快的市场或主要的原料来源地，它正在成为创新的来源，并成为全球安全与可持续对话的贡献者。中国企业越来越多地开展国际化经营、投资科学，并以“参与者”而非“接收者”的身份参与国际标准。CAFFCI作为技术伙伴的成长，正是这一变化的中心。
我在CAME最珍视的——今年在南京也不例外——是与中国企业、监管机构和研究人员坦诚讨论我们共同面对的问题：如何在保障安全的同时支持创新，如何让可持续变得可测量——并看到我们之间有多少共识。
下一阶段，作为IOFI的会员协会，CAFFCI自然是我们在中国最重要的合作伙伴。我们看到四个可以携手合作的领域：一是法规协调与市场准入——IOFI与CAFFCI可以共同加强与中外监管机构的对话，推动基于科学的监管，分享全球最佳实践，支持食用香料产品在中国及全球的成功开发与市场准入；二是行业支持——围绕IOFI《执业守则》以及Codex、JECFA的国际动态开展联合培训，并提供中文材料；三是碳核算——举办专题活动，向中国企业尤其是中小企业介绍Scope 3排放因子数据库，并收集反馈，使数据越来越真实地反映中国供应链；四是消费者教育——围绕“食用香料是什么、安全性如何得到保障、在更健康的产品中发挥什么作用”开展基于科学的传播，建立在IOFI及其会员在其他地区已有工作的基础上。综合起来，这些将把我们的合作从“偶尔的交流”升级为一份具体的工作计划。
06 结语：从桂花到碳足迹，一场“可量化”的可持续对话
从开幕式致辞里的桂花意象，到ESG论坛上的碳足迹方法论，Sven Ballschmiede为这届CAME带来了一条完整的逻辑线：香气与风味连接着文化与记忆，而行业的未来建立在科学、创新与可测量的可持续之上。无论是免费开放的Scope 3排放因子数据库，还是“互操作性”的PCF标准主张，其指向都是同一件事——让不同规模、不同地区的企业，都能站上同一条可持续起跑线。
中国香妆协会与IOFI的合作源远流长：CAFFCI是IOFI的会员协会，也是IOFI在中国最重要的合作伙伴。正如Sven在专访中所说，双方在法规协调、行业培训、碳核算工具推广与消费者教育四个领域的合作，将把双方关系从“偶尔的交流”升级为一份具体的工作计划。中国香妆协会将继续以CAME为平台，把国际标准、行业工具与本土实践带到行业面前。明年广州，我们期待更多这样的对话。
