The Company is managing changes in its energy consumption and waste emissions, in accordance with legal requirements.
To reduce the amount of CO2 it emits, the Company has been actively working to install energy-saving equipment and greatly increase the efficiency of existing equipment at all sites including R&D centers. The Company’s energy consumption decreased by 8.6% compared to the FY2021 following changes to the domestic manufacturing situation.
In March 2005, the Company succeeded in reducing the amount of waste it sends to landfills to zero (zero emissions) at all sites in Japan. In addition, the Company is progressing with reducing the amount of waste it generates by recycling 100% of its industrial waste.
To ensure a low-carbon supply chain, since 2010, the Company has carried out surveys of the amount of greenhouse gases emitted by its business partners. The amount of greenhouse gases emitted by all business activities is monitored quantitatively, with the intention that this will lead to reducing greenhouse gas emissions throughout each product’s lifecycle.
