Environmental Protection Initiatives

  1. 01
    A heart of gratitude for
    the blessings of nature
  2. 02
    The spirit of “mottainai”
    (don't waste) towards the
    earth's resources, and
    the desire to make
    effective use of them
  3. 03
    A heart of compassion for
    our irreplaceable
    global environment

Basic Philosophy

As stated in our management philosophy of “a life that is alive because it is being kept alive”, we are indeed kept alive by the blessings of nature.With the protection of the global environment being said to be the most important issue facing humanity in the 21st century, we will continue to promote initiatives that are conscious of environmental protection, with the following three minds at their core.


  • A heart of gratitude forthe blessings of nature
  • The spirit of “mottainai” (don't waste) towards the earth's resources, and the desire to make effective use of them
  • A heart of compassion for our irreplaceable global environment



Environmental Policy (ISO14001 certification obtained)

  • We will comply with environmental laws, regulations, and agreements, and where possible, we will set our own standards and work to maintain and improve them.
  • We will set environmental targets and review them as necessary in order to continuously promote environmental protection, including pollution prevention.
  • We will strive to reduce environmental impact and prevent pollution by taking into account the environment in our production processes, and by working to conserve resources, save energy, recycle and reduce waste in all of our corporate activities.
  • We will promote comprehensive initiatives (ensuring quality, conserving usage, preventing wastewater pollution) for water, which is particularly precious to us, on a long-term, ongoing basis.
  • In order to ensure the effectiveness of this policy, we will carry out educational and awareness-raising activities aimed at raising employees' environmental awareness, and ensure that they are fully informed.

This policy will be made public outside the company via our website.
