Effective resource use
Perspective on reducing waste emissions
We strive to protect the global environment by complying with environmental laws, ordinances, and regulations. As part of this, we will actively work on reducing waste, improving efficiency, and reducing and avoiding impacts, in addition to responding to climate change and reducing pollutant emissions.
Reducing waste generation and ensuring appropriate waste treatment
In our business activities, we use large volumes of various materials, including stretch films, cardboard, flexible containers, lumber, and plastic. To make the most effective use of limited resources, we seek to reduce waste generation and to reuse and recycle materials.
Waste is disposed of in compliance with all local ordinances. As required, we retain manifests that clearly indicate volumes of industrial waste and undertake related internal audits.
In addition, the amount of waste in FY2023 was 103,326 tons, and we aim to improve waste emissions in FY2024 compared to the previous year. Furthermore, we process our waste appropriately. Some of it is recycled, and we will promote further recycling in the future.
Water conservation initiatives
The Company strives to conserve water on a day-to-day basis to protect and sustainably use water resources. The volume of water we used in FY2023 totaled 256,092 cubic meters.
