Initiatives and contribution to SDGs :
We develop and provide products that consume less electricity when they are used and are smaller and lighter, and achieve energy saving and greenhouse gas reduction in the end products of customers who use these products. At the same time, through environmental reports, we actively promote products that contribute to solving social issues.

Initiatives and contribution to SDGs :
We will continue measures such as reducing electricity consumption by optimizing air conditioning for clean rooms and reducing city gas usage by increasing the collection and utilizing of waste heat. Through this, we have saved energy and reduced greenhouse gases.

Initiatives and contribution to SDGs :
We will continue emission reduction measures such as collecting and reusing PFC and introducing emission removal equipment to new facilities. By cutting down on PFC, which affects climate change about 10,000 times more than CO2, we have achieved a reduction in greenhouse gases.

Initiatives and contribution to SDGs :
We have made water resources sustainable by continuing measures such as reducing the amount of industrial water used by optimizing how pure water production equipment is operated, using well water, reusing and recycling water. In addition, to ensure the availability of sanitary water and to conserve the ocean and marine resources, the water resources we use are made cleaner than they were before being discharged.

Initiatives and contribution to SDGs :
[Overall waste generation]
We will continue measures such as minimizing the consumption of resources such as metals and resins by improving our production process, reducing the amount of sludge generated by optimizing the amount of chemicals used, and promoting the recycling of waste.
[Waste volume]
(The waste volume is remaining after valuable materials are subtracted from overall waste generation.)
We will continue measures to promote the conversion of metal materials and other valuable resources. This will ensure a sustainable form of production and consumption.

Initiatives and contribution to SDGs :
We will continue measures to ‘make reductions during use’ such as by optimizing the amount of chemical substances used and improving the manufacturing process, as well as measures to ‘make reductions during emission’ such as by reuse, recovery, and proper treatment of chemical substances, detoxification through exhaust gas treatment and wastewater treatment, and removal by coagulation and sedimentation. This reduces the risks to people's health and the environment associated with chemical emissions.

Initiatives and contribution to SDGs :
We will continue activities such as protecting rare animals and plants, developing a biotope within plant premises, forestation work, activities to beckon fireflies back to rivers, and restoring abandoned rice terraces. Through these activities, we aim to protect and restore the ecosystem and ensure a more thorough understanding of the significance of our biodiversity conservation activities among neighboring residents and school children.

Initiatives and contribution to SDGs :
We will actively disclose information about our environmental activities to our stakeholders through all kinds of media such as by way of environmental reports and environment-related websites, etc. In addition, at each plant, we aim for a symbiosis between the plant and the area by promoting communication with the local community such as by way of dialogue and interaction with residents and education.
