Environmental Policy

Structure for Promoting Environmental Conservation Measures

In September 1999, our Sanda Factory obtained ISO 14001 certification. The Fukuchiyama Factory was also certified in September 2002. We have an ongoing environmental improvement program at these two sites. We have also established an environmental management structure at the two sites. A Global Environment Committee chaired by the executive officer responsible for the environment oversees environmental management, working to reduce our impact on the community and local environment.
Furthermore, each site has established an Environmental Management Committee with the aim of reducing the environmental impact of our business activities and developing environmentally conscious products. These initiatives are reported to the ESG/SDGs Promotion Committee, chaired by the President, to enhance the effectiveness of each committee, and management reviews are conducted at the Management Meeting and meetings of other bodies to ensure continuous improvement.

Environmental Audit

Our Sanda Factory and Fukuchiyama Factory, both of which are ISO 14001 certified sites, underwent regular ISO 14001:2015 audits to verify that the environmental management system is being operated appropriately and that continuous improvements are being made.
In addition, the Sanda Factory and Fukuchiyama Factory voluntarily conduct internal environmental audits every year at all departments to confirm environmental initiatives and to ensure continuous improvement of the environmental management system.

Environment Risk Management

We perform regular disaster drills organized by the Disaster Prevention and Pollution Control Subcommittee to prepare for situations that may have a severe impact on life, property, and our living environment.
We will continue to strengthen our life-saving drills, the initial phase of our BCP.

Compliance with Measures for Laws, Regulations and Other Obligations

We always obtain the most up-to-date information to ensure we comply with environmental laws, agreed values of municipalities, etc., clearly setting out all compliance requirements in the “Environmental laws, regulations, and other requirements list.” We also conduct regular surveillance and measurement to ensure scheduled reporting and recordkeeping to prevent violation of laws and regulations and contamination of the local environment.
We conduct regular surveillance and measurement to improve matters of concern and to maintain and preserve the environment.

Response to Toxic Substances

Under the provisions of the Pollutant Release and Transfer Register (PRTR), which requires companies to manage specified chemical substances that have an environmental impact, we notify the competent authorities every year regarding these substances. We also have an ongoing program of considering switching to non-specified alternatives and cutting usage, emission, and transfer of specified substances.
