Priority issue 02
Promote Environmental Conservation
Our Vision
Environmental problems such as climate change and ocean pollution are global challenges, and to sustainably develop our society and businesses, we must preserve our planet’s environment. We will contribute to promote environmental conservation by providing solutions committed to reduce environmental impact including new energy development support and carefully reducing the effects on the environment caused by our business activities.
Activity Targets
1.Pursue a Carbon-free Society
By contributing to the development of secondary batteries such as all-solid-state battery and air battery, electric transportation means including EV(Electric Vehicle), and renewable energy, we engage in the reduction of CO2 emission. We also review the company’s logistics and actively reduce CO2 emission in our supply chain.
2.Achieve a Recycle-oriented Society
Repair and other after-sales services in line with customers’ needs are to be enhanced to maintain the performance of customers’ products, and to improve operational efficiency in the customers’ development and production environment.
Moreover, we review our packing materials and pay attention to reducing any environmental hazardous substances which will adversely affect our recycling process.
3.Restore Ocean Health
We provide undersea observation solutions effective for ocean surveys, and contribute to help stop ocean pollution and to get back our rich marine ecosystem.
