2023 Sustainability Report

Publication of the Sustainability Report

Our company is promoting activities based on the “2050 CARBON NEUTRAL” announced in June 2021 with the aim of “realizing a decarbonized society and promoting SDGs.”
In FY2023, Japan’s average temperature deviation was +1.29°C, the highest since statistics were started in 1898.
Due to abnormal droughts and lack of rain in many parts of the world, dependence on fossil fuels has increased, it has been reported that global emissions, the main cause of temperature risings, are predicted to reach new highs in the commercial scene.
Therefore, while it is important to accelerate efforts to combat global warming, interest in “environmentally friendly products” is increasing in the market.
As part of our efforts, the entire company has been working together on decarbonization activities and have advanced to the point where we expect to achieve our 2025 target.
Without stopping, we will continue to contribute to the realization of a sustainable society together with our customers through “better system proposals” and “environmentally friendly products”
based on TPS, which is one of our strengths.
