Waste Reduction and Reuse of Waste as Resources
In order to reduce waste, we are implementing various initiatives,such as replacing cardboard boxes for packaging delivered parts with reusable plastic boxes, and having pick up wooden pallets picked up by shipping companies. All waste from the Hachioji Plant is recycled, by means including thermal recycling. We are also working to increase the recycling rate at the Tsuchiura Plant by switching to a vendor that treats liquid waste for recycling.
Reduction of Resource (Paper) Use
In order to reduce our use of paper, we are creating an environment in which work can be performed during every process within the company using electronic data.
Spreading Information about Our Public Relations Activities and IR Initiatives in Digital Formats Without Using Paper
In response to COVID-19, there has been an increase in remote-based dialogue, leading to the widespread provision of various disclosure materials in digital format. Although the number of direct dialogues has been increasing since fiscal 2022, from the perspective of sustainability, we continue to provide materials in digital format as much as possible.
Comprehensive Management System for Multifunction Machines and Printers
In order to reduce costs and improve security, we plan to introduce a comprehensive management system that consolidates the operation and management of multifunction machines and laser printers at all Group companies in Japan. Managing multifunction machines will make it possible to track printing volumes on an individual basis, leading to proactive reductions in paper consumption and TCO* (Total Cost of Ownership).
*TCO
The total of all costs associated with the purchase and maintenance of software and hardware required for a company to introduce an IT system
Initiatives for Creating a Paperless Supply Chain
We have reduced paper distribution through blueprint lending.
In fiscal 2022, we lent blueprints for 721 items, eliminating the need to print and issue documents that would have weighed 2,595 kg
