Initiatives for achieving carbon neutrality

We recognize that the initiative of carbon neutrality is important for realizing a sustainable society, and we are actively promoting this initiative by positioning our Seki, Gifu, Higashiura, and Electronic Components Plants as four model plants.
In addition to actively promoting energy conservation so far, in FY2022 all four smart-company plants completed the introduction of electricity generated from renewable energy sources, reduced CO2 emissions due to energy to virtually zero, and achieved carbon neutrality. We began operating an on-site solar power generation system at our Gifu Plant in May 2023 and at our Seki Plant in August 2023.
With these activities, we are able to deliver products manufactured in carbon-neutral processes to customers.
