Reduce CO₂ during manufacture by proposing compact and lightweight products

Conduct activities to proliferate CO₂ reduction by proposing energy-saving measures (proposing energy saving systems and CO₂ reduction products during manufacture and usage)

Promote CO₂ reduction through the sales of products by proposing compact, lightweight products.

We aim to reduce CO₂ emissions and the amount of environmentally hazardous substances used during manufacture by developing products that take into account product assessment, and monitoring the life cycle assessment

Achieve 90% or higher ISO14001 product assessment target score.

Construct a system to monitor CO₂ emissions (from product development to disposal) based on the product life cycle assessment.

Reduce packaging waste by reviewing production and distribution methods

Achieve zero packaging waste and zero packaging costs.

Introduce renewable energy for which the amount of environmentally hazardous substances discharged is low, and aim to reduce CO₂ emissions in power generation

Raise the proportion of renewable energy used relative to the power supply used in factories in Japan by the year 2030.

Aim for plant administration that will not discharge waste and environmentally hazardous substances (enforcement of chemical and drainage control, and compliance with environmental laws)

Recycle all waste (recycling, and thermal recycling).

Switch to alternatives to CFCs with a low warming factor.

Establish voluntary control standards for drainage control, and enforce control.

Enforce control by the ISO14001 environmental management system.

Aim to reduce CO₂ emissions by adopting initiatives (use of low-emission gas vehicles, implementation of remote working, etc.) in the office and business

① Eliminate gasoline-powered vehicles in our fleet by switching to hybrid or electric.

② Consolidate locations and reduce consumption of electricity, gas, and paper, as well as introduce satellite offices, utilize rental spaces, and implement remote working.

Share the environmental initiatives of SMC with partner companies, and aim to reduce emissions and use of environmentally hazardous substances by promoting green procurement

Reduce emissions and use of environmentally hazardous substances in products (continue activities to reduce environmentally hazardous substances under ISO14001, and achieve the reduction target every year).

In the Yamatsuri and Tono factories, we aim to organize greening activities and activities to protect the natural environment around the factories with the participation of our employees, and administer the factories in harmony with the surrounding natural environment

Implement greening activities and activities to protect the natural environment around the factories, leading to more effective activities, etc. in the future while taking into account points for improvement.

Implement tree planting activities with the participation of factory employees in Japan

Implement greening and tree planting activities, leading to more effective activities, etc. in the future while taking into account points for improvement.

Participate in local nature maintenance activities organized by municipalities where the company's factories are located, and conduct activities to protect the natural environment

Continue to participate in conservation activities organized by local municipalities in various factories in Japan, and contribute to forest preservation activities at least twice a year by the year 2030.
