- 4."Zero emissions" challenge
- The SANYO Group is rising to the challenge of attaining zero emissions through reforms based on the management of harmful chemical substances, the reduction of energy and materials use, and the streamlining of operations through individual employee efforts. As a result of this, SANYO will help to minimize the effects of global warming, save decreasing resources, reduce waste, and prevent pollution. Moreover, activities under the SANYO environmental management system must continually be improved, through the active setting and periodic reviewing of targets from a practical, long-term perspective.
- 5.Working with society to improve the global environment
- By actively disclosing information and participating in the improvement of the natural environment, the SANYO Group intends to build good relationships with societies around the world, and actively contribute to the conservation of the global environment.
- Scope:
- The activities mentioned above are to be systematically promoted at all product stages including R&D, design, materials procurement, manufacturing, distribution and sales, consumer use, disposal, and recycling.
