Our management philosophy is to help create an affluent future through sustainable growth by developing and providing distinctive products, technologies, and services.
Under this philosophy, we consider sustainability to be a key management strategy for achieving the dual aims of “contributing to solving social issues through our business activities” and “increasing our corporate value through sustainable growth.” Specifically, we are committed to promoting sustainability in the context of the following material issues.

• Tackle challenges to achieve carbon-neutrality in 2050, aiming at the conservation of a sustainable global environment and realization of a decarbonized society
• Provide products, technologies, and services that contribute to decarbonization and circular economy while creating new business opportunities to contribute to the realization of a sustainable society
• Create values through management focusing on human capital, such as DE&I, and human resource development
• Implement fair and equitable purchasing, ensuring the suppliers’ commitment for human rights, environmental protection, etc.
• Increase corporate value over the medium- to long-term through constructive communication with the stakeholders

We are committed to sustainability-oriented management in order to solve social issues and enhance corporate value in a sustainable manner. In 2022, we established the Sustainability Committee, which is chaired by the President and CEO. Six task forces have been established under this committee, each of which promotes initiatives to address the material issues identified in the sustainability management policy, while the committee discusses each initiative from a comprehensive perspective.
