E / Environment

ESG stands for Environmental Social and Governance. It is a general term used to measure the sustainability and ethical, environmental impact of businesses on society. Socially responsible investors make investment decisions using ESG criteria. This section discusses our key approaches to managing its "E" aspects.

In addition to reducing the environmental load generated at our company, we are also working to reduce the environmental impact at the consumer end-use stage in the life cycle of the products that we design, develop, and produce.
The majority of CO2 emissions in the life cycle of fossil fuel-based vehicles are accounted for while the vehicle is driven. By improving vehicle fuel efficiency and providing parts for environmentally friendly vehicle such as EVs, we are contributing to the prevention of global warming and helping to reduce CO2 emission generated from vehicle use.

We have established an internal system to register and track products designed and developed in-house that contribute directly or indirectly to environmental conservation. Our formula for calculating the total amount of environmental contribution is based on the contribution per product unit, and the number of units shipped.
