Reduction of Waste and Resource Conservation

Waste Generation in Business Activities

Reducing the amount of waste generated

In fiscal 2007, the total amount of waste generated was reduced by 14% in Japan and 4% outside Japan compared with fiscal 2006. Expanded use of returnable containers in place of corrugated cardboards to deliver components and units reduced the total amount of waste generated.
Zero emissions of waste were maintained at seven production sites in Japan in fiscal 2007. Insufficient conditions for reduction in the amount of waste for final disposal through incineration facilities in relevant countries and regions outside Japan resulted in an average of 5.7% final disposal rate at production sites outside Japan.
