◆ Environmental Education Programs
We deliver our products to automakers across the world. All automakers are subject to the directive of the European Union addressing the end of life for automotive products (ELV Directive) and the Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive (RoHS Directive).
In order to comply with these regulations, we have launched initiatives in reducing and abolishing the use of hazardous substances.
In reducing and abolishing Substances of Concern (SOC), it is imperative to ensure cooperation not only within our Group, but also among our suppliers, who provide parts and materials to us.
We, therefore, have been conducting sessions since March 2005, targeting local suppliers at each of our production bases to present our plans and initiatives in reducing and abolishing SOC (including requesting submission of certificates of non-inclusion of specified substances etc.). With the cooperation of our suppliers, we are complying fully with laws and regulations.
