Environmental Policy

The conservation of the global environment is one of our most important management issues

Basic Environmental Policy

The sustainability of the Earth environment is essential to the continuation of our business. We strive to reduce the negative impact on the environment brought about by our business activities, because we recognize that it constitutes a great risk to our business.
In 2001, we established the Basic Policy on Environmental Conservation and formulated the Environmental Action Plan aiming to improve our environmental management system and minimize the environmental impact.
In 2018, we revised the Environmental Action Plan to meet the current needs of society. We have established targets to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and waste products that will contribute to the environment. We have also partially revised the Basic Policy on Environmental Conservation.

Basic Environmental Policy

[Principle]

While recognizing the conservation of the global environment as one of the most important management issues, we will act with consideration for environmental conservation in all aspects of our business activities.

[Policies]

  1. We will make efforts to prevent environmental contamination and reduce negative environmental impacts by complying with laws and regulations, assessing the impact of our business activities on the environment, including with regard to biodiversity, and setting necessary self-standards.
  2. We will improve the organization and system to promote the environmental preservation activities at each site and company of the Mitsui Kinzoku Group.
  3. We will strive to address climate change and reduce wastes and the emission of environmental pollutants by setting targets.
  4. As a commitment to sustainable use of natural resources and conservation of biodiversity, we will actively promote the introduction of environmentally-friendly technologies, materials, and the development of environmentally conscious products and solutions.
  5. We will continuously improve the environmental management system by regularly implementing an audit.
  6. We will raise awareness of all people working in the Mitsui Kinzoku Group by emphasizing the importance of environmental conservation through environmental education and awareness raising.

These policies apply to all the directors, officers and employees of Mitsui Kinzoku and its Group companies.

Environmental Management System

We have established the Supreme Safety & Environmental Meeting as a place to deliberate and determine the most important matters related to safety and the environment.
Guidelines and action plans determined at the Meeting are spread to each site by the Environmental and Safety Supervisory Manager (General manager of the Environmental and Safety Dept.) under the direction of the Chief Environmental and Safety Officer. Each site that operates under ISO14001 has a chief person that serves as the person responsible for managing environmental safety, and who makes sure that the required actions are being reliably executed.
