“Protect the environment and work to conserve limited resources” is part of our management philosophy.
Bearing the importance of conserving the global environment in mind, we will conduct our operations so as to
reduce environmental impact in all our business areas, thereby helping to achieve a society that can develop
sustainably and a healthy global environment.
Environmental policies
TOKYO KEIKI has contributed to society by using
electronics technology to commercialize the functions of
human senses, such as measurement, cognition, and
control.
We have always given full consideration to the
environment in the course of our business activities, but
we have now reaffirmed the importance of environmental
conservation on a global scale. As such, in order to pass
on a rich natural environment and limited resources to
the next generation, we will go one step further and work
with the participation of all employees to conserve and
improve the environment to the extent technically and
economically possible.
- We will evaluate the environmental impact of all our
business activities and the products we provide
to our customers at during production, use, and
disposal, and strive to save resources and energy,
reduce waste, and prevent pollution.
- We will establish and maintain a PDCA cycle by
setting environmental objectives and targets for
these initiatives.
- In addition to complying with environmental laws
and regulations, ordinances, industry codes of
conduct, and agreements with local communities,
we will establish and maintain independent
management standards wherever possible.
- We will establish an environmental management
system in which all employees participate, using
audits and reviews to make improvements on an
ongoing basis.
- We will provide education to all employees to
improve their awareness of the environment and
the environmental management system, as well
as asking our affiliates and partner companies for
their understanding and cooperation.
- These environmental policies shall be publicly
disclosed.
Environmental policies at our plants
Our Nasu, Yaita, and Sano plants have drawn up their own
environmental policies based on the company-wide policies,
taking into account the characteristics of the manufacturing
they perform and consideration for the surrounding
environment. In order to put our basic philosophy into
practice, the environmental managers of each plant have
drawn up environmental policies and is working actively to
acquire various certifications, including ISO 14001.

Organizational structure
The Environment Committee is in charge of company-wide environmental policy, and the Environmental Management
Subcommittee has been established beneath it. The head of the Human Resources & General Affairs Department chairs
both committees, and the managers of the Nasu, Yaita, and Sano plants serve as committee members.
Environmental targets
The Group’s Environmental Management Subcommittee,
headed by the head of the Human Resources & General
Affairs Department, sets targets for environmental activities,
draws up environmental plans, and puts them into practice.
In addition to company-wide targets, targets have also
been set for each plant, with efforts ongoing at each.
New TOKYO KEIKI Group environmental targets
As part of the environmental management system, our
Group has long worked to reduce its overall energy
usage. In FY 2021, we aimed to engage in management
that is even more environmentally and socially conscious
than ever before. The newly established Sustainability
Office took the lead in re-evaluating our Group’s mediumto
long-term greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction
targets, which were then deliberated on and approved
by the Sustainability Committee. In line with the thinking
behind the Japanese government’s GHG emissions
reduction targets (in the industry sector) for FY 2030, our
new target for FY 2030 for Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions
is a 37% reduction in comparison with FY 2013.
Business-specific targets
For each plant, reduction targets are set for failure costs,
electricity consumption, waste, material consumption,
etc., and KPIs are set to serve as indicators for meeting
these targets. By implementing a PDCA cycle to promote
initiatives aimed at achieving these KPIs, we are working
to reduce our environmental impact.
