CONTRIBUTE TO THE GLOBAL ENVIRONMENT

Environmentally Conscious Initiatives

The Noritake Group is focusing on manufacturing activities for environmentally friendly products and services.
We conduct pollution control activities and chemical substance management to prevent chemicals and other substances from contaminating rivers and soil, and to ensure that there are no adverse health effects on people.
We are developing products and services with the aim of achieving a 10% or higher ratio of net sales of environment- friendly products in FY2024.

Environmentally-friendly products

The target ratio of net sales for FY2022, the first year of our 12th Three-year Environmental Action Plan was 10%, and we achieved 7%.

Chemical substance management

We conduct chemical substance management that meets environmental-related laws for the Noritake Group. Chemical substance management consists of two parts: Screening and approval rules to control new use of harmful chemical substances, and monitoring the amount of chemical substances used and transferred. In this way, we are visualizing the conditions of chemical substances used and working to reduce the use and emission of hazardous substances.
We also issue and operate the "Chemical Contamination Prevention Control Standard" that uniquely defines the structural standards and inspection standards of related facilities for the storage and use of harmful chemical substances, and we are striving to prevent the dispersal and leakage of chemical substances.

In order to realize the "sustainable society" that the Noritake Group is aiming for, we are promoting initiative for biodiversity aimed at preserving nature and ecosystems. We are promoting greening activities at our business sites, and in FY2022 we conducted an ecosystem survey at "Noritake Garden" adjacent to our headquarters. We will continue to survey the area regularly in order to provide an environment where wild birds and insects can flourish.

Water resource conservation

In order to conserve important water resources, the Noritake Group strives to prevent pollution of rivers and other areas properly managing wastewater from its production processes. In factories that generate a large amount of waste liquid, wastewater from the process is collected so that hazardous substances do not spread into rivers and other areas, and some process wastewater such as washing water is recycled.
