Environmental Management Action Guidelines
Fujikura Group Environmental Management Action Guidelines, 4th/5th version
The 2015 financial year represents the final year of the Fujikura Group's 2015 Medium-term Business Plan. We have spared no effort in promoting the actions needed to achieve the goals of the 4th version of the Fujikura Group Environmental Management Action Guidelines, which was based on this medium-term plan. In addition, the 2020 Medium-term Business Plan for 2016 to 2020 has been established, and this will act as a basis for the formulation of the 5th version of the Fujikura Group Environmental Management Action Guidelines. This marks the commencement of activities relating to the new medium-term business targets.

ITEM | Target for the period from fiscal 2011 to 2015 | Result in fiscal 2015 | Evaluation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| The Environment | Mitigation of global warming | Reduce total CO2 emissions. Japan: Keep CO2 emissions in fiscal 2015 below 4.3% from the fiscal 2012 level |
CO2 emissions at domestic production/non-production sites reduced by 1% compared to 2012 financial year | ○ |
| Energy conservation: Improve per-unit energy use. Plants in Japan: Improve per-unit energy use by at least 2.0% every year Offices in Japan: Improve per-unit energy use by at least 1.0% every year Overseas plants: Improve per-unit energy use by at least 1.0% every year Overseas offices: Improve per-unit energy use by at least 1.0% every year |
Energy consumption rate with energy conservation Domestic roductivity consumption rate: 0.8% improvement annually Office: 0.8% improvement annually Overseas productivity consumption rate,: 11.0% improvement annually Office: 2.2% improvement annually |
△ | ||
| Improve per-unit energy use for the transportation of products by at least 1% every year in Japan | Consumption rate average over past five years reduced 1.25% | ○ | ||
| Zero waste emissions | Achieve perfect Zero emissons (no landfill waste) in Japan Oversea: Grasp the situation of each country and set goals |
Zero emissions achieved through elimination of landfill wasteat domestic production bases (April 2016) | ○ | |
| Reduce the total use of packaging materials by at least 7,000 tons annually in Japan | Goal achieved with 9,153 tons deemed to be reduced owing to reusable shipping cartons, and reuse of packing materials and boxes at domestic production bases | ○ | ||

| Reduction in emissions of volatile organic compounds(VOCs) | Reduce atmospheric emissions of major VOCs by at least 10% relative to fiscal 2010 in Japan | Atmospheric emission of primary VOCs at domestic production bases: reduced 26% compared to 2010 | ○ | |
| Expansion of environmentally friendly products | Register annually at least 60 products as environmentally friendly products (by conducting environmental assessments on the products) |
Registered 64 environmentally-friendly products (412 for period from 2011 to 2015) | ○ | |
| Preventing contamination and promoting green procurement | Manage chemical substances contained in products across the supply chain (Promote green procurement and the management of substances of very high concern) |
Began using new system for management of substances of environmental concern; currently aiming for development into related departments internally | ○ | |
| Biodiversity conservation | Work to conserve biodiversity by setting targets in line with the guidelines on biodiversity | Participated in Tokyo Metropolitan “Edo Green Restoration Project”, with 2 years of activities completed. Reports sent to Tokyo Metropolis regarding employee-executed biological monitoring results for Millennium Woods (biotope). Further: new development of biological assessments, etc., at domestic offices | ○ |
