Expansion of Environmentally Friendly Products
Green Related Products
The Fujikura Group conducts lifecycle assessments of its products to increase their environmental performance. Specifically, we assess the eco-friendliness of our products throughout their lifecycle (procurement of materials, manufacture, use and disposal) at their planning, development and design stages.
We set the goal of green related product registration to more than 60 annually.

Under our Green Product certification system, which we have established to foster the development of more environmentally compatible products, we certify products that are even more environmentally friendly than Green Mind Products as Green Products. We label Green Products with the Green Project mark and approve the use of this mark according to the rules for ISO 14021 Type II environmental labeling. |
