Mabuchi Group Environmental Activities
"Mabuchi Group Environmental Activities" is an initiative in which activity measures and achievements that contribute to the reduction of environmental impact are solicited from all Mabuchi Group sites, and outstanding activities are awarded after review by the Environmental Management Committee at the Headquarters.
In 2022, a total of 89 applications were received from 15 sites under the activity theme of "CO2 emissions reduction," and various measures were implemented. We will continue to expand our contribution to the global environment through Mabuchi Group environmental activities by promoting the proposal and implementation of measures to reduce environmental impact at each Mabuchi Group site.
Examples of Jiangmen Mabuchi's Activities
At Jiangmen Mabuchi, a production base located in China, power consumption was significantly reduced by optimizing the plant layout to save space and by shutting down air conditioning and other equipment that is no longer needed.
Environmental Communication with Society
Environmental symbiosis in the community
A “bio-garden” has been established in the front of the Headquarters site based on the concept of environmental symbiosis in the community. It is designed to restore the natural environment of Matsudo-city, where the Headquarters is located, to the Matsuhidai Industrial Park. Considering the impact of non-native species on the local ecosystem, the goal of the bio-garden is to restore the original ecosystem by planting wildflowers that have traditionally grown around Matsudo-city. Additionally, we joined the Biodiversity Chiba Corporate Network as a part of our commitment to biodiversity. The Biodiversity Chiba Corporate Network is a collaboration between the prefectural government of Chiba, NPOs, NGOs and other supporting organizations to share biodiversity-related information, expertise and problems with the goal of promoting the biodiversity efforts of the companies participating in the network.
