EXEDY Group's Sustainability Activities

Environmental Performance Data

At EXEDY Group, we proactively implement measures to reduce CO2 emissions and waste in our products and the production process.

Our Successes in 2020 and Our Targets for 2021

Objective	2020		2021
	Our Target	What We Accomplished	Our Target
Energy Saving Activities (as per the energy conservation law) 1% reduction compared to previous year	54.9 tons of CO₂/100 Mil. JPY	53.9 tons of CO₂/100 Mil. JPY (+2.8% compared to previous year)	53.8 tons of CO₂/100 Mil. JPY
Promote the Use of the 3Rs*² to Reach Our Goal of Zero Emissions	2.46 tons of CO₂/100 Mil. JPY	2.20 tons of CO₂/100 Mil. JPY (+3.6% compared to previous year)	2.17 tons of CO₂/100 Mil. JPY
Develop Products that Improve Fuel Efficiency	The development of a variety of fuel-efficient products	Mass production and delivery complete	The development of a variety of fuel-efficient products
Reduce, Abolish and Control the Use of Environmentally Hazardous Substances	Continue to base our environmental management on PRTRs ・Uphold laws and regulations for products and the environment ・Strengthen our system for managing the chemicals used on our products	Reported to government and JAPIA *⁴, Emergency response training	Management based on PRTR, comply with environmental regulations, strengthen product chemical substance management system

*1　Basic Unit: CO2 emissions ÷ sales (in hundreds of millions of yen)
*2　3Rs: Recycle, Reduce, Reuse
*3　PRTR: Pollutant Release and Transfer Registers (A system used to gather and disperse information on the release of toxic substances from industrial facilities etc. to the environment)
*4　JAPIA: Japan Auto Parts Industries Association

Material Balance

In order to limit the energy and materials we use for manufacturing our products, we visualize the environmental burden of our production process. Knowing the exact numbers helps us reducing our environmental burden.
