Environmental Response
Not only are we intent on global environmental conservation through saving energy and controlling CO2 emissions, but we also take proper care of the local environment around and within our factories.
Consideration for the local environment
We consider and take effective countermeasures against all potential sources of environmental hazards that can affect the local environment around our factories, which include noise, vibration, industrial waste, wastewater, offensive odor and exhaust heat. As a respectable corporate citizen, we are also making positive contributions to community activities in various ways.
Initiatives to make our factories safe and clean
A safe and clean manufacturing environment is a requisite for making high-quality products. At Koyama, all employees come together as one in the ongoing pursuit of a safe and clean factory environment by making improvements to our long-standing manufacturing sites, not to mention new factories. “Eco-friendliness” is also our basic policy when it comes to the adoption of melting furnaces and other new manufacturing facilities and equipment. All these initiatives are directed toward a better environment, producing favorable results in terms of saving energy, controlling CO2 emissions, and recycling of raw materials and waste heat, among others.

These environmental objectives are subject to periodical review and may be revised as needed.
