SUSTAINABILITY
We consider people's lives and the future, and contribute to society by making effective use of limited resources and taking measures against global warming to make people's lives more comfortable.
We also provide unique products that are highly safe and disaster-resistant in the field of infrastructure for daily life.
Contributing to a recycling-oriented society
While we are working to reduce waste generated in the production process, we are also promoting the 3Rs (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) by introducing equipment to each factory that recycles defective products within the process and can reuse them in production.
In addition, we are working to reduce the amount of water resources used by understanding how they are used in production activities and installing our own environmental products (GHEX, etc.).
Efforts to realize a decarbonized society
Our company has set a goal of reducing CO2 emissions from business activities by 50% by 2030, with 2013 as the base year, and is promoting energy-saving activities.
As for production lines, we are updating them to energy-saving equipment, while at the same time utilizing digital transformation technology to constantly monitor power consumption with our proprietary power visibility system, and are taking measures to reduce waste during production standby time.
We have also introduced our own environmental products, such as geothermal heat exchange pipes, and are working to utilize renewable energy.
Providing safe and secure water by providing water infrastructure
It is said that one in three people in the world does not have access to safe drinking water. INOAC Living Environment has utilized its wide range of products to promote water infrastructure not only in Japan but also in Southeast Asia, and has supported the supply of safe and secure water. We will continue to aim to create a society where everyone can live healthy lives.
Contributing to social infrastructure with core technologies
Our core technologies of "foaming technology" and "extrusion technology" are not only used in water infrastructure, but also in the transportation infrastructure field, where our on-site urethane foaming method contributes to the restoration of aging and disaster-stricken roads. In addition, our Aqua-Float method, which uses polyethylene pipes, contributes to improving productivity in the fishing industry.
Realizing a fair and equal society for everyone
We are working to improve the workplace to be more comfortable by providing harassment training (sexual harassment, maternity harassment, power harassment) to all employees, setting annual paid leave acquisition targets, monitoring the optimization of working hours, etc.
In addition, in order to promote the active participation of women, we are training female managers and promoting the acquisition of childcare leave regardless of gender.
Contribution to the community
As part of our efforts to revitalize the local community together with the local government and residents, we are working to sponsor and participate in local events. We have also signed a disaster prevention agreement with the local community, and are prepared to cooperate in the event of a disaster.
As part of our efforts to develop the next generation of people who will lead the local community, we work with not only local high schools but also special needs schools, actively arranging internships and factory tours, while also donating to a summer vacation learning support program for local junior high school students.
