Toyo Seikan Group established its environmental policy in 2002 and has been actively working to protect and improve the quality of the global environment through its business activities.
In 2021, we changed our goal from realizing a "low-carbon society" to realizing a "carbon-free society" aiming for carbon neutrality by 2050, and revised our medium- to long-term target for fiscal 2030 upward. By specifying measures to reduce environmental impact, we will increase effectiveness and steadily promote efforts to achieve this goal.
