Approach to Environmental Management
Approach to Environmental Management
MISUMI Group is dedicated to delivering value that minimizes resource input and consumption within the industrial automation sector through its business operations. By systematically reducing waste throughout the entire value chain—including among customers and suppliers, the Group contributes to the transition from conventional mass-production, mass-consumption, and mass-disposal models towards a circular economy. This strategy yields indirect environmental benefits by decreasing waste generated across third-party business activities.
Beyond its core business, MISUMI Group implements comprehensive environmental initiatives, including measures to address global warming. The Group promotes sustainability within its own operations as well as throughout the supply chain, including supplier networks. Its environmental management framework covers not only business processes but also product quality and safety, supporting sustainable value creation.
