The Ashimori Group has installed solar power generation equipment on the roofs of some of its factories. At group companies (in India and Mexico), we are striving for decarbonization by using this solar power toward running the factories. In Japan (Yamaguchi Prefecture), we operate as a solar power provider to help reduce environmental impact and contribute to protecting the environment.

Buildings that house the main production lines at the Head Office and Osaka Plant have thermal barrier coating applied to the roofs, creating insulation that lowers the temperature inside. This measure for factory roofs reduces the electricity needed for air conditioning in summer and contributes to mitigating environmental impact.

The Ashimori Group stresses the 3Rs (reduce, reuse, recycle) in its efforts to reduce waste.
The graphs below show the amount of valuable waste, industrial waste, and recyclable materials emitted at the Head Office and Osaka Plant and the Sasayama Plant.

Emission amounts of valuable waste, industrial waste, and recyclable materials

• • Recycling rate = (Amount recycled + valuable waste recovered) / total emissions
• • Valuable waste recovery rate = Valuable waste recovered / total emissions
