Our policy is in line with the Canon Group’s Environmental Charter and the Canon Corporate Philosophy of Kyosei. Kyosei aims to achieve corporate growth and development while contributing to the prosperity of the world and the happiness of mankind.

Our environmental policy

We believe that care for the environment is essential for the fortune of our company. We continuously strive to improve our environmental performance and minimize environmental impact as much as possible.

Together with our stakeholders, we have defined a set of materiality topics for our company. The most important global environmental issues that impact a sustainable future for our company are:

Climate change

We work to minimize the carbon footprint of our products throughout their lifecycle

A transition plan is in place to replace all use of natural gas by electricity

Minimal environmental impact is one of our purchasing criteria

Resource depletion and pollution

We aim to use circular materials in our products and facilities

We aim to minimize the amount of virgin materials and we optimize reuse of products, components, parts and materials

We aim to minimize ink consumption of our products and avoid waste at our customer

We aim to minimize water consumption, waste and emissions at our production facilities

We comply with all applicable environmental laws and regulations, as well as the Canon Group environmental assurance policies. We allocate the necessary resources for compliance and environmental management of our products and operations.

For our products, we strive to gain 3rd party recognition for the environmental performance by fulfilling the criteria from international environmental labels and standards.

To minimize the environmental impact of our company we have established the following in our operations:

We operate an environmental management system to improve our environmental performance. In our environmental management system, an energy management system is included. The management system is continuously improved.

We improve energy efficiency at our premises, plants and equipment based on cost effectiveness.

We use green electricity at our manufacturing sites, partly by self-generated solar power. Heating of our buildings is partly based on geothermal energy.

We promote and support biodiversity at our sites and we compensate losses of natural habitats caused by our site developments.

We increase the environmental awareness of our employees and encourage environmental protection initiatives on corporate and individual level.

Earth Hour participation

Annually in March, the Earth Hour event is held worldwide. Earth Hour was initiated by the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) in 2007. Individuals, communities and businesses are encouraged to turn off the lights for one hour as a symbol for their commitment to the planet.

On Saturday 27 March 2026, for the 11th consecutive year, we supported this initiative by switching off non-essential lights at all our premises. Each year, we encourage our employees to participate in this action at home too.
