  • *Target amount of FY2022 only covers waste generated within Japan, which covers 50% of the total revenue,and has successfully met the target in FY2022. Based on monitoring the waste generated in the whole group companies, we set targets only for the top sales revenue generating regions. This will be reviewed to set the target boundary after FY2023.
