Green Products - Environmentally-Conscious Products

• Green Product Accreditation Criteria (fiscal 2007)

Furthermore, we accredit products that have achieved top environmental performance in the industry as Superior GPs and trend-setting products towards achieving a sustainable society as Super GPs. We are making the GP accreditation criteria stricter each year, thereby ensuring continuous improvement in the GHG efficiency^*1 of our products. In addition, we will endeavor to improve our resource efficiency^*2 and appropriately manage chemical substances toward the development of products with even higher environmental performance.

• *1 GHG efficiency = (Product life product functions)GHG emissions over the entire life cycle
• *2 Resource efficiency = (Product life product functions)Amount of non-circulating resources over the entire life cycle
