[ Business activities ]
Promote energy saving and resource saving in business processes to reduce CO₂ emissions

Prevent global warming by promoting energy saving “-15.6%” against the benchmark year^*2”

Reduce by 1.4% from the previous year (domestic Amada Group)
(+0.3% against the benchmark year)

Reduced CO₂ emissions at major domestic bases by 9.14% relative to the year before
(-7.6% against the benchmark year)

Reduce CO₂ emissions at major domestic bases by 3.9% relative to the year before
(+ 4.8% against the benchmark year)

Promote effective use of limited resources and contribute to a recycling society

(1)Achieve “clean factories”

• Development of material flow cost^*3 accounting and highly efficient production
• Waste reduction based on the resource-saving roadmap (Fujinomiya, ATP, AMT Toki)

• Introduction and horizontal development of material flow cost accounting (Amada Tool Precision, AMT Toki)
• Improvements to extend the life of cutting fluid in cutting (AMT Toki)

• Horizontal development of material flow cost accounting
• Continuous improvements to IN-OUT measures

• Development of material flow cost accounting and highly efficient production
• Continuous improvements to IN-OUT measures

(2)Achieve/maintain zero-emission factories (6 main facilities)

• Less than 1% a year of landfilled solid waste (relative to total waste)

• Sustain zero emission (ATP, Fujinomiya, Komaki)
• IN measures (reduce packaging materials, shift to returnable case system) (ATP, Fujinomiya, AMT Toki, AEG)

• Sustained zero emission (ATP: 0.02%, Fujinomiya: 0.236%, Komaki: 0.0%)
• IN measures: continued with reduction of packaging materials used in product delivery (ATP, Fujinomiya, AMT Toki, AEG)
• OUT measures：found recycling channels for landfill waste (Ono)

• Achieve zero-emission at 4 plants (ATP, Fujinomiya, Ono, AMT Toki)
• Continue with IN/OUT measures

Strengthen activities related to control of regulated chemical substances

(1)
Product development with green procurement (Total abolition of RoHS directive^*4 chemicals)

Fully abolish RoHS directive chemical substances

• Completed the survey for RoHS Directive compliance for items procured from overseas
• Implemented product assessment (26 new models)
• Released the Japanese version of Green Procurement Guidelines

Total elimination of chemical substances regulated by the RoHS Directive

• Sheet metal and machine tools for EU export to be RoHS-compliant

(2)
Reduce the use of regulated chemical substances “Appropriately control chemical substances, and reduce their use within the manufacturing process”(PRTR^*5, VOC^*6)

Strengthen environmental risk management

• Strengthen measurement/monitoring of hazardous materials storage/control
• Strengthen compliance including laws and regulation compliance assessment

• Maintained Hazardous Materials storage management and supervision (at each site)
• Strengthened storage management with the new Hazardous Materials Storage Depository (Isehara)
• Formulated Waste Guidelines (provisional) (Isehara)

Strengthen environmental risk management

• Strengthen compliance for waste
• Regulate management through register of laws and regulations, and compliance checks through compliance assessment (Nicotec Urawa, AEG)

• Reduce PRTR regulated chemical substances
• Promote VOC reduction activities

• Introduced Toluene-free paint (Fujinomiya)
• Boosted paint efficiency and solvent recycling (AMT Toki)

• Use toluene-free paint across the group (AEG, AMT Toki)
• Test TX-free paint, and improve paint technologies (Fujinomiya)
• Improve operations through solvent recycling (AMT Toki)

Preserve and regenerate biodiversity to pass on this soil rich in natural blessings in good shape to future generations.

Growing the “Amada Forest” which is beneficial for conserving biodiversity

• Assess the Amada Forest development project, implement survey
• Formulate the Amada Group “Biodiversity Guidelines for Action”

• Thinned the trees and planted greens along the entrance based on the Amada Forest project
• Created the Biotope (AMT Toki)
• Developed the on-site ecosystem map (Isehara)
• Formulated the Amada Group’s “Biodiversity Action Guidelines) (provisional)

• Develop Amada Forest project (Fujinomiya)
• Implement Biodiversity activities in partnership with the local community (Isehara)
