The objective of the product's environmental assessment is to "avoid releasing products with large environmental load", and to achieve this, the product's sustainability is assessed for the entire product life cycle from 8 large categories. These environmental assessments are conducted during the Design Reviews performed at each development step, and the product development can move on to the next level only by passing the standard. Amada has been implementing this environmental assessment system since 1998.
Amada position "green procurement", procuring materials with small environmental load, as one of our important environment conservation activities.
Our products are not subject to the RoHS directives enforced since Jul. 2006, but we promote the non-use of RoHS regulated substances due to the fact that the regulated substances may come in contact with our customers' products that are made with Amada machines.
*RoHS directive: a European derived initiative in which the elimination of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment is the key objective
