AMADA Group and the SDGs

The Sustainable Development Goals (commonly known as SDGs), agreed upon at the UN Summit, contain 17 goals to change the world into a better place by 2030.
The corporate philosophy of AMADA Group is to grow together with our customers and employees and contribute to the international community by conducting sound corporate activities. By treating all the people involved in our business and the global environment with respect, we believe that our goals are the same as those set out in the SDGs.

AMADA Group has established this Basic Policy on Sustainability. Based on this, we have clarified key issues that Amada Group should address and initiatives to solve them. Additionally, the Group also decided on eight SDGs to focus on and contribute to through these activities.

Through these activities, AMADA Group will play an active role in building a sustainable society, working to achieve the SDGs and increase corporate value.
