In the future, we will be making initiatives to achieve zero emissions in our overseas production sites as well.

From the beginning, ROHM has committed itself to eliminating resources that do not add value to our products. This policy not only increases corporate profits, it also cuts waste. As for inherent waste that is an integral part of our business, ROHM is studying alternatives for reclaiming waste as resources and/or recycling waste for new uses. We are certain that through waste recycling and reuse, inherent waste will be reduced significantly to create a sustainable society.

The ROHM Group has been promoting the recycling of waste material with the objective of obtaining zero emissions by 2005 with a recycling rate of 99%. As a result, the Japanese domestic group companies achieved zero emissions by FY 2004. In the future, we will be making initiatives to achieve zero emissions in our overseas production sites as well.
