Japan Semiconductor Environmental Policy

Philosophy

Guided by the Toshiba Group's management philosophy, "Committed to People, Committed to the Future," we are contributing to the achievement of a sustainable society and a new future, through environmental management aimed at creating a circular economy in a decarbonized society in symbiosis with nature.

Policies

Our company operates two manufacturing facilities: Iwate Operations, located in an area blessed with beautiful natural scenery, including the Ou and Kitakami mountain ranges and the Kitakami River, and Oita Operations, situated near Mount Takao and the Ono River. We believe it is our mission to respect these abundant natural environments.
Both operations facilities are deeply rooted in their local communities and strive to foster cooperation and solidarity with local residents. With the SDGs* in mind, we aim to contribute to society by providing semiconductor products, while practicing environmentally conscious corporate management from a lifecycle perspective across all business processes, from procurement through manufacturing to disposal.
