Coexistence with Nature
Modern society is maintained by receiving a variety of ecosystem “services” from nature, including circulation and regeneration of materials in the atmosphere, water, and soil. The Tsubaki Group is helping to protect the ecosystem by reducing the environmental impact of our manufacturing processes and by developing products in harmony with the global environment. Furthermore, we are striving to improve the environment and conserve the ecosystem by directly cooperating with the environmental conservation activities taking place all around us in our day-to-day business.
Greening Initiatives in Factories

The “greening rate” based on the area of green space and the “total greening rate” based on the area of green space plus the area related to environmental facilities are shown in the table below, as of March 31, 2022.
