Sustainability
The Living Appliances and Solutions Company, Panasonic Corporation promotes a wide range of environmental and employee-oriented initiatives based on the Panasonic Group's approach to sustainability. We strive to create value for various lifestyles through our example of sustainable business practices.
Environmental Initiatives
Promoting Green Transformation
Through the evolution of recycling-oriented manufacturing and the creation of circular economy business, we aim to achieve both a better life and a sustainable global environment.

Reduction of total resources used

Packaging with less plastic
In addition to reducing the amount of plastic used in the products, we are switching from the conventional plastic-intensive packaging to using recycled materials, from small appliances to large ones, including front load washer dryers.
Utilization of sustainable materials

Use of resins with low environmental impact
We are reducing the use of virgin raw materials by actively adopting recycled resins and naturally derived materials for the bodies of our home appliances. The products we create are eco- and life-friendly, while maintaining our high standards of safety, functionality, and design.
Repair/Maintenance

Heat Pump Unit Cleaning Service Package
In 2005, Panasonic became the first company in the world to introduce heat pump drying in washer dryers. To ensure the longevity of our energy-saving heat pump drying system, we provide cleaning services for heat pump units and hot air ducts by our highly skilled staff.
Product as a service

noiful - "not owning is fulfilling"
We offer noiful ROOM, a home appliance subscription service for rental housing, and noiful LIFE, which provides renovation of rental properties with attention to interior details, such as the placement of home appliances we provide. We help achieve the circulation of lifestyles, homes, and goods through a plentiful life without owning.
Environmentally friendly use of home appliances

Energy-efficient operations and less food loss through AI
In addition to the energy-saving design of each product, our AI system automatically saves energy according to each customer's usage and daily rhythm. For refrigerators, on top of calibrated AI energy-saving operations, images are also automatically taken and recognized, after which a synced app suggests recipes based on the estimated shelf life, thereby reducing food loss.
Refurbish

Panasonic Factory Refresh
Driven by the desire to cherish our limited resources, we are engaged in activities to refurbish and resell home appliances that have returned to our group for various reasons. All products shipped meet the strict quality standards supervised by our group.
Eco-experiential Learning

As part of our efforts to communicate with local communities through environmental activities, we have been conducting Eco-experiential Learning programs at elementary schools at the Kusatsu Plant since 2007. The program is intended to provide an opportunity for students to learn both the ingenuity of manufacturing and environmental initiatives that are unique to our company, acquired through our long history in the home appliance business, and to offer a starting point for children to become environmentally aware so they can think and act on their own initiative.
