Wastes and Valuables

Results Target
Global (Japan)
Recycled amount [t] 74,705 37,870
Factory Waste Recycling rate
Global: 99.0% or more
Final disposal amount [t] 467 22
Factory waste recycling rate*1 [%] 99.4% 99.9%

*1 Factory waste recycling rate = Amount of resources recycled / (Amount of resources recycled + Amount of landfill)
We achieved the target of factory waste recycling rate by promoting effective use of resources.

* Above data on this report are rounded off to integers (factory waste recycling rates are rounded second decimal place).
