Panasonic GREEN IMPACT

A more sustainable, more equitable future

Since our founding, Panasonic has aimed to produce technology solutions that make the world a better place for all. It is clear that the most important thing we can do to deliver on this promise is to take direct actions that counteract the effects of climate change on our planet and restore the promise of a fulfilling life for future generations. Because if nothing changes, everything changes.

Panasonic GREEN IMPACT by the numbers

By 2024

Create more net-zero factories. Recycle nearly all factory waste. Double our use of recycle resin. Nearly triple the number of our business that fit into the circular economy model.

By 2030

Achieve net-zero in-house emissions. Reduce CO2 emissions from our own value chain by 110 millions tons.

By 2050

Reduce CO2 emissions from our own value chain and those of society by 300 million tons, or 1% of current global emissions, through products, services and new technologies that help others avoid emissions.

We are lowering CO₂ emissions by reducing both our own impact and the impact of society.

“In truth, without the resources of the world, there will be no businesses. Depleting natural resources will make it difficult for businesses to survive in the future. Businesses must think differently to have a business in the future.”

Rethinking unsustainable systems

Panasonic believes that all businesses must approach manufacturing and business practices differently.

Alternative Energy

At, Panasonic, we’re constantly exploring new technologies such as lighter, more powerful solar panels that can be used by more people in more places. We won’t stop until renewable energy is available to everyone.

Built to Last

Panasonic products are built to last. To help create a more sustainable future, we must now design products with their end in mind - ensuring that they can be reused and refurbished to avoid the permanent lost of precious resources.

Circular Economy

Because prevailing business systems are linear and create unnecessary waste, we’re advocating for a circular economy model that regenerates end-of-life products to eliminate waste, safeguard resources and reduce pollution.

Tough questions

As we deepen our commitment to sustainability, we’re asking ourselves these questions to continuously hold ourselves accountable.
