Specific Benefits of Integration

Promotion of company-wide environmental target "Environmental Action Plan" and even dispersal of measures across the company.
Enhancement of company-wide development and promotion of product environmental measures, such as the development of energy-saving products, as well as compliance with the harmful chemical substance regulations set forth in the RoHS directive enacted in the EU.
Swift collection of environment-related information, and even dispersal across the company.
Consolidation of all environment-related business activities for improved efficiency.
Reduction in labor due to cutback in man-hour auditing, as well as a reduction in costs previously earmarked for external agencies.
In the future, we will broaden our EMS implementation activities from the five major manufacturing subsidiaries in Japan*, and by fiscal 2006, achieve group-wide integration. We will further promote EMS implementation activities, focusing on system integration of other offices in Japan and overseas. Moreover, we will start reviewing system integration of ISO14001 and ISO9001 (quality management system).
