Message from the President
YUASA CO., LTD. has formulated a “Sustainability Declaration” based on its corporate philosophy in order to further evolve the management foundation that has been passed down for over 360 years and connect it to the future to come.
The Sustainability Declaration is comprised of Harmony with the Global Environment, Business Activities for Service with Good Products, and Management that Respects Humanity. To provide the framework to realize the Sustainability Declaration, we have established a Sustainability Promotion Committee, which is chaired by the Representative Director and Senior Managing Director, and the IR & Sustainability Promotion Office inside the General Affairs Department, to promote the action plans.
Specifically, centered on the promotion of “Environment and Energy,” which is one of the growth strategies of YUASA CO., LTD., we aim to reduce emissions across the entire supply chain by supporting decarbonization in manufacturing processes and expanding sales of energy-saving products. In response to biodiversity, in 2022, we started the YUASA Forest Project for environmental conservation through mangrove-planting activities in the Sungai Merbok Forest Reserve in Kedah, Malaysia, and conduct tree planting and environmental education programs.
The phrase “service with good products,” which appears in our Sustainability Declaration, is something the YUASA Group has long valued. It reflects the business ethics that have remained unchanged at our company since it was first established, which emphasize serving the market by providing good-quality products and helping realize sustainability.
Going forward, with the Sustainability Declaration as our guiding principle, we will continue working with our stakeholders to enhance corporate value and realize a sustainable society.
