Community Beautification

We engage in cleanup activities around our plants and along commuting routes.
These activities are also opportunities to engage with local communities and raise the environmental awareness of employees.

Hiroshima Plant

Since 2003, the Hiroshima Plant has held a clean campaign twice a year to clean routes around the company.
With the cooperation of local residents as well as employees, the 38th clean campaign in June 2024 was conducted by a total of 76 people. (The 39th campaign, scheduled for November 2024, was canceled due to rain.)
In February 2024, we received an award from Hiroshima City for 20 years of environmental beautification activities in recognition of our ongoing activities as a place for community contribution and interaction.

Yokohama Plant

As part of our community contribution activities, the Yokohama Plant conducts beautification activities for commuting routes as part of the annual training for new employees, and all employees also conduct beautification activities inside and outside the premises every year.
In fiscal 2024, we carried out beautification activities on commuting routes in April and beautification activities inside and outside the premises in June.

Meiki Plant

At the Meiki Plant, employees carry out beautification activities outside the premises twice a year as a community contribution activity.
In fiscal 2024, we collected trash from the side roads around the plant twice in May and October, and properly separated and disposed of a total of approximately 73 kg of trash.

Education

We conduct plant tours, workplace tours and work experience activities.
We view these as opportunities to interact with local communities and convey the appeal of monozukuri to students and other visitors.

Community Exchanges

Hiroshima Skill Fair

On November 6, 2024, we co-sponsored and exhibited at the "41th Hiroshima Skill Fair" organized by Hiroshima Prefecture and the Hiroshima Vocational Ability Development Association.
A total of 139 people, mainly elementary, junior high, and high school students, visited our booth, which was a great success.
In addition to a demonstration of plastic block molding using a small injection molding machine, we set up a stainless steel polishing corner. Visitors to the booth were able to experience the actual polishing process in our factory in a simplified manner, and were able to experience the fun and difficulty of manufacturing.
