Developing Environmental Management Systems and Adding Impetus to Environmental Protection

Within the Ryobi Group, 18 facilities in 13 companies have acquired ISO 14001 certification for their environmental management systems. In establishing environmental targets and objectives, each company and facility is working to reduce energy and resource consumption, minimize waste material and cut back on greenhouse gas emissions.

Promoting Further Social Contribution Activities

Ryobi energetically encourages its employees' social contributions, which involve participation in aluminum can salvage campaigns, cleaning activities in river areas and on the roads around Ryobi plants and offices, as well as the holding of charity bazaars and blood drives. In 2004, Ryobi established a nonprofit organization (NPO), the Ryobi Social Contribution Foundation, which primarily donates goods, provides funding and dispatches volunteers to social welfare and NPOs as well as volunteer and other groups.

Value the Trust and Goodwill of Society

To be widely trusted by society, we must maintain a corporate structure in which corporate activities are conducted equitably, ethically, and in compliance with statutory regulations. Placing importance on compliance we therefore established the Ryobi Compliance Committee to promote and ensure compliance. Ryobi is working to ensure that its corporate activities meet the highest ethical principles, as outlined in the Ryobi Code of Conduct.
