OKI’s Environmental Challenge
May 2, 2019
The OEM announced it has established a group environmental vision named “OKI Environmental Challenge 2030/2050.”
Oki says, addressing global environmental problems is closely tied to sustainable corporate growth. More and more emphasis is being placed on corporate management that is conscious of social issues including environmental problems, such as the 2015 Paris Agreement, acceleration of global environmental initiatives, and the expansion of ESG investing. OKI aims to prevent global warming and contribute to the achievement of SDGs by promoting integration of management and the environment and taking advantage of the collective strength of the group.
With the OKI Environmental Challenge 2030/2050, OKI will engage in innovative and creative activities with a wide range of partners to prevent global warming and aims to achieve a 40 percent reduction in life-cycle CO2 emissions by the fiscal year 2030 and an 80 percent reduction by fiscal year 2050.
To contribute to the achievement of SDGs, OKI will create innovative products and services and deliver solutions that contribute to solving various environmental issues. Additionally, within the supply chain, including workplaces, OKI will promote the achievement of innovative “Mono-zukuri” (having the spirit and mindset to innovate, create and improve products) and “Koto-zukuri” (working together, proactively seeking opportunities that deliver value to customers). Furthermore, looking ahead to 2050, the group will promote innovation of products and services that contribute to solving environmental issues, including preventing global warming and adapting to climate change, as well as development and sales of such products and services. Through these activities, OKI will contribute to the achievement of a sustainable society.
Since its founding in 1881, OKI has engaged in business to contribute to solving social issues. In recent years the group has pursued business opportunities and promoted innovation by solving social issues, starting from SDGs. Taking a medium- to long-term stance, OKI Environmental Challenge 2030/2050 was established to accelerate those efforts. Through this initiative, OKI will continue its journey as a corporate group that supports safer and more convenient social infrastructure.
