MITSUBA Environmental Vision 2046

MITSUBA Group established the “MITSUBA Environmental Vision 2046” in May 2017 as a unified long-term goal for the entire Group. This vision is a long-term goal to achieve the "creation of a safe and abundant environment" stated in the Environmental Declaration. To accomplish this, we aim to "enhance corporate value" through reducing CO2 emissions and resource consumption, while simultaneously "preserving nature" by eliminating environmental pollution risks. We have set 2046, the year of MITSUBA’s 100th anniversary, as the target year for achieving these objectives.
