In FY 2011, we reduced the amount of waste we generated (general waste and industrial waste) to 24,000 tons, a drop of 43% compared with the previous fiscal year. This was achieved by selling off waste as new resources, and was also the result of a decrease in production levels. Since FY 2007, we have been managing waste generation in terms of how much waste is generated per unit of actual sales, in the same way as CO2 emissions. This system was introduced to improve resource productivity. In FY 2011, we generated 42% less waste per unit of actual sales than in FY 2006.
We also maintained our target of zero waste emissions for the NEC Group. This was achieved by conducting regular inspections of our waste disposal subcontractors to ensure that waste was being disposed and offering advice to improve the overall level of recycling.
*Scope: NEC Japan (headquarters area, 4 plants, and laboratories) and consolidated affiliates and subsidiaries
