Resources and Waste
Basic Approach
Under the vision of “leaving nature and resources to posterity”, FANUC promotes the efficient use of resources, and proper disposal and reduction of waste. We will provide our lifetime maintenance for our products as long as they are used by our customers. As our customers do not need to discard older used products or purchase new models due to such maintenance service, they will eventually reduce wastes and enjoy effective use of resources. In addition, we reduce waste and make effective use of resources in every aspect of our business activities, including development and packaging of our products and reuse of materials, as well as thoroughly managing the use of chemical substances.
Promotion Framework
FANUC recognizes addressing resource and waste management as an important issue, with the President and CEO designated as the person responsible for the related initiatives. Important subjects relating to this management are reported to the board after discussions and summarizations in our environmental management and promotion committee meetings.
Thorough management of chemical substances
FANUC uses chemical substances as raw materials in production process, but we are working to reduce the use of substances to the absolute minimum. To ensure that our customers around the world can safely use FANUC products, we are working to comply with chemical substance management regulations in each country and region, and even voluntarily comply with stricter regulations. FANUC conducts surveys of its business partners regarding their response to the RoHS Directive, U.S. TSCA Regulations, and substances newly added to the Substances of Very High Concern (SVHC) list under the REACH Regulation that are contained in their products.
