Biodiversity

We believe it is important for the group to sell products that contribute to biodiversity conservation, including paper made from forest resources that are properly managed so as to not harm forest ecosystems or the natural environment.
In addition to “protecting the natural environment,” as stated in our Environmental Policy, the group has identified “biodiversity” as a material issue. Going forward, we will work to better understand the group’s dependence on nature and the related impacts, risks, and opportunities in order to achieve nature-positive outcomes with regard to sustainable forest resources.

The forest certification system is a process in which thirdparty organizations certify forests and their products as being properly managed. We have acquired FSC® and PEFC Chain of Custody (CoC) certifications, both of which are global forest certification systems.
