Biodiversity

In addition to “protecting the natural environment,” as stated in our Environmental Policy, the group has identified “biodiversity” as a material issue. Forest resources are the main raw material for paper, and increased efforts to conserve biodiversity may lead to stricter regulations and higher costs in the procurement of raw materials used in the production of paper. In addition, it is essential to sell paper made with wood from properly managed forests, so as to have minimal impact on animal life and the natural environment.

We aim to achieve sustainable wood consumption that does not lead to the destruction or degradation of forests. As such, we have acquired FSC® and PEFC Chain of Custody Certification (CoC Certification), both of which are global forest certification systems.
