Climate Change

By fiscal 2025, reduce CO₂ emissions by 35% from 2018 levels
By fiscal 2030, reduce CO₂ emissions by 50% from 2018 levels

Scope1：Direct GHG emissions by the Company (emissions from fuel combustion, on-site power generation, and industrial processes) 
Scope2：Indirect emissions resulting from the use of electricity and heat supplied by other companies (e.g. emissions associated with electricity purchased from electric power companies)

We are a machinery manufacturer that performs processing of precision parts in-house. Over 99% of the energy that we consume consists of power for our production plants, and the amount of water that we use for cutting and processing is considerable as well. Production volume is increasing for products that process semiconductors using water, as is the volume of water used for inspection, adjustment, test processing, and other work. We are striving to reduce the consumption of electricity and water. Moreover, as the equipment has large numbers of mechanical parts and many paper drawings are used for parts processing and assembly, we are working to use electronic data in processing and assembly to reduce the use of paper. We are also striving to recycle metal processing scrap and waste liquid from processing as much as possible. 

In order to respond to climate change, Tokyo Seimitsu is working on the development of environmentally friendly products. In addition to conducting an LCA as a mandatory task during new product development screening, we also evaluate the environmental impact of conventional products. We have established “eco-products” as products that are developed, manufactured, and improved according to LCAs. As a responsible manufacturing company, we contribute to the realization of a decarbonized society.

Almost all the greenhouse gases emitted by the Company are from the CO₂ equivalent of electricity purchased and used in the operation of the Hachioji Plant and Tsuchiura Plant. As a global warming prevention measure, we are focusing on conserving electricity.

The Company also manufactures freezers that use HFC* gases, for use in semiconductor manufacturing equipment. We properly manage the refrigerant gas, discharging almost no gas to the outside. We are also switching to gas refrigerants that have low global warming potentials.

Unit: t-CO₂
