ENVIRONMENTAL ACTIVITIES
M.WATANABE had been operating ISO14001 2004 version for about 13 years (since January 2005). Our environment management system (EMS) is constructed to attempt continuous improvement through PDCA cycle and eco-activities and to spread awareness to employees and related parties. Sales activities of eco-friendly products, including recycling, is managed by the EMS plan implementation which results in the integration of positive business management. Considering the achievement and result, we judged we have reached a certain level with our environmental effort and can manage the system by ourselves, and we decided to return ISO14001 certification on August 19, 2018. Although we returned our IOS14001 certification, we will continue environmantal preservation activities under our own EMS system without the need for a third-party certification.
