In order to protect rice, water, and the natural environment, which are indispensable for sake brewing, we are actively working to reduce CO₂ emissions. Specifically, we are actively marketing products that use "bottle cans (made of aluminum)," which are lighter and more volumetrically efficient containers that can be expected to reduce the environmental impact of transportation and are also highly recyclable. Reduction of CO₂ emissions by increasing the ratio of LED lighting in the factory. We are also "paperless" by introducing electronic seals, encouraging data storage, and digitizing internal applications. In addition, we are actively adopting environmentally friendly materials for products and transportation. Paper containers, cardboard, straws, and other materials are being replaced with certified forest paper and biomass materials. The outer packaging of Kesera-Cera cosmetics is made of bagasse, which is derived from sugarcane and is used as an alternative raw material to wood pulp, thereby contributing to forest protection, CO₂ reduction, and energy conservation. In this way, we will actively promote "switching to materials with low environmental impact" and "efforts to reduce CO₂ emissions," and work to improve both our corporate activities that are friendly to the global environment and our customers' satisfaction.
