INITIATIVES FOR SDGs

INITIATIVE FOR SDGs

SDGs

The Air Water Group has declared its Sustainability Vision for 2050 as “Achieve a recycling-oriented society through coexistence with society and the earth.” Further, with 2030 as a milestone, we are promoting initiatives towards the achievement of sustainable development goals (SDGs) through our business activities based on the Air Water Group’s “Meeting society’s needs with nature’s blessings” as our SDGs communication concept.
Through our business activities, we strive to achieve a recycling society (zero environmental impact, revive the global environment, etc.), continue to be selected by local communities and customers, and achieve the well-being of our employees.

SDG Initiative Themes

Having created a roadmap by which we aim to bring about our Sustainability Vision of "achieving a recycling-oriented society through coexistence with society and the earth," we are working toward the SDGs by checking the progress of our activities and implementing PDCA cycles every year.

Strengthening the positive effects through our business activities, with regard to the negative impacts such as CO2 emissions we will focus on reducing risks from a medium- to long-term perspective while setting themes that will help enable us to minimize those impacts. Integrating its RC activities and business activities with the SDGs and work across the entire company, Air Water Performance Chemical will help to realize a sustainable society.
