Data on Environmental Impacts by Production Site in Japan

  • 2011, totals were calculated from April through the following March. From 2012, from January to December.
  • CO2 emissions indicate total amount scope1 and scope 2.
  • COD load reflects subtraction at the swage treatment plant based on the subtraction ratio.
  • VOC emissions indicate total amount of the 100 substances(VOC) exemplified by the Ministry of the Environment.
