Sustainability Medium-term Plan for Product

Circular Economy

The Kuraray Group is working to address the issue of transitioning to a circular economy as a company that develops products made from fossil raw materials. During “PASSION 2026” period, we will aim to challenge on the themes indicated below and reduce in the use of fossil raw materials and the amount of waste generated over the life cycle of the products by co-working with the supply chain.
 In 2023, as part of our efforts to reduce GHG Scope 3 emissions, we studied initiatives to reduce the use of fossil raw materials by converting existing raw materials to recycled or bio-based raw materials and reusing products and raw materials, etc. By 2024, we will set GHG Scope 3 emissions reduction targets and promote each reduction initiative.
