Comment from the Factory Manager
For more than 30 years, the Saitama Factory has been working for protecting the environment, doing things such as producing our kraft tapes using hot melt coating, which is a solventless manufacturing method. Recently, we have been focusing on areas that can lead to waste reduction, such as increasing the number of dedicated spaces for waste separation as well as installing power and steam monitoring systems. We are aware of the fact that small improvements accumulate and eventually produce significant results, and are working on further environmental considerations.

Anjo Tape Factory
3-1-1, Nihongishinmachi, Anjo City, Aichi 446-8563
Comment from the Factory Manager
The Anjo Tape Factory is part of a “developing town” with the opening of the Tokaido Shinkansen Mikawa-Anjo Station in the immediate vicinity. At this factory which manufactures consumer products such as our main product Self adhesive cellulose tape, we are working to provide products that customers can recognize as environmentally friendly. Since the factory was the first to register ISO14001 in-house, we are working as a top runner to improve our environmental management system.

Medical Anjo Factory
446-8531 3-1-1, Nihongishinmachi, Anjo City, Aichi
Comment from the Factory Manager
The Anjo Medical Factory was relocated from the former Osaka Factory and was completed in January 2018. As a pharmaceutical production factory, we have a mission to consider not only quality but also safety and the environment, and we are working towards continuous improvement every day. We have considered conservation of natural resources through using LED lighting throughout the building, collecting waste heat from the steam drain and using air-conditioning equipment with high energy saving rates. As for manufacturing, we are working to minimize environmental impact through applying a solventless coating method.
