Sports Support Initiatives
Nichiban supports the spread of injury prevention and the education of trainers as an official partner of the Japan Sports Association. In addition to providing taping for the athletic trainer's certification test certified by the Japan Sports Association, we also conducted educational activities for sports instructors on how to use emergency bandages. We will continue to support the training of next-generation athletic trainers.
Awareness Program Conducting Onsite Classes at Elementary Schools
In fiscal 2022, we held onsite classes at 25 elementary schools that applied for them when participating in the Nichiban Tape Core ECO Project.
Since the 10th round of the Nichiban Tape Core ECO Project in 2019, we have held classes on the subject of cellulose tape. These classes emphasize the importance of eco-friendly materials that can be easily sorted when disposed, recycling efforts, and environmental problems, while brainstorming with students on what we as individuals can do for a greener Earth.
There are many requests for onsite classes during the first half of each school year (May to mid-July), which have been very well received.
Providing Work Experience to Local Junior High Schools
Aichi Prefecture is promoting a “Career Start Project (junior high school students)” to increase opportunities for youth to learn about the importance of work and the motivation to work. In cooperation with this project, we accept students from local junior high schools for “Career Start Week (work experience learning)” at the Tape Anjo Factory and Nichiban Techno Co., Ltd.
Support for Peacevillage International in Germany
Peacevillage International is an NGO in Germany that supports children affected by conflict who are unable to receive proper medical treatment in their home countries. Currently 168 children from Afghanistan, Angola, and other countries are living at the facility while receiving medical care.
NICHIBAN EUROPE is putting into practice “Society,” an element of the Nichiban Group’s Corporate Philosophy and Action Guidelines, through such activities as the free provision of medical products since 2019 and donations since 2022.
