the Sustainability Committee

The TSUGAMI Group recognizes sustainability as an important management issue.
To continue developing social and economic activities in a sustainable manner, enterprises will be required to break away from preconceived notions and adopt business models that anticipate a new type of society.

The TSUGAMI Group brings convenience to the lives of people around the world and contributes to industrial and social development by supplying high-precision, high-speed and high-rigidity machine tools that are essential in many industries for producing components such as parts for automobile equipment, IT-related equipment, medical equipment and home electric appliances. We will continue contributing to the development of a sustainable society through the provision of advanced technologies and products which anticipate industrial restructuring driven by technological change, in line with our basic management policy "to contribute to society by constantly anticipating market needs and generating new value, underpinned by the precision technologies we have been developing since the company was first established."

Meanwhile, the global operating environment, including the economic situation, the natural environment, science and technology, is changing at a dizzying pace. Against this backdrop, the role played by enterprises in resolving the complex and difficult issues facing society is becoming increasingly important. The TSUGAMI Group will tackle sustainability issues, especially environmental and social issues, through its business activities, using precision technologies as a basis for consistently anticipating market needs and contributing to the realization of a sustainable society through the creation of new value. We believe that, as a result of these efforts, we will earn the trust of our stakeholders, which will in turn improve our corporate sustainability.

In April 2021, we established the Sustainability Committee, which is overseen by the Board of Directors, to expedite strategies to promote sustainability across the TSUGAMI Group. In May 2021, we signed the UN Global Compact (UNGC), which consists of ten principles advocated by the United Nations in the four key areas of human rights, labor, the environment, and anti-corruption. We endorse the UNGC principles and will focus on ESG (environmental, social and governance) concerns in line with international initiatives.

In June 2022, we announced our support for the recommendations of the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD).
We will conduct an assessment and analysis of the business risks and opportunities that climate change presents for the TSUGAMI Group, implement measures to address these risks and opportunities, and make climate-related information disclosures.

The TSUGAMI Group will continue to achieve sustainable growth and development, with technical expertise and human resources as core drivers, and will also actively focus on resolving social issues through its main business.
We sincerely ask all of our stakeholders for your continued support.

Sustainability Committee, TSUGAMI CORPORATION
