Approach to Environmental Sustainability
In January 2022, FUJIFILM Holdings announced new climate action targets to reduce CO2 emissions as it accelerates initiatives towards a zero-carbon future. Fujifilm Group will be fully operating on carbon-free energy and achieve net zero CO2 emissions by the Fiscal Year ending
March 2041 (FY2040). It will also reduce CO2 emissions across the entire product life cycle from the procurement of raw materials to manufacturing, transportation, use and disposal by 50% (compared to FY2019 levels) by FY2030. To achieve these targets, Fujifilm launched a new Fujifilm Group environmental strategy, "Green Value Climate Strategy", which includes promoting "Green Value Manufacturing" - a strategy to manufacture with a lower environmental impact, and delivering "Green Value Products" with excellent environmental performance.
Fujifilm Group "Green Value Products" Certification Program
This certification program sets certification criteria by product category with different weights according to the use and features of each product through its entire life cycle. We clarify the environmental value of each product by conducting environmentally conscious design assessments based on such certification criteria at the time of product development. We then select candidate products for certification based on the total score by each assessment item. The candidate products will be reviewed and approved by the Group Certification Council, and finally certified as the Fujifilm Group "Green Value Products".
This certification program is implemented in compliance with the requirements of the international standard "ISO14021 Self-declared Environmental Claims" and obtains the opinions of external experts in order to ensure the objectivity, reliability, and transparency of the program. When we introduced the program, we obtained advice from Professor Norihiro Itsubo at the Tokyo City University.
Organizations and Flow Chart of the Certification Program
Assessment Item
The certification criteria is determined for the entire life cycle of each product with a different weight for each assessment item, by comprehensively assessing the environmental items such as "measures for climate change", "resource saving and cycling," "risk minimization for chemical substances," and "biodiversity" as well as social requirements for each business/product category.
Certification Ranks
We classify products into three certification ranks (diamond, gold, and silver) according to the degree of their contribution to the reduction of environmental impact.
| Rank | Certification Criteria |
| Diamond | Products and Services that use their respective industries' innovative technologies to substantially contribute to reducing environmental impact. |
| Gold | Products and Services that reduce environmental impact at their respective industries' highest level. |
| Silver | Products and Services that reduce environmental impact at a higher level than their respective industries' standard. |
