Top Commitment
Working Towards the Realization of a Sustainable Society
Our Commitment We are committed to expanding the circle of sustainability through technology and products, helping to build a more sustainable society.
At RISU Plastic Group, one of our founding principles is to contribute to society through business.
As society undergoes significant change, we continue to strengthen our role as a corporate group that creates value for people, communities, and future generations.
We believe we have a responsibility to help preserve a sustainable planet for our children, grandchildren, and those who follow. This means reducing our reliance on finite resources and addressing environmental challenges through responsible business practices.
Climate change, rising CO₂ emissions, biodiversity loss, and resource depletion are global issues that require action from companies, individuals, and governments alike. As a manufacturer, we recognize our responsibility to address these challenges through the products we develop, the technologies we advance, and the way we conduct our operations.
Guided by our commitment to “Expanding the Circle of Sustainability Through Technology and Products,” RISU Plastic Group works to create environmentally conscious products and promote their wider adoption. We also strive to strengthen collaboration among our employees, customers, suppliers, and communities.
Through these efforts, we aim to support more sustainable lifestyles and help build a society that is both secure and prosperous.
Our Commitment to a More Sustainable Future
At RISU Plastic Group, we believe that creating value for society is one of our most important responsibilities.
As environmental challenges become increasingly urgent, companies must look beyond short-term business results and consider the impact of their products and operations on future generations. We have a responsibility to reduce our reliance on finite resources and to help build a more sustainable society for our children, grandchildren, and those who come after them.
For this reason, RISU Plastic Group is actively working to reduce the use of petroleum-based plastics by expanding the use of plant-based plastics and other environmentally conscious materials.
Plant-based plastics are made from renewable resources. Because plants absorb CO₂ as they grow, these materials can help reduce dependence on fossil resources and support a more carbon-conscious product lifecycle. In the food packaging field, we have long been committed to developing and promoting bio-based packaging products. We are also expanding these efforts into a wide range of industrial applications.
At the same time, we are working to reduce energy consumption throughout the lifecycle of our products. By replacing conventional heavy materials with lightweight and durable alternatives, we can help reduce energy use in transportation, handling, and other stages of use.
One example is TECCELL, our lightweight and durable honeycomb-structure material. Through the development of TECCELL, we have achieved lighter product designs while helping reduce material use and energy consumption. We are also advancing plastic recycling and developing returnable products that can be used efficiently and repeatedly.
However, environmental value alone is not enough. Products must also provide practical benefits and economic value for our customers. That is why we continue to build on more than 70 years of manufacturing expertise while introducing new technologies and materials that enable us to create innovative, reliable, and environmentally conscious products.
Guided by our commitment to expand the circle of sustainability through technology and products, all of us at RISU Plastic Group will continue working together with our customers, suppliers, and communities to create a more sustainable future.
